Python List Comprehension

This post was originally published on The Data School blog between 2018 and July 2025, before our program was renamed to MIP’s Analytics Career Accelerator. References throughout this article to “The Data School” or “DS” all refer to what is now MIP’s Analytics Career Accelerator. The program, its people, and its commitment to launching outstanding analytics careers remain the same – just under a new name.

Introduction

Hi there, this blog is meant to be a tutorial focusing on teaching Python list comprehensions through a video. The video mostly highlights the similarities between for loops and list comprehensions, comparing the two and creating the same output in easy, medium and hard examples. I also displayed the differences that can be seen when trying to create a dictionary in a list comprehension, and the syntax changes from a standard for loop. I hope you enjoy.
