Primary Function
Data transformation
Communicative Purpose
Filters numbers that are multiples of both 2 and 5 from a range.
Pattern
[result for item in iterable if condition1 and condition2]
Core Structure
[ ... for ... in ... if ... ]
Função primária
Data transformation
Propósito comunicativo
Filters numbers that are multiples of both 2 and 5 from a range.
Situações de gatilho
Data analysis: extracting numbers that are even and divisible by 5 from a dataset; Interview coding: generating a list of integers that satisfy multiple modulo conditions.
Contextos
Python scripts, data‑processing pipelines, teaching materials for introductory programming.
Padrão
[result for item in iterable if condition1 and condition2]
Estrutura central
[ ... for ... in ... if ... ]
Slots de substituição
result: expression producing each list element, item: element variable from iterable, iterable: any iterable collection, condition1: first boolean predicate, condition2: second boolean predicate
Colocados típicos
- range
- if
- and
- %
- ==
- for
- in
- list comprehension
Substituições comuns
- replace the iterable with any other iterable
- change 'and' to 'or' for alternative logic
- use a function call in the result position
- combine conditions into a single expression such as x%10==0
Erros comuns
using bitwise '&' instead of logical 'and' → SyntaxError or wrong logic; misplacing parentheses causing the condition to apply to the wrong part → unexpected elements in the result; forgetting to close the brackets → SyntaxError; assuming modulo has lower precedence than 'and' → logical error
Similar / contraste
Similar: [x for x in range(20) if x%10==0]; Contrast: filter(lambda x: x%2==0 and x%5==0, range(20)) which returns an iterator instead of a list
Interferências
Coming from C: using && instead of 'and' will cause a syntax error in Python; Coming from JavaScript: assuming && short‑circuits the same way but forgetting Python's 'and' precedence can lead to unexpected results.
Família do chunk
- list comprehension filters
- conditional list comprehensions
- generator expressions
Nuance
Do not use this pattern when the dataset is huge and memory consumption matters; list comprehensions build the entire list in memory, which may be slower than a generator expression; the conditions are evaluated left‑to‑right, so the second condition is skipped for items failing the first.
Efeito pragmático
Provides a concise, readable way to filter sequences with multiple criteria, reducing boilerplate loops and making intent explicit.
Dica de memória
Think of a sieve that only lets through numbers that pass both the even and the five‑multiple holes.
Nota
Includes 0 because 0 % n == 0 for any n, so 0 appears in the result when the range starts at 0.
Upgrade path
Use a generator expression for lazy evaluation or employ itertools.filterfalse for more complex predicates.
