Overview
A comprehension is a filter and a transform in one line. Readable when the logic is small, unreadable the moment you nest three of them.
In this lesson you will:
- Transform and filter a sequence in one expression
- Build dict and set comprehensions
- Know when a plain loop is clearer
Pro Tip
