List comprehension in Python

a = [ i for i in range( 5 ) ]
# [0, 1, 2, 3, 4]

a = [ i for i in range( 5 ) if 0 == ( i % 2 ) ]
# [0, 2, 4]

# In general any sequence of for and if
a = [ i for ... if ... for ... for ... if ... ]

a = [ i for i in range( 5 ) if 0 == ( i % 2 ) ]

# ... this is the same as ...

a = []
for i in range( 5 ):
    if 0 == ( i % 2 ):
        a.append( i )
