Hi, Im new to python, and OOP, and am trying to get a handle on list comprehension. Say I have a class Foo with a property called bar: class Foo: def __init__(self): self.bar = random.randint(1,100) and then I make a list of these objects: Newlist = [] for x in range(10): Newlist.append(Foo()) Now, suppose I wanted to triple the value of 'bar', I could always do: for x in range(10): Newlist[x].bar = Newlist[x].bar * 3 but can I do this using list comprehension? Thanks in Advance!
Other answers have been good; to them I'll add the comment that list comprehensions are for *constructing* lists, not manipulating the elements thereof.
