Can anyone - maybe one of the Python language core team,

     [x for x in x for x in x]

I'll give this +1 for playfulness, and -2 for lack of clarity.

I hope no one thinks this sort of thing is good to do in real-life code.


You might try this to flatten a list of lists:

>>> from functools import reduce

>>> import operator

>>> import operator as λ

>>> reduce(λ.add, l)

[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
