In our last #ThursdayTipsandTricks we showed how you can create lists with one line of code using list comprehensions in #Python. Well you can also create dictionaries and sets using a similar syntax! We think comprehensions are pretty handy:

List Comprehensions are our favorite way to create lists in Python!. ```.names = ["Sarah", "Katie", "Hayley"].[name for name in names if "y" in name and name.startswith("H")].#> ['Hayley']. [name.upper() for name in names].#> ['SARAH', 'KATIE','HAYLEY'].```.#ThursdayTipsAndTricks.

Want a reason to upgrade your code base to Python 3.5+? Seamlessly merge 2 dictionaries like so:. 2019Facilitators= {1:"Kelly", 2:"Audrey", 3:"Zena"}.2021Facilitators = {2:"Audrey", 4:"Sarah", 5:"Katie"}.all = {**2019Facilitators, **2021Facilitators}. #ThursdayTipsandTricks.

So you write a fancy function that has multiple outputs. How do you return them all? Easy, peasy in Python!. def my_func(arg1):. x=arg1+1. y=arg1*2. z=arg1-3. return x,y,z.a, b, c = x(arg1). Now the variables a, b, & c have the output from my_func! #ThursdayTipsAndTricks.

Sometimes we're all a little random. Even Python! . import random as r.my_list = ["girls", "who", "code", "at", "UM", "DCMB"].print(r.choice(my_list)). Use this method to pick a random element from list, tuple, or string (anything indexable). #ThursdayTipsAndTricks.
