FYI, you can leave off the square brackets for a small performance boost. That turns it from a list comprehension into a generator expression, which is lazily evaluated and doesn't create a list container (which would immediately be thrown out anyway). It's like the difference between range(n) and xrange(n).



Nice, thanks for the tip.
