In my code I'm currently doing something like this:
for _ in xrange(n):
f(x)
where f is some arbitrary function that does not return anything (ie just a None) and x is an arbitrary input for this function
I was just wondering whether there is a proper way to do this in one line? There are a lot of functions in python like map, fold, etc that are used to operate on elements of a list, but all of them seem to consider that we are interested in what the function returns.
Doing:
[f(x) for _ in xrange(n)]
is actually working fine, but it returns a whole list of None that I don't need.
two lines is fine and expected.
You could do for _ in range(n): f(x) if you had a good reason, but you probably don't have one of those.
