I bet I will remember it from now on. I stuck a few code examples into my 'snips' directory. Generator expressions are new to me. I have seen it's use but I didn't understand what it was and what it was doing, until now.

What meaning is "if k in [0, len(n_trials) - 1] else None"?
Hi,
I am trying to understand the meaning of the below code snippet. Though I have
a Python IDLE at computer, I can't get a way to know below line:
if k in [0, len(n_trials) - 1] else None
I feel it is strange for what returns when the 'if' condition is true?
The second part 'None' is clear to me though.
Could you explain it to me?
thanks,

I just notice that there is a slash character (\) before the if line.
What is it for?
I've learn Python for a while, but I don't use it for more than 2 years now.
Thanks.

Yes, that's important. The entire line of code is:
plt.xlabel("$p$, probability of heads") \
if k in [0, len(n_trials) - 1] else None
The backslash means "this continues on the next line". The ternary
conditional looks like this:
5 if 1 < 2 else 7
Since 1 < 2, this has the value of 5. If not, it would have the value 7.
But the expression result isn't even used. So this is better written:
if k in [0, len(n_trials) - 1]:
plt.xlabel("$p$, probability of heads")

The backslash at the end of the line indicates that that the statement
continues onto the next line, so it's the same as:
plt.xlabel("$p$, probability of heads") if k in [0, len(n_trials) -
1] else None
However, that line is weird!
In Python there's a "ternary operator". The docs say:
"""The expression x if C else y first evaluates the condition, C rather
than x. If C is true, x is evaluated and its value is returned;
otherwise, y is evaluated and its value is returned."""
Suppose you have the expression:
"even" if x % 2 == 0 else "odd"
If x is a multiple of 2, that expression will evaluate to "even", else
it will evaluate to "odd".
The line in your code is misusing it as a statement. Normally you would
write this instead:
if k in [0, len(n_trials) - 1]:
plt.xlabel("$p$, probability of heads")
Why was it written that way? I have no idea, it's just weird...

Since 1 < 2, this has the value of 5. If not, it would have the value 7.
But the expression result isn't even used. So this is better written:
matplotlib.pyplot.xlabel sets x-axis scaling, with no documented return
value.
http://matplotlib.org/api/pyplot_api.html#matplotlib.pyplot.xlabel
If, as seems reasonable to assume, it returns None, the value of the
expression is 'None if x else None', which is to say, None.
if k in [0, len(n_trials) - 1]:
plt.xlabel("$p$, probability of heads")

Hardly matters what the return value is, given that the code ignores it. ChrisA -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
