How to Filter Even Numbers and Square Them in Python
Create two beginner-friendly helper functions that filter even numbers and compute squares of a number list using loops, then print the results along with the sum and average.
def get_even_numbers(numbers):
evens = []
for num in numbers:
if num % 2 == 0:
evens.append(num)
return evens
def get_squares(numbers):
squares = []
for num in numbers:
squares.append(num ** 2)
return squares
numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10]
even_numbers …Count Data in Python with Comprehensions and Generators
Count list items with a dict comprehension and generate squares lazily with a generator expression, printing both results.
from collections import Counter
data = ["apple", "banana", "apple", "cherry", "banana", "apple"]
counts = {item: data.count(item) for item in set(data)}
square_gen = (x * x for x in range(5))
squares = list(square_gen)
if __name__ == "__main__":
print("Manual count:", counts)
print("Counter:", dict(Counter…How to Use Comprehensions and Generators to Check Data in Python
A beginner-friendly helper that filters numeric values, computes squares and cubes with comprehensions and a generator, and returns a summary dictionary.
def check_data(iterable):
"""Return a summary of numeric data using comprehensions and a generator."""
values = [item for item in iterable if isinstance(item, (int, float))]
squares = [x ** 2 for x in values if x > 0]
cubes = (x ** 3 for x in values if x > 0)
cube_list = list(cubes)
return {
…Sum of Squares with a Generator Expression in Python
This code computes the sum of squares of integers from 1 to n using a generator expression, demonstrating a memory-efficient and concise way to aggregate a sequence.
def sum_of_squares(n):
return sum(x * x for x in range(1, n + 1))
if __name__ == "__main__":
print(f"Sum of squares from 1 to 5: {sum_of_squares(5)}")
print(f"Sum of squares from 1 to 10: {sum_of_squares(10)}")Browse by section
