Here are the tricky examples of list comprehension. These examples useful for your project and interviews as well. 1. Printing odd numbers Reminder checking logic used here. If it is not equal to zero when you divide the number with 2, it treats the input number as odd and prints it. lst1 = [x for x in range(40) if x % 2 != 0] print('First 20 Odd Numbers:') print(lst1) 2. Printing even numbers Reminder checking logic used here. If it is equal to zero when you divide the number with 2, it treats the input number as even and prints it. lst2 = [x for x in range(40) if x % 2 == 0] print('First 20 Even Numbers:') print(lst2) Output from the Python scripts First 20 Odd Numbers:  [1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19, 21, 23, 25, 27, 29, 31, 33, 35, 37, 39] First 20 Even Numbers:  [0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28, 30, 32, 34, 36, 38]  ** Process exited - Return Code: 0 ** Press Enter to exit terminal Related The real use of Git in Dev Ops
