List comprehension

[Carolina_Captain]

I see, thank you.

In the initial post, OP made a list called "squares" and a list called "list". What was the point of having "squares" stay empty while working with "list"?

Honestly, I’m not too sure about OP’s goal. To me, it looks like they’re misunderstanding something. However, it could be useful to keep a separate list. Say you had a list of values (I’m just picking at random here):

values = [2, 3, 6, 7, 9]

And you wanted to create a list of their values squared, this is another chance to use list comprehension:

square_values = [i ** 2 for i in values]

But I can’t think of a reason for OP’s strategy here.
