Generating a list of EVEN numbers in Python

Question

Basically I need help in generating even numbers from a list that I have created in Python:

[1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233, 377, 610, 987, 1597         


        

Answer 1

Just for fun, checking if number%2 != 1 also works ;)

evens=[x for x in evens_and_odds if number%2 != 1 ]

Note that you can do some clever things to separate out evens and odds in one loop:

evens=[]
odds=[]
numbers=[ evens, odds ]
for x in evens_and_odds:
    numbers[x%2 == 1].append(x)

print evens
print odds   

The above trick works because logical expressions (==, >, etc.) operating on numbers True (1) and/or False (0).
