Python list comprehension if without else

Can an if statement in a list comprehension use an else?

Answer: Yes, an else clause can be used with an if in a list comprehension. The following code example shows the use of an else in a simple list comprehension. The if/else is placed in front of them for a component of the list comprehension.

res = ["Yes" if num % 3 == 0 else "No" for num in range(1, 5)]

print(res)

Output: [‘No’, ‘No’, ‘Yes’, ‘No’]
