Pylint prefers list comprehension over filter...

Show all headers | View raw

Greetings,

Below is the code that I mentioned in an earlier thread.

     string = "Whiskey Tango Foxtrot"
     ''.join(list(filter(str.isupper, string)))

     'WTF'

That works fine and dandy. Except Pylint doesn't like it. According to 
this link, list comprehensions have replaced filters and the Pylint 
warning can be disabled.

Here's the replacement code using list comprehension:

     ''.join([x for x in string if x.isupper()])

Which is one is correct (Pythonic)? Or does it matter?

Thank you,

Chris R.
