Python List Comprehension Error: Unexpected Output

Sachin Bhatt

I'm encountering an unexpected output while using list comprehension in Python. I'm trying to create a list of squared values for even numbers in a given range, but the result is unexpected. Here's the code I'm using:

even_numbers = [x for x in range(10) if x % 2 == 0]
squared_values = [x**2 for x in even_numbers]

print(squared_values)

I expected the output to be [0, 4, 16, 36, 64], but instead, I'm getting [0, 4, 16]. It seems like the last even number (8) and its corresponding squared value (64) are missing.

Can someone help me understand why this is happening and how to correct my list comprehension code to get the desired output? Is there something I'm overlooking in my approach? Your insights would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Not that a Qt Python forum is the best for general Python questions, but:
It correctly prints [0, 4, 16, 36, 64]. I suggest you re-examine whatever you claim to be doing. Start by inserting print(even_numbers), you know that squared_values will have the same number of elements as that.
