Add an if
into your comprehension like:
l = [y for y in (f(x) for x in [1,2,3,4]) if y is not None]
By placing a Generator Expression inside the list comprehension you will only need to evaluate the function once. In addition the generator expression is a generator so takes no extra intermediate storage.
Python 3.8+
As of Python 3.8 you can use an Assignment Expression (:=)
(AKA: Named Expressions or the Walrus Operator) to avoid multiple evaluations of f()
like:
l = [y for x in [1,2,3,4] if (y := f(x)) is not None]
