A list comprehension in Python is a concise way to create lists. It is a syntactic construct which allows you to create a new list by processing an existing list or other iterable objects. It makes the code smaller, and clearer to read.
The basic syntax of a list comprehension is: [expression for item in list if condition]
For example, if you want to square each number in a list, you could use a list comprehension like this:
squares = [n\*\*2 for n in numbers]
It provides a compact syntax for performing operations on elements in a list, rather than creating an empty list and appending elements one by one using a loop.
