if else in a list comprehension

Here's an example of using an if-else statement within a list comprehension:

if-else statement within a list comprehension

numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10]
squared_numbers = [x**2 if x % 2 == 0 else x for x in numbers]
print(squared_numbers)

<div class="alert alert-info flex not-prose"> <span class="hidden md:block">Watch a video course </span> Python - The Practical Guide</div>

This code creates a list numbers containing the integers from 1 to 10, and then creates a new list squared_numbers that contains the squares of the even numbers in numbers, and the original numbers for the odd numbers. The output of this code would be: [1, 4, 3, 16, 5, 36, 7, 64, 9, 100]
