Cheatsheet

The following table shows Python list comprehensions and the corresponding SRFI-42 equivalent:

PythonScheme
[process(item) for item in items] (list-ec (:list item items) (process item))
[item for item in range(10)] (list-ec (:range item 10) item)
[item for item in range(10) if test(item)] (list-ec (:range item 10) (if (test item)) item)
[[i, item] for i, item in enumerate(items)] (list-ec (:list item (index i) items) (list i item))
[[k, v] for k in keys for v in values] (list-ec (:list key keys) (:list value values) (list key value))
[[key, value] for key, value in zip(keys, values)] (list-ec (:parallel (:list key keys) (:list value values)) (list key value))
