Ned Batchelder: A Python gargoyle

Monday 26 February 2018In the #python IRC channel today, someone asked:Does anyone know of any libraries that could convert ‘1-5,7,9,10-13’ to [1,2,3,4,5,7,9,10,11,12,13] ?This seemed like an interesting challenge, and people started offering code. This was mine. It’s ungainly and surprising, and I wouldn’t want to keep it, so I call it a gargoyle:[    i for p in s.split(',')    for a, _, b in [p.partition('-')]    for i in range(int(a), int(b or a)+1)
