What's the most compact way to repeatedly call a function on a list without accumulating the results?

While I can accumulate results via

a = [f(x) for x in mylist]

or with a generator, there doesn't seem to be a way to do this without accumulating the results. I guess I need to either use the above and ignore the result, or use

for x in mylist: f(x)

Just use this. Simple, readable. No need to get fancy. -- Adam Olsen, aka Rhamphoryncus
