Conditional iteration

[at]

You proposal, seems nice to me but it doesn't work with Python 2.4.3, should
it work with 2.5?

Again I am just wondering if the approach for 

        [x for c x in some_list if some_condition]

and
        x = a if b else c

could be generalized for normal straight forward iterations:

for x in some_list if some_condition:

        --- etc...

I am not looking for a work around but more interest if other people might
judge this syntax would come in handy?

Interested in any feedback!

Kind regards,
