It is probably worth noting that list comprehensions do not require
that you write a new function; they take any expression where
appropriate. For more information on list comprehensions, see:

http://docs.python.org/tut/node7.html#SECTION007140000000000000000

Generator expressions are the same, except syntactically they have
round brackets instead of square, and they return a generator instead
of a list, which allows for lazy evaluation.
