Is the expression inside the [..] compilable for others expressions ?

Question

Such as ; print(i**3) for i in range(11)

Answer 1

[print(i**3) for i in range(11)]
[repr(i**3) for i in range(11)]

"In Python 2, print is a statement, not a function"
https://docs.python.org/2.7/reference/simple_stmts.html#print

Seems nobody has given a deeper reason.

Answer 2

Because you forgot the set of opening and closing parenthesis and put an extra one in.

print(i**3 for i in range(11))

Answer 3

d = {}
[d.update({i:i}) for i in range(11)]
[d[i]=i for i in range(11)]

a = lambda x: 1
a = lambda x: x=1

Finally found a clear explanation!🤣

"A statement in Python is a line of code that provides instruction or commands for Python to perform. A statement never returns any value.

Functions on the other hand are a collection of statements that when called perform an intended action. They are organized and reusable in nature. Functions always return a value."
