three = [n for n in range(0,1000) if '3' in str(n)] | |
print(three) |
I thought 'range(0,1000)' does not actually include 1000. Also wouldn't the first element of the range be zero instead of one?
I have found the following solution without using strings:
numbers=range(1,1001)
r=[i for i in numbers if i%10==3 or (i//10)%10==3 or ((i//10)//10)%10==3 or (((i//10)//10)//10)%10==3]
I think with the string option is better because is the simplest and that's the more legible solution, instead of you can write several conditions to get it without using strings. However, strings are a tool to use to and our goal should be make it easy.
These 3 options work:
x = [i for i in range(1, 1001) if str(i).find("3") != -1]
y = [i for i in range(1, 1001) if str(i).count("3") > 0]
z = [i for i in range(1, 1001) if '3' in str(i)]
print("x ->", x, len(x), "\n")
print("y ->", y, len(y), "\n")
print("z ->", z, len(z))
You could also do it this way:
lst_include3=list(filter(lambda x: '3' in str(x), range(1,1000)))
print(lst_include3)

your answer is missing 171 numbers that has 3 in them which are:
[30, 31, 32, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 130, 131, 132, 134, 135, 136, 137, 138, 139, 230, 231, 232, 234, 235, 236, 237, 238, 239, 300, 301, 302, 304, 305, 306, 307, 308, 309, 310, 311, 312, 314, 315, 316, 317, 318, 319, 320, 321, 322, 324, 325, 326, 327, 328, 329, 330, 331, 332, 334, 335, 336, 337, 338, 339, 340, 341, 342, 344, 345, 346, 347, 348, 349, 350, 351, 352, 354, 355, 356, 357, 358, 359, 360, 361, 362, 364, 365, 366, 367, 368, 369, 370, 371, 372, 374, 375, 376, 377, 378, 379, 380, 381, 382, 384, 385, 386, 387, 388, 389, 390, 391, 392, 394, 395, 396, 397, 398, 399, 430, 431, 432, 434, 435, 436, 437, 438, 439, 530, 531, 532, 534, 535, 536, 537, 538, 539, 630, 631, 632, 634, 635, 636, 637, 638, 639, 730, 731, 732, 734, 735, 736, 737, 738, 739, 830, 831, 832, 834, 835, 836, 837, 838, 839, 930, 931, 932, 934, 935, 936, 937, 938, 939].
so the condition i % 10 == 3 doesn't target all the numbers containing 3 in them.
