python - Check variable if it is in a list -
i new python, , wondering if there succinct way of testing value see if 1 of values in list, similar sql clause. sorry if basic question.
msupdate.updateclassificationtitle in ( 'critical updates', 'feature packs', 'security updates', 'tools', 'update rollups', 'updates', )
i.e, want write:
if msupdate.updateclassificationtitle in ( 'critical updates', 'feature packs', 'security updates', 'tools', 'update rollups', 'updates' ): then_do_something()
seems succinct enough, if you're using more once should name tuple:
titles = ('critical updates', 'feature packs', 'security updates', 'tools', 'update rollups', 'updates') if msupdate.updateclassificationtitle in titles: do_something_with_update(msupdate)
tuples use parenthesis. if want list change square brackets. or use set, has faster lookups.
