Instead of writing a four-line `for` loop just to filter a list or transform some data, try using a list comprehension. It is more concise and often performs better. For example, `[x.upper() for x in words if len(x) > 3]` replaces a lot of boilerplate code while keeping the logic right there in front of you.

Just be careful not to overdo it! If your comprehension gets so long or complex that it needs a scrollbar, it is probably better off as a standard loop. Readability should always be your priority over clever one-liners.
