Unnecessary use of comprehension PYL-R1721
Performance
Major
Autofix It is unnecessary to use a comprehension just to loop over the iterable and create a list/set/dict out of it.
Python has a specialized set of tools for this task: the list/set/dict constructors, which are faster and more readable.
Bad practice
states = [
('AL', 'Alabama'),
('AK', 'Alaska'),
('AZ', 'Arizona'),
('AR', 'Arkansas'),
('CA', 'California'),
# ...
]
abbreviations_to_names = {
abbreviation: name
for abbreviation, name in states
}
Recommended
states = [
('AL', 'Alabama'),

# ...

abbreviations_to_names = dict(states)
