[Jython-users] filtering lists

[<ast...@gm...>]

Hi all,

What's the difference between the following two methods (in Jython or
in Python)? Is there a significant speed difference? Or is it just a
matter of preference?

Method 1:

[x for x in someList if x == something]

Method 2:

filter(lambda x: x == something, somelist)

Thanks in advance.
