How do I multiply each element in a list by a number?

Question

I have a list:

my_list = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

How can I multiply each element in my_list by 5? The output should be:

Answer 1

from functools import partial as p
from operator import mul
map(p(mul,5),my_list)

is one way you could do it ... your teacher probably knows a much less complicated way that was probably covered in class
