for-if without list comprehension in one line

Question

can this be written in one line without List Comprehensions?

for x in vec: 
    if x > 3:
         ...
         ...

Answer 1

See @KennyTM... no reason to compress that much.

What being said, for x in (i in vec if i > 3) does the job, as well as itertools.ifilter (or just the builtin filter in Python 3) with a lambda x: x > 3 predicate. They work with all iterables as well, and are lazy (e.g. if you break during the loop, you didn't check a single item too much).
