Scala - can 'for-yield' clause yields nothing for some condition?

def IWantToDoSomethingSimilar(N: Int) = 
  for {
    n <- 0 until N
    if n % 2 != 0 || { println("skip even number " + n); false }
  } yield n

Using filter instead of a for expression would be slightly simpler though.

I you want to keep the sequentiality of your traitement (processing odds and evens in order, not separately), you can use something like that (edited) :

def IWantToDoSomethingSimilar(N: Int) =
  (for (n <- (0 until N)) yield {
    if (n % 2 == 1) {
        Option(n) 
    } else {
        println("skip even number " + n)
        None
    }
  // Flatten transforms the Seq[Option[Int]] into Seq[Int]
  }).flatten

EDIT, following the same concept, a shorter solution :

def IWantToDoSomethingSimilar(N: Int) = 
    (0 until N) map {
        case n if n % 2 == 0 => println("skip even number "+ n)
        case n => n
    } collect {case i:Int => i}

If you will to dig into a functional approach, something like the following is a good point to start.

First some common definitions:

    // use scalaz 7
    import scalaz._, Scalaz._

    // transforms a function returning either E or B into a 
    // function returning an optional B and optionally writing a log of type E
    def logged[A, E, B, F[_]](f: A => E \/ B)(
      implicit FM: Monoid[F[E]], FP: Pointed[F]): (A => Writer[F[E], Option[B]]) = 
      (a: A) => f(a).fold(
        e => Writer(FP.point(e), None), 
        b => Writer(FM.zero, Some(b)))

    // helper for fixing the log storage format to List
    def listLogged[A, E, B](f: A => E \/ B) = logged[A, E, B, List](f)

    // shorthand for a String logger with List storage
    type W[+A] = Writer[List[String], A]

Now all you have to do is write your filtering function:

    def keepOdd(n: Int): String \/ Int = 
      if (n % 2 == 1) \/.right(n) else \/.left(n + " was even")

You can try it instantly:

    scala> List(5, 6) map(keepOdd)
    res0: List[scalaz.\/[String,Int]] = List(\/-(5), -\/(6 was even))

Then you can use the traverse function to apply your function to a list of inputs, and collect both the logs written and the results:

    scala> val x = List(5, 6).traverse[W, Option[Int]](listLogged(keepOdd))
    x: W[List[Option[Int]]] = scalaz.WriterTFunctions$$anon$26@503d0400

    // unwrap the results
    scala> x.run
    res11: (List[String], List[Option[Int]]) = (List(6 was even),List(Some(5), None))

    // we may even drop the None-s from the output
    scala> val (logs, results) = x.map(_.flatten).run
    logs: List[String] = List(6 was even)
    results: List[Int] = List(5)

I don't think this can be done easily with a for comprehension. But you could use partition.

def getOffs(N:Int) = {
  val (evens, odds) =  0 until N partition { x => x % 2 == 0 } 
  evens foreach { x => println("skipping " + x) }
  odds
}

EDIT: To avoid printing the log messages after the partitioning is done, you can change the first line of the method like this:

val (evens, odds) = (0 until N).view.partition { x => x % 2 == 0 }
