Python One Liners

This document provides examples of Python one-liners to perform common tasks like assigning variables, list comprehensions, conditional logic, mapping, merging lists into dictionaries, modifying dictionaries, and lambda functions. The one-liners demonstrate concise ways to work with collections, variables, and functions in a single line of Python code.
