List with duplicated values and suffix

by

You could make it a generator:

def mygen(lst):
    for item in lst:
        yield item
        yield item + '_ind'

>>> a = ['a','b','c']
>>> list(mygen(a))
['a', 'a_ind', 'b', 'b_ind', 'c', 'c_ind']

You could also do it with itertools.product, itertools.starmap or itertools.chain or nested comprehensions but in most cases I would prefer a simple to understand, custom generator-function.

With python3.3, you can also use yield from—generator delegation—to make this elegant solution just a bit more concise:

def mygen(lst):
    for item in lst:
        yield from (item, item + '_ind')
