Looping with booleans in Python

Question

Trying to automate a process in checking websites to see if they exist.

Basically, I've imported a list of websites from Excel into my program, and I'm trying to see if the exact web address exists. I am trying to create a control structure that, for all of the cells in this list, I can check if the cell (web address) exists or not, and then store that output to another list. Coming from a Java background, I am thinking I want to loop in this type of manner:

newlist = []
for data

    if webbrowser.open(data[row][1]) == true

        store true at this point in newlist

    else

        store false at this point in newlist

I am new to Python and don't quite understand the nuances used in the looping mechanisms and how booleans are used differently than in Java.

If you could offer any suggestions, I would be very appreciative. Sorry if I've mislabled/mistagged this.

Answer 1

A pythonix way could be:

result = [webbrowser.open(row[1]) == True for row in data]
