python - putting list items in a queue

Question

I have following code:

self.queryQ = Queue.Queue()
queries = self.getQueries()  # returns list

for query in queries:
  self.queryQ.put(query)

Is there a better way for following code? Please provide pointers.

Answer 1

Well, you could use map (docs):

map(self.queryQ.put, self.getQueries())

Answer 2

Use list comprehension, it's faster.

list = [self.queryQ.put(query) for query in queries]
