Python List Comprehensions -For all the numbers 1-1000, use a list comprehension to find the highest single digit any of the numbers is divisible by

Question

This is my approach so far:

results = [for number in range(1,1001) max([divisor for divisor in range(1,10) if number % divisor == 0])]

Except I can't figure out why this doesn't work. All answers would be lovely, thanks!

The order in which you use list comperhension is incorrect. Use

results = [max([divisor for divisor in range(1,10) if number % divisor == 0]) for number in range(1,1001) ]

The syntax is

[ expression for item in list if conditional ]
