python中的成员运算符_python中的成员运算符(Memberwise operator in python)

How can I perform in Python memberwise operation on list (vector) such as in Matlab/Octave. I mean, giving two lists:

a = [1,2,3]

b = [4,5,6]

Are there memberwise operators such as:

c = a .* b = [1*4,2*5,3*6]

d = a ./ b = [1/4,2/5,3/6]

I know that I can implement it by myself, and I will do so if there is not such module. A not completely bulletproof way could be:

# Memberwise product:

def mwprod(a,b):

c = []

if len(a) == len(b):

for a,b in zip(a,b):

try:

c.append(a*b)

except:

c.append(NaN)

return c

As stated by user3426575 this can be condensed in a very pythonic way:

c = [ x*y for x, y in zip(a,b) ]

Anyway I am wondering for something more dense and aesthetic which overloads or implements such operators on list.
