Compacting a simple function

As I struggle with anonymous functions, how would I be able to make the below code info a single line?

list1 = []
for i in range(some_number):
    list1.append(i * 100 + 50)

Use list comprehension:

list1 = [i*100 + 50 for i in range(some_number)]

This runs as:

>>> list1 = [i*100 + 50 for i in range(10)]
>>> list1
[50, 150, 250, 350, 450, 550, 650, 750, 850, 950]
>>>

Which is the same as:

>>> list1 = []
>>> for i in range(10):
...     list1.append(i*100 + 50)
... 
>>> list1
[50, 150, 250, 350, 450, 550, 650, 750, 850, 950]
>>>
