Different outputs in IDLE and IPython console in Spyder IDE. Possible reasons

A particular function/command of mine has started behaving strangely. Remove items from a nested list based on comparing values obtained from another nested list

a = [[1,2,3,4,5],[3,4,5,6,7,8,9],[5],[1,2,3,6,7,8,9]]
b = [[1,4],[6,9]]
print ([[i for i in s if not any(l <= i <= h for l, h in b)] for s in a])

Expected Output :

[[5], [5], [5], []]

Output in IDLE and codeskulptor (https://py3.codeskulptor.org/) :

[[5], [5], [5], []]

Output in Spyder IDE (in the Ipython console) is 

[[], [], [], []]

Code was working fine till EoD yesterday. I started my laptop again today and started having this discrepancy. My python installation is via Anaconda. Python version 3.6.6 (shown in both IDLE and Spyder) Spyder version is 3.3.1

I have tried restarting the laptop a couple of times as a last resort but can't seem to find the reason for this discrepancy

(Spyder maintainer here) I can reproduce the output you're seeing in Spyder if previous to your code I run

from numpy import any

Since you claim that you're getting the same result after a kernel restart, that means you have activated the option present in

Tools > Preferences > IPython console > Graphics > Automatically load Pylab and NumPy modules

So please deactivate that option to get the expected output with the builtin any.
