Sourcehut has No JavaScript as one of it's selling points, so i was wondering why it would be better that way?

So I'm trying to make a list of numbers that are multiples of 3, this is my code: ``` multiples_of_3 = [] for value in range(3, 31): number = value % 3 == 0 multiples_of_3.append(number) print(multiples_of_3) ``` But it transforms the results into booleans, which throws me a list with false and trues instead of numbers, what I'm doing wrong? I know comprehension lists exist and that this could be done more efficiently but well, I'm trying to learn and writing it as a comprehension list doesn't make it easier.
