It cannot iterate over something where the length is unknown in
advance, or infinite, or not meaningfully indexed by integers.
Here are four for-loops. How would you re-write this using indexing?
Don't forget the list comprehension!
for directory, subdirs, files in os.walk(top):
files.sort()
for f in files:
print(os.path.join(top, directory, f))
# skip .git and .hg directories, and those ending with ~
for d in ('.git', '.hg'):
try: subdirs.remove(d)
except ValueError: pass
subdirs[:] = [d for d in subdirs if not d.endswith('~')]
subdirs.sort()
