I know it's popular and very handy, but I'm curious if there are purists
out there who think that using something like:

for x in range(10):
    #do something 10 times

is unPythonic. The reason I ask is because the structure of the for loop
seems to be for iterating through a sequence. It seems somewhat
artificial to use the for loop to do something a certain number of
times, like above.

Anyone out there refuse to use it this way, or is it just impossible to
avoid?
