Hi there,
I'm a complete beginner to Python and, aside from HTML and CSS, to coding in
general. I've spent a few hours on it and think I understand most of the syntax.
However, I'm wondering a bit about For Loops. I know that the basic syntax for
them is to define a list, and then to use something like:
for x in y
However, what does "for" and "in" mean in this context? Can anyone help me to
understand this? I know it's a really basic question, but hopefully it will see me on my way to
coding properly :)
Thanks a lot.
That means (in a free translation)
"For each one of 'x' in 'y', do this"
'y' is a list, for example, then it means: "For each one of the elements
of the list 'y' (the element on the current iteration is named 'x'), do
this"
Good Luck!
