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.
y is some list ["help","beginner","question"]
for x in y:
if x=="question": print "FOUND"
Clear?
Cheers.
