potential bug in python 3

Hi we just noticed there is a potential bug in for loop variable assignment in for loop. variable must unset after the block end at least in other programming language they do but in python 3 last assignment still exist sorry for my bad English but I can tell you with an example for i in range(3): print(i) out put is 0 1 2 but if you call i again print(i) output 2 I don't know it is by purpose for some reason but I haven't seen it in any source so most of the programmers don't handle this situation . this situation can cause over ram usage and it might effect program's efficacy and optimization in large scale programs such as games or data processing if programmers don't handle this situation . Thanks Ali ARSLAN

Hey! TLDR You guys are doing a good job so I wanted your advice :) As part of my job I write programming language (something small for inner use), and I wanted to ask what tool you guys use to document your api, for example: https://docs.python.org/3/library/argparse.html I really like that it is version based, there is a search engine, and the general format. Thanks!, Elad

To whom it may concern, My name is Yi-Ming Chang, I am writing this email to double check whether that is a bug in Python. [cid:image001.png@01D82E58.D5F1E830] I have searched online, they said this is binary float, but I am not is this an error in Python? Or there is a way to avoid it? Cheers, Yi-Ming
