Here's a thought:

To help you better see what is going on in a nested looping structure like the
one above (where one loop is inside another), try this piece of code, and see
what it does:

>>> for firstNum in range(2,5):
... 	for secondNum in range(11,16):
... 		print firstNum, ' + ', secondNum, ' = ', firstNum + secondNum
... 	print "inside loop ended"
...
