[Tutor] For Loop

[Martin A. Brown]

Hello Shelby,

Your question is a bit too terse.  You don't give us too much detail 
in understanding what you want to do.

But, we are the Tutor list and we are here to help!

Here are a few things which may help you get started....

  * A few other programming languages refer to an array as a basic 
    data type.  In Python, it is the 'list', which is the analogous
    basic data type (although there is a an 'array' data type).  You 
    should start by learning how to use a Python 'list', though.

  * A for loop on a list is very easy.  Here's a Python3 code 
    snippet:

        data = list(range(10))  # -- put 10 elements in a list
        for item in data:
            print(item)

  * You may find it helpful to work through some tutorial material.  
    There are many.  We can help you choose one if you tell us what 
    you are trying to do.  I will suggest the main Python tutorial 
    at the language documentation site as a starting place.  Since 
    you asked about for loops, you probably want to read about 
    control flow.

      https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/
      https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/controlflow.html

If you have more specific details on what you are trying to 
accomplish and/or learn, then send along those questions!

Good luck as you get started,

-Martin
