Python For Loops

1. Introduction to For Loops

• A for loop is used to iterate over a sequence (like a list, tuple, string,
dictionary, or range).
• Executes a block of code once for each item in the sequence.

2. Looping Through a String

• Strings are iterable character-by-character.

3. Looping Through a Range

• Use range(start, stop, step) to generate a sequence of numbers.


• When no start is provided, it defaults to 0. When no step is provided, it
defaults to 1.

• A negative step allows counting down, but the start must be greater than
stop.

• If no valid numbers exist between start and stop with the given step, the
range will be empty.

4. Looping Through a Dictionary

• Loop through keys, values, or key-value pairs.

5. Nested For Loops

• A loop inside another loop.

6. Using break in For Loop

• break exits the loop prematurely.

7. Using continue in For Loop

• continue skips the current iteration.

8. Using else with For Loop

• else block runs when the loop finishes normally (no break).
