Underscore to Ignore Values in for loop | #Python Tips #yasirbhutta #pythonshorts

In Python, the underscore character "_" is often used as a throwaway variable in for loops when you need to iterate over a sequence but you do not actually need the value of the current element.

For example, consider the following code snippet that prints the numbers from 1 to 5:

for _ in range(1, 6):
print(_)

In this case, we use the underscore character as a variable name to indicate that we don't actually need the value of the current element of the range object. Instead, we simply loop through the range object 5 times and print the loop counter variable, which takes on the values 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.

This convention is widely used in Python to indicate to other programmers reading the code that the value of the variable is not important and is simply being used as a loop counter. It also avoids the need to use a variable name that is more descriptive than necessary for a simple loop like this.
