How to Make a For Loop in Python

This video explains the basics of for loops in Python including looping over lists, numerical ranges, the continue keyword and the break keyword.

# Loop over items in a list

characters = ["Goku", "Vegeta", "Gohan", "Piccolo"]

for character in characters:
# Code to run for each iteration of the loop
print(character)

# Loop over a range of numbers

for num in range(0, 11):
print(num)

# Skip loop iterations with "continue"

for num in range(0, 11):
if num % 2 == 0:
continue
print(num)

# Escape a loop with "break"

for num in range(0, 11):
if num > 5:
break
print(num)

So num is defined in the loop and the range is given to the loop.
