The Complete Python Course - For Loop

The video tutorial introduces the concept of a for loop in Python, explaining its purpose and how it is used to iterate over sequences such as lists, tuples, dictionaries, sets, or strings. The instructor demonstrates creating a new Python file and provides a practical example of using a for loop to print each word in a name. The tutorial emphasizes the role of a variable in the loop that takes the value of each item in the sequence during each iteration.

What is the primary purpose of a for loop in Python?

• To execute a statement once

• To iterate over a sequence multiple times

• To define a function

• To handle exceptions

Which of the following can be used as a sequence in a for loop?

• A module

• A list

• A class

• A function

In the given example, what does the variable 'West' represent in the for loop?

• The value of each item in the sequence

• The name of the loop

• The sequence being iterated

• The function being called

What is the output of the for loop in the example provided?

• The length of the name

• The entire name as a single string

• The first letter of the name

• Each word of the name on a new line

How does the variable in a for loop change during each iteration?

• It resets to the initial value

• It remains constant

• It decreases by one

• It takes the value of the next item in the sequence
