Data Science and Machine Learning (Theory and Projects) A to Z - Control Flow in Python: For Loop

This video tutorial introduces the concept of for loops, explaining their utility and mechanics. It covers the basics of lists, including operations like appending and accessing elements. The tutorial provides a practical demonstration of for loops in Jupyter, illustrating how to populate a list with squared numbers. It also explores advanced usage of the range function, showing how to control iteration steps. The video aims to enhance understanding of for loops and lists, preparing viewers for more complex data structure topics.

What is a list and how can it be populated in Python?

Explain the concept of indexing in lists. How does it work?

Describe the process of appending elements to a list in Python.

What is the purpose of the range function in a for loop?

What happens when the value of the iterator exceeds the specified range in a for loop?

Can you start a for loop from a number other than zero? Explain with an example.

How does a for loop iterate over a list? Provide an example.
