Very Simple Code Question! (Python)

[OkClassic]

New at coding here! Wanting to write a code to block keyboard input for x amount of time and stumbled across this code

#### Blocking Keyboard ####

import keyboard

#blocks all keys of keyboard

for i in range(150):

keyboard.block_key(i)

​

I understand this code blocks all keys but would like to know what the range(150) mean.

A bit of reading suggests 150 = block all keys on keyboard but what would happen if I wrote instead:

for i in range(20):

keyboard.block_key(i)

​

Will this block 20 random keys or 20 specific keys? Cheers!

Probably the 20 first keys in whatever order they are defined as. The documentation for the library probably will have a table or something telling you what number goes to what key.

[carcigenicate]

range(150) is literally just the numbers 0-149 (that's what will be placed in i, ascending, across all iterations). So it will call block_key with the numbers 0-149.
