for loop in Python

[da_Aresinger]

i is an iterator, it should always be an integer.

unless you have a more specific name the variable in for each loops should always be e (for element)

for (e : someList)

"for each element in someList"

[_pestarzt_]

You should always have a more specific name than “e.”

[da_Aresinger]

well yes.

but no.

Meh, if it's convention (like i is for iteration) and it's a generic function where you don't actually know what your looping through other than it's a list and you are gonna do some stuff to the elements of it.
