The for loop is used to iterate over a sequence (like a list, tuple, dictionary, set, or string). It iterates over items in the order they appear in the sequence.

note

The loop variable takes on each of the values in the sequence

for loop Syntax:

for item in sequence:
    print(item)

Examples

Example:

# using a for loop to iterate over a sequence of characters

characters = “Python”

for char in characters:
    print(char)

Example:

# Using a for loop to iterate over a list
fruits = ['apple', 'banana', 'cherry']
for fruit in fruits:
    print(fruit)
