Why does python use 'else' after for and while loops?

Question

I understand how this construct works:

for i in range(10):
    print(i)

    if i == 9:
        print(\"Too big - I\'m         


        

Answer 1

To make it simple, you can think of it like that;

• If it encounters the break command in the for loop, the else part will not be called.
• If it does not encounter the break command in the for loop, the else part will be called.

In other words, if for loop iteration is not "broken" with break, the else part will be called.
