The code snippet for i in word
is part of a for
loop in Python. Here's what it does:
word
is assumed to be an iterable, commonly a string in this context.- The loop iterates over each element (or character, if
word
is a string) inword
. - On each iteration, the variable
i
takes the value of the current element (or character) of the iterable.
For example:
word = "hello"
for i in word:
print(i)
Output:
h
e
l
l
o
Each character in the string "hello"
is printed one by one because the for
loop iterates over each character of the string word
.
If word
is not a string but another iterable (e.g., a list, tuple, etc.), i
will take the value of each element in that iterable in turn.
