If you do need to iterate over a sequence of numbers, the built-in python function range() comes in handy. It generates arithmetic progressions:

\n
>>> for i in range(5):\n...     print(i)\n...\n0\n1\n2\n3\n4
\n
range(5, 10)\n   5, 6, 7, 8, 9\n\nrange(0, 10, 3)\n   0, 3, 6, 9\n\nrange(-10, -100, -30)\n  -10, -40, -70
\n
>>> a = ['100', '200', '30000', '500000', '1000000']\n>>> for i in range(len(a)):\n...     print(i, a[i])\n...\n0 100\n1 200\n2 30000\n3 500000\n4 1000000
\n
>>> sum(range(4))  # 0 + 1 + 2 + 3\n6
\n
>>> list(range(4))\n[0, 1, 2, 3]
\n
