What is the use of "else" after "for" loop in Python?
python, syntax
Solution
From the documentation:
Loop statements may have an `else` clause; it is executed when the loop terminates through exhaustion of the list (with `for`) or when the condition becomes false (with `while`), but not when the loop is terminated by a `break` statement.
Follow the link for an example how this can be used.
Problem
It seems both of the below codes are printing the same, then what is the need of "else" block after "for" loop in python. Code 1: ``` for i in range(10): print i else: print "after for loop" ``` Code 2: ``` for i in range(10): print i print "after for loop" ``` Thanks in advance.
