For loops are like a handy tool in programming that help us do things over and over again without writing the same code multiple times. They’re like a friendly robot that follows your instructions step by step. You tell it how many times to do something, and it does it, no questions asked. This saves you time and effort.
They are especially important when dealing with lists or arrays as you’ll see in our example. In my experience, this is the most useful part of For loops. In every For loop, there is an iterator variable that gives you access to a particular index in an array. This is useful for data analysis and algorithm implementation.
They’re a fundamental skill for anyone learning to program!
