🔒 The code works but idk how

[shrewd thicket]

The last else is kinda broken
it doesnt have an if it is called due to
if i remove it, logic changed
indent to left or right, logic changed

(obviously) but i just wanna know how this block is working, lmk if u need additional code, its just 3-4 lines larger

because there's no corresponding if

you should delete 1 indentation

[shrewd thicket]

no, its working as i want it to, but there is no corrosponding if, exactly my problem

[brave parcel]

Else should be in a same indentation as if

it's in an indentation of for loop

[shrewd thicket]

so for loops have else?

[brave parcel]

No they don't

[vivid flicker]

They do have else 🙂

[shrewd thicket]

if i indent, the logic changes giving me a differnt output than i want

[vivid flicker]

Just not commonly used

[shrewd thicket]

well, that expalins it

[brave parcel]

🙄

Still that's not what you want I guess

[vivid flicker]

!e

for _ in range(2):
    print("stuff")
else:
    print("For-Else runs when the for block is done executing")

@vivid flicker :white_check_mark: Your 3.12 eval job has completed with return code 0.

001 | stuff
002 | stuff
003 | For-Else runs when the for block is done executing

[shrewd thicket]

but how does it decide to run or not?

[vivid flicker]

Note: The else block will NOT be executed if the loop is stopped by a break statement.

[shrewd thicket]

ohh

nice

well, tysm

[vivid flicker]

if the for loop "breaks" the else doesnt run, if it doesnt break, the else runs.

But that aside, your issue probably is that you wanted it on an if statement somewhere 🙂
Let me have al ook

[shrewd thicket]

nope, its exactly what i wanted

[vivid flicker]

Ah okay 🙂 Good stuff

[shrewd thicket]
