beginning python help request (for loop)

[buran]

on line 4 current value of result is multiplied by current value of indx (that is right-hand side of the equal sign) and the result is assigned as new value of result
maybe if you add two print functions it will help

result = 1
for indx in range (10):  
    if (indx % 2 == 0):
        continue # I moved this on separate line just for more redability
    print('result before multiplication: {}, indx: {}'.format(result, indx))
    result = result * indx
    print('result after multiplication: {}'.format(result))

Note that you may see something like this

result *= indx

This is the same, but written a bit shortly
