Loops in List

[Skaperen]

i don't use range(len(sequence)) to iterate that sequence.  i think i recall one use of range(len(sequence)) and it was to make an iterator to recreate a similar sequence in a function (it was py2 and i used xrange).  that code would be very different if i re-did it today.  all my code would evolve if i re-did everything every day.  but i don't have enough time for that.  i will re-do a lot of my code, eventually, as i have resolved the last issue preventing me from doing everything in py3 (finally got botocore working correctly in py3 ... a lot of my code uses boto or botocore).

i also do a lot of deeper system stuff and embedded stuff.  but i don't need C for that (or at least not for most of it ... i do for my set-top-box boot loaders) anymore.

The unwritten rule is simple,never use range(len(sequence)).
If need index or manipulate index always enumerate()
Eg:

# Find index of Lemon in list
lst = ['Apple', 'Lemon', 'Orange']
for index, item in enumerate(lst):
    if item == 'Lemon':
        print(f'Lemon is at index: {index}')

Output:
Lemon is at index: 1

why not index=lst.index('Lemon') instead of a loop?
