Python utilizes a for loop to iterate over a list of elements. Unlike C or Java, which use the for loop to change a value in steps and access something such as an array using that value.

**for/else statements** **for/else statements**
Pyhton permits you to use else with for loops, the else case is executed when none of the conditions with in the loop body was satisfied. To use the else we have to make use of `break` statement so that we can break out of the loop on a satsfied condition.If we do not break out then the else part will be executed.
