For loop in Python

[Yoo Song Won]

I'm a bit confused on what the fourth line and the "i" part of the "for i in cmds:" section of this code does. 

 

Does it mean "every element in the list cmds" of which then is printed?

 

Thanks in advance.

It means for every item in cmds it will perform that print statement 

 

So for example, heres another for loop:

x = [a,b,c,d]

for i in x:
	print(i)
    
    
#output#

a
b
c
d

Realized I made a small goof in the print statement, should be:

print(i)

#not

print(x[i])
