I need more footnotes. :) Does every shell command not have indentation?
How can you tell if the shell command is supposed to be in the loop or after
the loop?
for index in range(10):
# do something
echo %(index)d
Is the above equivalent to Python pseudo-code solution A or B?
Solution A,
for index in range(10):
#do something
Popen('echo', file_path)
Solution B,
for index in range(10):
#do something
Popen('echo', file_path)
How do I make achieve the other solution?
