� # this is an example of for statement
� # the % symbol calculates the remainder
� # of division.
� # the range(m,n) function
� # gives a list from m to n-1.
�
� a = range(1,51)
� for x in a:
� if x % 2 == 0:
� print x, 'even'
�
� # note that in this example, for goes over a list.
� # each time making x the value of the element.
�
� ------------------------------------
� # this is similar code in perl
�
� @a=(1..50);
� for $x (@a) {
� if ( $x%2 ==0){
� print $x, " even\n";
