Just replace:
for y in list2:
with:
if True:
But, in a real debugging situation, y would probably be used in the inner loop,
so you could instead, precede the y loop with:
list2 = [One_object_that_list2_could_contain]
so that that the loop executes once. Once that works, you might then
selectively add items to your temporary list2.
Note that neither the `if` nor the `for` statement actually creates a new scope.
