And there is the ever popular recursive version you call with no while loop
in sight. And, oddly, no variable declared in your main body:
# CODE START ---
import random
def roll2():
return random.randint(1,6), random.randint(1,6)
def roll_equal(counter):
first, second = roll2()

The data is not being shown properly. With some exceptions, it looks as if
the data is getting sorted independently from the dates.
OK, here is the code:

Thanks! That's an interesting stat. I might have to look more into how

My guess is that for loops are at least twice as common as while loops.
I was trying to take a look at the Python's standard libraries --- those
included in a standard installation

If you're doing this analysis, I'd be pretty interested in how many of
those while loops where 'while True:'
I'd wager 75%. But may be completely off

Python currently uses name mangling for double-underscore attributes. Name
mangling is not an ideal method to avoid name conflicting. There are
various normal programming patterns that can simply cause name conflicting
in double-underscore members. A typical example is when a class is
re-decorated
I'd like get a statistic of how often each loop is used in practice.

included in a standard installation of Python 3.9.6, say --- to see
which loops are more often used among while and for loops. Of course,
