Why does python use 'else' after for and while loops?

Question

I understand how this construct works:

for i in range(10):
    print(i)

    if i == 9:
        print(\"Too big - I\'m         


        

Answer 1

Python uses an else after for and while loops so that if nothing applies to the loop, something else happens. For example:

test = 3
while test == 4:
     print("Hello")
else:
     print("Hi")

The output would be 'Hi' over and over again (if I'm correct).
