Can I append items to a list that I am looping through in Python? [duplicate]

Answer 1

Your code actually works, but never ends because poss is continously growing.
Try:

poss = [1,2]

for n in poss:
    poss.append(n+6)
    if n > 10:
        print poss
        break

produces:

[1, 2, 7, 8, 13, 14, 19]
