Firstable I am not a software expert just a hobby user so please be indulgent

I use a Raspberry Pi3B+ with raspbian lite and Python 3.5.3

In my script, I need 2 nested "while" loops so I chose two variables to incriment them 'i' and j. This script don't work and I made a certain time to understand (I did not think Python could play me a trick).

I needed to reset 'j' to go through the inner loop a few times and in fact I realized that when I initialized 'j', 'i' was also initialized !?!?

Very curious isn't it ?

I replaced 'i' by 'y' and no more problem, my script works very well.

Hi @Phil Dream, you reuse i in your inner loop, in the for statement.

By the way, I suggest you look at range() to replace your while loop: https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#func-range.


For your others questions, the mailing list are more appropriate than the bug tracker.

Have a nice day!

Hi Phil,

This bug tracker is more for the core-dev and the contributors of CPython.

I suggest to you to use the right mailing list for your issues.
or use #python-fr on freenode

Mailing list: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

I close this issue because it's not related to the internals of Python.

OK, I am sorry I didn’t know
Best regards
