I'm running a small snippet using python -c
string statement, but don't seem to get the syntax right when I' using a for loop and defining variables. Help appreciated.
This works:
python -c "for i in (1,2,3): print(i)"
A simple definition prior to the loop errors:
python -c "a = 123; for i in (1,2,3): print(i)"
> Syntax Error
A simple definition after the loop works:
python -c "for i in (1,2,3): print(i); a = 123"
