I don't Understand this Indentation in Python

Question

Good Morning,

I did not understand the python indentation in the following code:

for pessoa in lista_nomes:
    if pessoa['nome'] == nome:
        return pessoa
else:
    return {'nome': 'Não selecionado', 'idade': 0}

Why is else closing the indentation at the 'for' instead of the the 'if' level?

Answer 1

It's because there is for/else in python

The else clause executes after the loop completes normally.
