Python for loop problem

Hi all, I haven't been in the halls of TPU in a long time. I am having trouble understanding some stuff with the for loops in Python... the book I am reading 'Learning Python' by O'Reilly press has a very confusing description of the for loop. Can anyone give a more uderstandable explanation?

eg: for (k = 1; k <= 100; k++)
cout<<k<<" "; This for loop displays the natural numbers betwen 1 and 100. What I did first is to initialize the variable "k" with 1. Then I told the copiler to loop while k <= 100. Each loop "k" is incremented (k = k + 1 or k++) so that "k" will be 100 sometime. You can have more conditions and the incrementation part in the parantheses can miss. Search the web for tutorials (there are a lot of useful ones!)
