PART 3 - Iterating Over Lists
print(list_of_numbers)
print(new_list_of_numbers)
</source>The above is just one example of a quick use of for loops mixed with lists. But be careful when passing lists into functions. When you give a function a list as an argument, it is the actual list reference and NOT a copy. This means a function can change the list without making a new list. While you do have to be careful , this can also be useful, a . A function can modify any given list, ''without '' have to return it.<br><br>
:#To demonstrate, run the following code:<source lang="python">
list_of_numbers = [ 1, 5, 2, 6, 8, 5, 10, 2 ]
