Let's say you have the following list.
#!/usr/bin/python
fruits = ["apple", "banana", "orange", "grapes"]
for fruit in fruits:
print(fruit)
This will print each fruit.
apple
banana
orange
grapes
-1: can be used to return the last item in the list.
#!/usr/bin/python
fruits = ["apple", "banana", "orange", "grapes"]
for fruit in fruits:
print(fruit[-1:])
Which should return "grapes" in this example.
grapes
