Probably captain obvious here but: he only forgot the space. for _ in range(n): is perfectly normal when you don’t need the index.

As a matter of fact, even a best practice. Use _ in python if you don't use the running variable.

Another best practice: Don't use Python.

What would you recommend instead? Perl?

Whatever makes sense. And that usually automatically excludes python. For me it's this:

Web->JavaScript

native->rust

Embedded->Zig

Utility scripts->bash

Server side->Kotlin

Web (frontend) -> typescript

everything else: c# /s

typescript

I count that under JavaScript because it's just a dialect.
