NEWBIE: Extending a For Statement.

I keep seeing examples of statements where it seems conditionals are
appended to a for statement, but I do not understand them.

I would like to use one in the following scenario.

I have a dictionary of

mydict = { 1: 500, 2:700, 3: 800, 60: 456, 62: 543, 58: 6789}

for key in mydict:
     if key in xrange (60,69) or key == 3:
           print key,mydict[key]

I would like to have the 'if' statement as part of the 'for'
statement.

I realise it is purely cosmetic, but it would help me understand
python syntax a little better.

Thanks

Richard
