In real scenarios there would be more logic in the for block that would 
meet a condition and break out of the loop. If the condition is never 
met, the else block runs. To steal from w3schools:


fruits = ["apple", "peach", "cherry"]
for x in fruits:
   print(x)
   if x == "banana":
     break
else:
   print("Yes we got no bananas")
