      I jump between languages so much I can never remember the structure.

      for item in items? Or item of items or items as item?

      Best to just have the IDE auto complete it.

        Same here. I’m blue collar so I only do it at work if someone fucks up and gives me access to an interpreter. Or I suck it up and use powershell or excel then drink vodka and cut myself when I get home.
