how do you make a For loop when you don't need index in python?

Question

If I need a for loop in Python:

for i in range(1,42):
    print "spam"

but don't use the i for anything, pylint complains about the unused variable. How should I handle this? I know you can do this:

for dummy_index in range(1,42):
    print "spam"

but doing this seems quite strange to me. Is there a better way?

I'm quite new to Python, so forgive me if I'm missing something obvious.

Answer 1

for _ in range(1,42):
    print "spam"
