Hey Shali Dan, regarding the multidimensional lists video, there are two variables used in the loop:

  • week is a list of values from the list travel_values. Each loop will be the next week’s value starting at the 0-th week.
  • workweek_number is a manually incremented value to keep track number of times the loop has executed. It is used only as a print value and not to index in the lists.

Later in the courses, you will near about the enumerate() function that automatically produces a loop counter along with an item from an iterable.

Post back if you need more help. Good luck!!!
