-####Conditionals and For Loops
+Conditionals and For Loops
+==========================
 
-Get ready for FizzBuzz!
+Get ready for FizzBuzz, again!
 
-This is a classic programming test - that yes, you will actually see at job interviews.
+#### For Loop
 
-It basically just checks if you can write a for loop and if you know what [modulo](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modulo_operation) is.
+For loop syntax in Python is slightly different.  
+The 'for in' pattern is still available in Python:  
+```
+>>> for thing in list:
+... 	print(thing)
+```
+Python also has what's known as a range:
+```
+>>> lst = ['a', 'b', 'c']
+>>> for i in range(len(lst)):
+... 	print(i)
+0
+1
+2
+```
+If we wanted to print the element in the list, rather than the index, we could do it like this:  
+```
+>>> lst = ['a', 'b', 'c']
+>>> for i in range(len(lst)):
+... 	print(lst[i])
+a
+b
+c
+```
+With range, you have the option to choose the start and stop points, as well as increment.  
+```
+>>> for i in range(2, 10, 2):
+... 	print(i)
+2
+4
+6
+8
+```
+As you can see, the end point is not included as part of the range.
 
-###For Loop
+Fire up your Python interpreter and try it out.
 
-This is the most basic loop we write in Javascript, and most languages for that matter. The ubiquitous For Loop.
+#### Conditionals - Switch
 
-		for(var i = 0; i<=100; i++){ console.log(x) }
+Switch statements are basically the same in Python. You can write if statements in two ways:
+```
+if(some condition):
+	do something
+```
+or
+```
+if some condition:
+	do something
+```
+for else clauses, it's also pretty similar.  
+Here is an example:  
+```
+if condition:
+	do something
+elif another condition:
+	do something else
+else:
+	catch all of the other possibilities
+```
 
-In the first argument, we declare an incrementing variable, i, and where it will start. We could have called it anything.
+#### FizzBuzz
 
-In the second argument, we state the conditions under which the following code should be executing. In this case, it is while i is less than or equal to 100.
+Time for FizzBuzz in Python.
 
-In the third argument, we say that every time the code is run, i should increment by 1. i++ is shorthand, also known as [syntactic sugar](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syntactic_sugar) for i += 1, or  i = i + 1. They all do the same thing. 
+Write code that does the following:  
-
+* if i is divisible by 3, print "Fizz"
-To get a slightly different view of it, we could do it this way.
+* if i is divisible by 5, print "Buzz"
-
+* if i is divisible by 3 & 5, print "FizzBuzz"
-		for(var x = 500; x > 150; x-=5){ console.log(x) }
+* if i is not divisble by 3 or 5, print i
-
-Try it in your browser or node console and watch it work. What is the last number it prints? Why?
-
-###Conditionals - If / Else
-
-The most simple conditional statement is the if statement. This is also ubiquitous across many programming languages.
-
-Basically it is written like this:
-
-if(some condition){
-	do this
-}
-
-You can make it more powerful by specifying an else. This is a catch all for things to do if the first condition isnt met. For example:
-
-if(cute store clerk has brown hair){
-	give phone number
-} else {
-	leave store
-}
-
-Finally, we can specify multiple outcomes using an else if. 
-
-if(cute clerk has brown hair){
-	give phone number
-} elseif(cute clerk has blond hair) {
-	get phone number
-} else {
-	buy playstation
-}
-
-Instead of this plain english example, also known as [Pseudocode](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudocode)
-
-Get the idea?
-
-###Fizzbuzz
-
-Ok, now onto FizzBuzz.
-
-Open the main.js file and find the loop inside the document ready.
-
-Write code that does the following:
-
-if i is divisable by 3, append a line that reads "Fizz" 
-
-if i is divisable by 5, append a line that reads "Buzz"
-
-if i is divisable by 3 & 5, append a line that reads "FizzBuzz"
-
-All this should be done as usual, to the printout div.
