Q:

Ruby difference between for and .each

# They are both similar in function, however the for loop will retain a variable.
# FOR Example:
nums = [1,2,3]

for n in nums
	puts n
end
=> 1 2 3

# If you ask what is n, n outputs the last assignment from the function.
n => 3

# EACH Example:

nums.each do |i|
	puts i
end
=> 1 2 3

# If you ask what is i.
i => NameError (undefined local variable or method `i' for main:Object)
