Yes.

Only if that function call yields the sequence of objects you want to
iterate over.  If you want to iterate a certain number of times, then
your loop will look like

    for i in range( 10 ) :
        print i

The key to determining what to put between 'in' and ':' is to
determine what sequence of objects you want to iterate over.
