In C and C++ and Java, the 'for' statement is a shortcut to make very

Is there a way to do this in python that's more concise than 'while'?

C:
for(i=0; i<length; i++)

python:
while i < length:
i += 1

for i in range(length):
print i

* I will never be attracted to females.
* I will never enjoy the company of others.
Exactly how these realities bode for my enemy, is not of my concern.
