Why list must be declared under the for loop?-CodePudding

I know this is a beginner's question. But, I want to know why the list must be declared below the for-loop when passing it as an argument?

def print_list(list):

    for i in list:
        print(i)
items = ["Bag", "Cellphone", "Laptop"]

print_list(items)

CodePudding user response：

print_list is a function so you can declare a list below that function or above it doesn't matter. then you pass that list a parameter so it doesn't make sense where the list will be declared below or above the function.

works for me I don't think it matters.
