When you iterate over a list with this statement:
for i in rule:
i contains each successive list item.
However, your code:
print rule[i]
acts as though i is the list item's *subscript*, which is incorrect.
In effect, your code is doing this:
print rule[0]
print rule[0]
print rule[0]
print rule[0]
print rule[1]
print rule[0]
print rule[0]
print rule[0]
Although in your example both rule[0] and rule[1] are zero, so I
don't know why '1' ever got printed.
Also, as far as I can tell, this code should not have worked at all:
for i in range(rule):
print rule[i]
The range() function expects an integer, not a list.
