Say I have and iterable called some_stuff which is thousands of items in

for x in some_stuff
etc...
However, what if I want only to iterate through only the first ten items of
some_stuff, for testing purposes. Is there a concise way of specifying that
in the for statement line?

You could use islice()
import itertools
for x in itertools.islice(some_stuff, 0, 10)
print x
