+        Let's explore how Python helps us repeat tasks efficiently with loops! 
+
+        ## Types of Loops
+        Python has two main types of loops:
+
+        ```python
+        # For loop - when you know how many times to repeat
+        for i in range(5):
+            print(i)
+
+        # While loop - when you don't know how many repetitions
+        while condition:
+            do_something()
+        ```
+
+        Let's start with a simple list to explore loops.
