lst1=["Phil", "Oz", "Seuss", "Dre"]
lst2=["Dr."]

    for y in lst2:

Write a for loop which appends the square of each number to the new list.

lst1=[3, 7, 6, 8, 9, 11, 15, 25]
lst2=[9, 49, 36, 64, 81, 121, 225, 625]
lst1.append(lst2)
print(lst1)

[3, 7, 6, 8, 9, 11, 15, 25, [9, 49, 36, 64, 81, 121, 225, 625]]

Write a for loop using an if statement, that appends each number to the new list if it's positive.

lst1=[111, 32, -9, -45, -17, 9, 85, -10]
lst2=[111, 32, 9, 45, 17, 9, 85, 10]
for x in lst2:
    print(x)
    

111
32
9
45
17
9
85

lst1=[3.14, 66, "Teddy Bear", True, [], {}]
lst2=[3.14, 66, "Teddy Bear", True, [], {}]
for x in lst1:
    print(x)
for y in lst2:
    print(y)

3.14
