python - For loop store outcome in variable

Question

I'm learning to webscrape data so I can use it to practice data visualization, and I am following a tutorial but I can't get the same results. The problem is that I have a for loop, but cant seem to store the data in a variable. When I run the for loop and try to store the results in a variable i will only get one result, but when i immediately print the for loop results i get all the data.

Can someone explain what I'm doing wrong?

for age in team_riders:
  print(age.find('div', class_='age').text)

Results:

30
28
28
22
34
28
25
30

30
34
32

for age in team_riders:
  age = age.find('div', class_='age').text

print(age)

prints:

30

Answer 1

Define an empty list before your loop and append() the single results from the loop to this list:

lst = []

for age in team_riders: 
    lst.append(age.find('div', class_='age').text)
