#21739: mention subtle difference between loops and listcomps in tutorial.
We don't want to go into a full explanation of scopes at this point in the tutorial, so we just mention that the loop creates or overwrites a persistent variable while the listcomp doesn't. Not mentioning this would lead someone to incorrectly assume loops and listcomps were *completely* equivalent, which would confuse them later. Original patch by Rose Ames, tweaked to remove the word 'scope'.
