In this lab, you'll practice using nested loops to iterate over nested data structures and create new collections. To do this, you'll be using data from a soccer match to practice our nested loops.
You will be able to:
- Use a nested loop when it is appropriate
Use nested loops and the below object, soccer_match, to complete the following prompts and get the desired return values.
Each object's structure is identical, but make sure to have a good idea of what that structure looks like before getting started.

# code goes hereIterate over the soccer_match list and find the player with the highest shirt_number.
Store this player's information in the player_with_highest_num variable.
player_with_highest_num = None
# code goes hereNotice that the players oddly have their last name's in all caps. Create a list of all the names of the players in this match. Be sure to make sure their first and last names are properly capitalized (first letter upper case, proceeding letters lower case), as opposed to how they are currently formatted.
player_names = []
# code goes hereIn this lab, you practiced using nested loops to iterate through a nested data structure using data from a soccer match. Nested data structures can be quite complicated and it can become difficult to access more nested data. With nested loops, you are able to dynamically access this nested data and work with it as you would with a flatter data structure. It is important to think about the structure of the data before and while you're working so you know exactly what data you are working with at each level.
