Looping over characters in string gives indexes, not values

[nemoyatpeace]

a = 'ashdifaweflaskdjfpaoisd'
for c in a:
print(c)

This loop doesn't work properly, seems to actually work like:
for c in range(len(a)):

It iterates over integers instead of the letters.

Right now says Dont do this yet.
