Transform date while loop into for loop

Question

I have following while loop in Python:

start_date: datetime.date = utcnow().date() - datetime.timedelta(
    days=30
)
end_date: datetime.date = utcnow().date()
DELTA_1D: datetime.timedelta = datetime.timedelta(days=1)
while start_date <= end_date:
    # some code
    start_date += DELTA_1D

But I want to transform it to a for loop. What's the best implementation for this?

Work out he number of days between by simply subtracting

from datetime import date, timedelta

d0 = date(2008, 8, 18)
d1 = date(2008, 9, 26)
delta = d1 - d0
for i in range(0,delta.days):
        date_to_handle = d0 + timedelta(days=i)

Do you want a for each loop?

I want to loop over each day between those 2 intervals and know which date I'm handling

Updated so that imports are included and you have the date within the for loop

You can do this with date or datetiem @sg_sg94
