Here’s my specific example:
param1 = 'XXXXXXXXXXX' param2 = 'XXXX' param3 = 'XXXX' param4 = 'XXXX' param5 = 'XXXX' param6 = 'XXXX' #param7 below holds the (always numerical) value that needs to be incremented so that param7 = '2' in the next pass through param7 = '1' #url of fantasy league with statistics url = ('https://www.fantrax.com/fantasy/league/'+param1+'/players' +';positionOrGroup='+param2 +';miscDisplayType='+param3 +';seasonOrProjection=SEASON_9'+param4 #so on and so forth +';parameterThatNeedsIncremented'+param7) browser.get(url)
I need the numerical value of param7 in this example to increase by a count of 1 before each pass up to param7 = ’30’.
Is there any way to create a list or dict containing values ‘1’ through ’30’ and tell param7 to use use move through the dict at index + 1?

You can use a for loop with a range() function which returns a sequence of numbers, starting from first number specified, incrementing by 1 (by default), and stoping before second specified number.
param1 = 'XXXXXXXXXXX' param2 = 'XXXX' param3 = 'XXXX' param4 = 'XXXX' param5 = 'XXXX' param6 = 'XXXX' for param7 in range(1, 31): param7 = str(param7) # If it needs to be string #url of fantasy league with statistics url = ('https://www.fantrax.com/fantasy/league/'+param1+'/players' +';positionOrGroup='+param2 +';miscDisplayType='+param3 +';seasonOrProjection=SEASON_9'+param4 #so on and so forth +';parameterThatNeedsIncremented'+param7) browser.get(url)
