I have an error in django template for loop

Question

I have an error in django template for loop.
My code:

<div class="form-group col-md-4 form-field">
<label>Year</label>
<select name="year" id="year" name="year">
    {% for y in range(1980, (datetime.datetime.now().year + 1)) %}
          <option value="{{ y }}">{{ y }}</option>
    {% endfor %}
</select>
</div>
    

My error:

'for' statements should use the format 'for x in y': for x in y range(1980, (datetime.datetime.now().year + 1))

Answer 1

I solve my issue using following code:
 import datetime

 today = datetime.date.today()
        year = today.year
        year_dropdown = []
        for y in range(year,1899,-1):
            year_dropdown.append(y)

Pass key in render

return render(request, "add-ad.html",
                      {'year_dropdown': year_dropdown })

My html form django template code:
  <div class="form-group col-md-4 form-field">
                                    <label>Year</label>
                                    <select name="year" id="year" name="year" class="form-control basic-select">
                                        <option value="">Choose...</option>
                                        {% for y in year_dropdown %}
                                      
                                        <option value="{{ y }}">{{ y }}</option>
                                        {% endfor %}
                                    </select>
                                </div>
