Wrote my first Python loop at 2am and it printed "banana" 947 times onto my screen

Last Tuesday I was messing around with a for loop in IDLE trying to print the numbers 1 to 10 and I messed up the indentation and the range. Next thing I know my screen is just bananas, like 947 lines of it scrolling, and I couldn't figure out how to stop it so I just closed the laptop. Sat there for a second wondering if I had broke something permanent. Anyway how do you all keep track of indentation when you're tired, because clearly my brain checks out around midnight.
