'_' can be considered as a variable name.

Like @Arsenic said if you use _ in beginning it will become varaible.Maybe your code was like this: https://code.sololearn.com/ca16A11a24a1

_ as variable name (instead of i or j or whatever) is sometimes used in loops when you do not need access _. edit: Maybe it was some list comprehension? x = [_ for _ in range(5)]
