Running Loops with Python Selenium

Question

I am trying to run driver.execute_script inside a loop to fetch some values during automation, however it appears that this method is not working. Just needed some help from bright minds how to get past this scenario. I am putting one sample code for this.

from selenium import webdriver
cURL = "http://google.com"
driver = webdriver.Chrome()
driver.get(cURL)
for i in range(0, 3):
    print(i) ## To check if the code ran till here
    for x in range(0, 3):
        print(x) ## To check if the code ran till here
        script1 = "return document.URL"
        print(script1) ## To check if the code ran till here
        driver.execute_script(script1)

The output is as follows it runs the entire script barring driver.execute_script

0
0
return document.URL
1
return document.URL
2
return document.URL
1
0
return document.URL
1
return document.URL
2
return document.URL
2
0
return document.URL
1
return document.URL
2
return document.URL

However if I only run the script in IPython Console

In [11]:driver.execute_script(script1)

Output

Out[11]: 'https://www.google.com/?gws_rd=ssl'
