Doubt on for Loop

I have written following Code
integer count 0;
condition 1:
for(Account a :[Select name from account limit 10]){
count++;
System.debug('Count '+count);
}

condition 2:
for(list<Account> a :[Select name from account limit 10]){
count++;
System.debug('Count '+count);
}

On condition 1 i get output as 10 and for condition 2 i get output 1. Why?
Any help will be appricated
Thanks

Yes that is correct, when you use list of sObjects in Soql For loops then you get 200 records in one loop. And in your second condition you have a limit of 10 records hence the code inside the loop is running only once.

In condition one you are using one sObject record to store data returned by query and hence loop is running for each record returned.
