Manual for Looping Statements

CONCEPTUAL QUESTIONS

1. What is meant by looping or iteration?

Answer A set of instructions are repeated in the context of programming. This repetitive
execution of a set of instructions or groups of statements is termed looping,
iteration, or looping the loop.

2. What are the benefits of using the iterations or loops in Python?

A set of instructions are repeated in the context of programming.

The benefits of using loops in Python are as follows:
1. Loops aid in escalating the code reusability.
2. Loops simplify complex problems into simple ones which are very easy to
handle.
3. Loops aid in easily crisscrossing the elements placed in arrays and linked
lists.
4. Loops aid the developers, remove the drudgery of physical writing and
implement the upfront and petite instructions repetitively.

3. Explain the notion of a counter and a conditional loop?

Answer  Count-controlled loops- A construction for repeating a loop a certain

number of times. The Count-controlled loop in Python is the For Loop.
 Condition-controlled loop -A loop will be repeated until a given condition
changes. While loops possess this behaviour.

4. What are finite and infinite loops? Explain the differences between finite and
infinite loops.

Answer The quantity of iterations is limited in finite loops. The quantity of iterations is
unlimited in infinite loops.
Finite loops : It loops for a fixed amount of times.
Infinite loops : Indefinitely, it repeats the process. In Python, an infinite loop is a
COPYRIGHT © 2023 PEARSON INDIA EDUCATION SERVICES PVT. LTD
 conditional loop that executes over and over again until a stopping condition is
met, such as the runtime running out of memory or encountering an error.
There are many varieties of infinite loops in Python, including:
while statement.
if statement.
break statement.
continue statement.
An infinite loop always repeats itself without ever

5. What are definite and indefinite loops?

Answer The finite loops can further be typified as definite loops and indefinite loops. The
number of iterations is clearly defined in a definite loop. The number of iterations
is not clearly defined in an indefinite loop.

6. Distinguish between closed and open loops.

Answer An open-loop control system is one in which the input or controlling action is not
dependent on the output.

With closed-loop control, the input or controlling action is based on the outcome.

7. How do loops work, and what are entry-controlled and exit-controlled loops?

Answer The constructs in an indefinite loop, can be further subdivided into pre-test loops
or pre-checking loops or entry-controlled Loops and post-test loops or post-
checking loops or exit controlled Loops.

8. What are built-in functions and built-in looping functions? Why do we need
built-in looping functions?

Answer It is a function is a building block / or an element in programming language. It is a

collection of statements. It can be reused more than once in a program. The
functions enhance the comprehensibility, quality of the program, and it lowers the
cost for development and maintenance of the software.

The Inbuilt Functions looping through an iterable deprived of the use of a for loop
or while loop is known as the Inbuilt Looping Functions.

COPYRIGHT © 2023 PEARSON INDIA EDUCATION SERVICES PVT. LTD

 The Inbuilt Looping Functions aid in looping through an iterable deprived of the
use of for loop or while loop. You can print the elements of the iterable deprived of
altering the actual elements of the iterable. They decrease the effort in coding as
they are easy and simple to use. By using these Inbuilt Looping Functions one can
write concise codes.

9. What are range functions? Why do we need the range functions?

Answer The built-in function range () is a function that is used to repeat over a sequence of
numbers.

It can create an iterator of arithmetic progressions.

10. Give the syntax for the range function? Name the parameters inside the range
function?

Answer Syntax:
range(stop) or range(start, stop[, step])

Parameters inside the range function start, stop, and step.

11. Outline the logic of a while loop with a flow chart

Answer The flow of execution for a while statement is as follows:

[i] While statement (loop) is activated with while keyword

[ii] Assess the test condition, to see if it yields True or False.
[iii] If the condition is true, execute the body containing the code and then go
back to step 1.
[iv] If the condition is false, skip the body containing the code following the
while statement
[v] If false, execute the succeeding statements in the rest of the program(like the
else block).
[vi] Loops until it reaches the end of the body; returns to the while statement
(containing the condition), re-examines the test condition and updates it.
Updates meaning is if it is true, repeats the execution of the body of the loop
until the process is over and until the condition fails or it becomes false.(note
- If true, and after execution of the body of the loop).If the condition is false,
you can go to the else block and execute the statements.

13. “The "Python While Loop" is a condition-based iteration structure. Explain

Answer Python While Loop is called a condition-controlled loop.This type of looping

supports repeated execution of a statement or block of statements that is controlled
by a conditional expression. The while construct will keep performing a block as
long as a particular condition is true. The While Loop is usually picked up to
perform a task indeterminately, till a specific condition is satisfied.

15. What form will the while loop and the other component take?

Answer The while construct will keep performing a block as long as a particular condition
is true. The While Loop is picked up to perform a task indeterminately, till a
specific condition is satisfied.

17. What is the logic behind a for else loop, and how does it work?

Answer [i] The for-keyword triggers a for statement (loop). Invoke the membership
expression and then require the result from the iterable (which is a
collection of elements).
[ii] The for loop's body will not be executed if the iterable is empty.
[iii] If the iterable did yield an element, allot that element to <var> .
o If <var> was not previously delineated, it becomes delineated).
[iv] Implement the bounded body of code, equal to the number of items or
elements in the collection.
[v] Return to the first line.

18. Write the syntax for nested while and for loops.
Answer
for [first iterating variable] in [do something] # Optional
[outer loop]:
while first condition:
[do something] # Optional
# Outer loop
[do something] # Optional while second condition:
for [second iterating variable] [do something] # Optional
in [nested loop]: # Nested loop
[do something]

19. Why do we need nested loops in a program?

COPYRIGHT © 2023 PEARSON INDIA EDUCATION SERVICES PVT. LTD

Answer In python, when a loop lies within or inside the body of another loop, it is called a
nested loop. The loop lying within another loop is called the inner loop and the
loop outer to the inner one is called the outer loop.

Nested loops are used to deal when there are too many iterations. It helps to reduce
the usage of memory size.

20. With the help of a flow chart, explain the working of a Break statement.

Answer

Figure 3-Flow Control depicting the working of a break

21. What are control statements?

Answer Python offers loop control statements, to alter the process of code execution of the
recursion statements. They provide the programmers with more flexibility in
designing the control logic of the loops. Python supports the control statements
like break, pass and continue.

22. What's the Break statement's purpose?

Answer The break statement is used in a sequential search(like searching for an element in
a list) using a for a loop. When an element is reached, in a sequential search, it
exits the loop deprived of passing through the residual elements. A break statement
is a deliberate stoppage to prohibit a loop from running. The break statement is
often used to dismiss the processing of codes. The break statement eradicates and
directs the flow of control in the code. The code implementation simply continues
to the next case, deprived of the break statement. Once inside a loop, and the code

COPYRIGHT © 2023 PEARSON INDIA EDUCATION SERVICES PVT. LTD

 bumps into it, it gets halted, the loop is immediately terminated and the program
control resumes at the next statement following the loop.

23. Show the functionality of a continue statement with a flowchart.

Answer

Figure 4-Flow Control depicting the working of a continue statement

24. Give an overview of how a pass statement operates using a flowchart.

Answer

Figure 5-Flow Control depicting the working of a Pass

When the specified condition in a loop (while or for) is true, followed by a pass
statement; then the value or repetition of the loop is done and proceeds onto the
subsequent line of code. It thus transfers the control to the start of the loop.

25. Is a pass statement really necessary?

COPYRIGHT © 2023 PEARSON INDIA EDUCATION SERVICES PVT. LTD

Answer The Pass statement is typically used when there is no requirement for a code, but a
statement is by itself or is still vital to write the code syntactically precise for
running. The pass statement is useful to construct a body, in places where there is
a necessity to ignore a code execution and nothing is to be performed inside the
block of code.

26. Bring out the differences between the Pass and the Continue statements
