Programming with Python - Open Elective

​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ March 07, 2025


Revision: variables (containers for data), input(), print(),
datatype: int, float, bool, str, None
arithmetic, relational and logical operator, operator associativity, operator
precedence (arithmetic > relational > logical)
if-else, for loop, while loop,
strings, string indexing, string slicing
function, function with arguments, function returning values

Functions, break and continue operations


When writing loops in Python (such as for and while), sometimes we need to stop
the loop early or skip certain iterations. This is where the break and continue
statements come in.

break statement: The break statement immediately exits the loop when
encountered, skipping all remaining iterations.

#Stop the loop when a vowel is found


sentence = ‘Cn nt wrt wtht using vwl’

for ch in sentence:
if ch ‘aeiou’ :
print("vowel found! Stopping the loop.")
break # Stop the loop immediately
print(ch)
continue statement: The continue statement skips the current
iteration and moves to the next one, without exiting the loop.
#Skip printing even numbers
numbers = ‘12345’
for num in numbers:
if int(num) % 2 == 0:
continue # Skip this iteration if the number
is even
print(num)

Practice Examples:
1.​Inflation impact(for loop): Inflation increases the price of a product by 5%
per year. Write a Python program that takes an initial price and calculates the
price for the next 5 years.
Input:
Enter initial price: 1000
Output:
Year 1: 1050.0
Year 2: 1102.5
Year 3: 1157.63
Year 4: 1215.51
Year 5: 1276.28

initial_price = float(input("Enter initial price: "))


for year in range(1, 6): # 5 years
initial_price *= 1.05 # Increase price by 5%
print(f"Year {year}: {initial_price:.2f}")
2.​Loan Repayment (while loop)

A person takes a loan of Rs 10,000 and repays Rs 1,500 per year.


Use a while loop to calculate how many years it will take to repay the full
loan.
Output:
Year 1: Remaining Loan = 8500
Year 2: Remaining Loan = 7000
Year 3: Remaining Loan = 5500
Year 4: Remaining Loan = 4000
Year 5: Remaining Loan = 2500
Year 6: Remaining Loan = 1000
Year 7: Loan fully repaid!

loan_amount = 10000
year = 0
repayment = 1500

while loan_amount > 0:


year += 1
loan_amount -= repayment
if loan_amount > 0:
print(f"Year {year}: Remaining Loan =
{loan_amount}")
else:
print(f"Year {year}: Loan fully repaid!")
3.​ GDP Growth Rate Analysis (for and if-else)

Given a list of GDP growth rates, identify whether each year had positive
growth or a recession (negative growth).
For the GDP growth rates [-2.3, 3.5, 1.8, -0.5, 2.0], print:
"Recession" if the rate is negative
"Growth" if the rate is positive
Output:
Year 1: Recession
Year 2: Growth
Year 3: Growth
Year 4: Recession
Year 5: Growth

gdp_growth_rates = [-2.3, 3.5, 1.8, -0.5, 2.0]

for year, rate in enumerate(gdp_growth_rates,


start=1):
if rate < 0:
print(f"Year {year}: Recession")
else:
print(f"Year {year}: Growth")
4.​Extract Country Names from Economic Reports (strings)

An economist has a list of reports with country names:​


"GDP_Report_USA_2024", "Inflation_Report_UK_2023",
"Trade_Report_India_2025".
Write a Python program that extracts and prints the country names from
these strings.
Output:
USA
UK
India

reports = ["GDP_Report_USA_2024",
"Inflation_Report_UK_2023", "Trade_Report_India_2025"]

for report in reports:


parts = report.split("_") # Split by underscore
country = parts[-2] # Extract second last element
print(country)

Exercises:
Notes:
Practice these built-in functions:
Strings: split, join, replace, strip, len, count
