Python Loops

The document discusses loops in Python. It describes while loops and for loops. The while loop repeatedly executes a block of code as long as a condition is true. The for loop iterates over items in a sequence, like strings, lists, tuples, and dictionaries. It also discusses break, continue, and pass statements that can be used inside loops to control execution flow.

LOOPS IN PYTHON

WHILE AND FOR LOOP


What is Loops?

Loops are statements in computer programming that


executes an statement repeatedly until the given
condition reach.

Some loops are responsible in getting the


items/elements in a list, tuples and dictionaries in
python.
The WHILE Loop

The while statement in Python is one of most general


ways to perform iteration. A while statement will
repeatedly execute a single statement or group of
statements as long as the condition is true.

The reason it is called a 'loop' is because the code


statements are looped through over and over again
until the condition is no longer met.
Syntax of WHILE Loop

Sample Program
break, continue & pass statements inside Loop

break: Breaks out of the current closest enclosing


loop.

continue: Goes to the top of the closest enclosing


loop.

pass: Does nothing at all.


Thinking about break and continue statements, the general
format of the while loop looks like this:
For Loops

A for loop acts as an iterator in Python; it goes


through items that are in a sequence or any other
iterable item.

Objects that we've learned about that we can iterate


over include strings, lists, tuples, and even built-in
iterables for dictionaries, such as keys or values.
Syntax of For Loop

list
for item in object:
statement to do stuff

Range Function

allows you to quickly generate a list of integers, this


comes in handy a lot, so take note of how to use it!

There are 3 parameters you can pass, a start, a stop,


and a step size.

range(start,stop,step_size)
