Python List Data Type

• List is an ordered collection of similar or different types of items

separated by commas and enclosed within brackets [ ]. For
example,

• languages = [“C", "Java", "Python"]

• Here, we have created a list named languages with 3 string values

inside it.
 Access List Items

• To access items from a list, we use the index number (0, 1, 2 ...). For
example,

languages = [“C", "Java", "Python"]

print(languages[0])
print(languages[2])

• In the above example, we have used the index values to access

items from the languages list.

• languages[0] - access first item from languages i.e. C

• languages[2] - access third item from languages i.e. Python

thislist = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]

 Loop

• In computer programming, loops are used to repeat a block of

code.

• For example, if we want to show a message 100 times, then we

can use a loop. It's just a simple example; you can achieve much
more with loops.

• There are 2 types of loops in Python:

• for loop

• while loop
Flowchart of Python for Loop
 Python for Loop

• A for loop is used for iterating over a sequence (that is either a list, a
tuple, a dictionary, a set, or a string).

• With the for loop we can execute a set of statements, once for each item
in a list, tuple, set etc.

• fruits = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]

for x in fruits:
print(x)

apple
banana
cherry
 Python for Loop

for x in “Apple":
print(x)

 The range() Function

• To loop through a set of code a specified number of times, we can use

the range() function,

• The range() function returns a sequence of numbers, starting from 0 by default,

and increments by 1 (by default), and ends at a specified number.

for x in range(6):
print(x)

0
1
2
3
4
5

Note that range(6) is not the values of 0 to 6, but the values 0 to 5.

 Python for Loop

x = int(input("Enter range : "))

for i in range(x):
print(i)

Enter range : 5
0
1
2
3
4
 Python for Loop

• The range() function defaults to 0 as a starting value, however it is

possible to specify the starting value by adding a parameter: range(2, 6),
which means values from 2 to 6 (but not including 6):

for x in range(2, 6):

print(x)

2
3

 What does end =‘ ’ do in Python?

• The end parameter in the print function is used to add any string. At the end of the output of the print
statement in python.
• By default, the print function ends with a newline.
• Passing the whitespace to the end parameter (end=‘ ‘) indicates that the end character has to be
identified by whitespace and not a newline.

print("Comsats", end=' ' )

print("University")
Comsats University

print("Comsats")
print("University")
Comsats
University

• (Ctrl+Enter)

 Python Nested Loops

• Loops Inside Loops

• A nested loop is a loop inside a loop.
• The "inner loop" will be executed one time for
each iteration of the "outer loop":

Outer_loop Expression:
Inner_loop Expression:
Statement inside inner_loop

 The while Loop

• With the while loop we can execute a set of statements as long as a

condition is true.

Python while loop is used to run a block code until a certain

condition is met.
The syntax of while loop is:
while condition: # body of while loop
 While Loop

• A while loop evaluates the condition

• If the condition evaluates to True, the code inside the while loop is
executed.
• condition is evaluated again.
• This process continues until the condition is False.
• When condition evaluates to False, the loop stops.
