Python for loopThe for loop in Python is used to iterate the statements or a part of the program several times. It is frequently used to traverse the data structures like list, tuple, or dictionary. The syntax of for loop in python is given below. for iterating_var in sequence: statement(s) The for loop flowchartFor loop Using SequenceExample-1: Iterating string using for loop str = "Python" for i in str: print(i) Output: P y t h o n Example- 2: Program to print the table of the given number . list = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10] n = 5 for i in list: c = n*i print(c) Output: 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 50s Example-4: Program to print the sum of the given list. list = [10,30,23,43,65,12] sum = 0 for i in list: sum = sum+i print("The sum is:",sum) Output: The sum is: 183 For loop Using range() functionThe range() function The range() function is used to generate the sequence of the numbers. If we pass the range(10), it will generate the numbers from 0 to 9. The syntax of the range() function is given below. Syntax: range(start,stop,step size)
Consider the following examples: Example-1: Program to print numbers in sequence. for i in range(10): print(i,end = ' ') Output: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 Example - 2: Program to print table of given number. n = int(input("Enter the number ")) for i in range(1,11): c = n*i print(n,"*",i,"=",c) Output: Enter the number 10 10 * 1 = 10 10 * 2 = 20 10 * 3 = 30 10 * 4 = 40 10 * 5 = 50 10 * 6 = 60 10 * 7 = 70 10 * 8 = 80 10 * 9 = 90 10 * 10 = 100 Example-3: Program to print even number using step size in range(). n = int(input("Enter the number ")) for i in range(2,n,2): print(i) Output: Enter the number 20 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 18 We can also use the range() function with sequence of numbers. The len() function is combined with range() function which iterate through a sequence using indexing. Consider the following example. list = ['Peter','Joseph','Ricky','Devansh'] for i in range(len(list)): print("Hello",list[i]) Output: Hello Peter Hello Joseph Hello Ricky Hello Devansh Nested for loop in pythonPython allows us to nest any number of for loops inside a for loop. The inner loop is executed n number of times for every iteration of the outer loop. The syntax is given below. Syntax for iterating_var1 in sequence: #outer loop for iterating_var2 in sequence: #inner loop #block of statements #Other statements Example- 1: Nested for loop# User input for number of rows rows = int(input("Enter the rows:")) # Outer loop will print number of rows for i in range(0,rows+1): # Inner loop will print number of Astrisk for j in range(i): print("*",end = '') print() Output: Enter the rows:5 * ** *** **** ***** Example-2: Program to number pyramid.rows = int(input("Enter the rows")) for i in range(0,rows+1): for j in range(i): print(i,end = '') print() Output: 1 22 333 4444 55555 Using else statement with for loopUnlike other languages like C, C++, or Java, Python allows us to use the else statement with the for loop which can be executed only when all the iterations are exhausted. Here, we must notice that if the loop contains any of the break statement then the else statement will not be executed. Example 1for i in range(0,5): print(i) else: print("for loop completely exhausted, since there is no break.") Output: 0 1 2 3 4 for loop completely exhausted, since there is no break. The for loop completely exhausted, since there is no break. Example 2for i in range(0,5): print(i) break; else:print("for loop is exhausted"); print("The loop is broken due to break statement...came out of the loop") In the above example, the loop is broken due to the break statement; therefore, the else statement will not be executed. The statement present immediate next to else block will be executed. Output: 0 The loop is broken due to the break statement...came out of the loop. We will learn more about the break statement in next tutorial.
