Python for loop

Example of Python for Loop

1. # Code to find the sum of squares of each element of the list using for loop
2.
3. # creating the list of numbers
4. numbers = [3, 5, 23, 6, 5, 1, 2, 9, 8]
5.
6. # initializing a variable that will store the sum
7. sum_ = 0
8.
9. # using for loop to iterate over the list
10. for num in numbers:
11.
12. sum_ = sum_ + num ** 2
13.
14. print("The sum of squares is: ", sum_)

Output:

The sum of squares is: 774

The range() Function

Code

1. my_list = [3, 5, 6, 8, 4]
2. for iter_var in range( len( my_list ) ):
3. my_list.append(my_list[iter_var] + 2)
4. print( my_list )

Output:

[3, 5, 6, 8, 4, 5, 7, 8, 10, 6]

Iterating by Using Index of Sequence

Another method of iterating through every item is to use an index offset within the
sequence. Here's a simple illustration:

Code

1. # Code to find the sum of squares of each element of the list using for loop
2.
1
3. # creating the list of numbers
4. numbers = [3, 5, 23, 6, 5, 1, 2, 9, 8]
5.
6. # initializing a variable that will store the sum
7. sum_ = 0
8.
9. # using for loop to iterate over list
10. for num in range( len(numbers) ):
11.
12. sum_ = sum_ + numbers[num] ** 2
13.
14. print("The sum of squares is: ", sum_)

Output:

The sum of squares is: 774

Using else Statement with for Loop

Code

1. # code to print marks of a student from the record

2. student_name_1 = 'Itika'
3. student_name_2 = 'Parker'
4.
5.
6. # Creating a dictionary of records of the students
7. records = {'Itika': 90, 'Arshia': 92, 'Peter': 46}
8. def marks( student_name ):
9. for a_student in record: # for loop will iterate over the keys of the dictionary
10. if a_student == student_name:
11. return records[ a_student ]
12. break
13. else:
14. return f'There is no student of name {student_name} in the records'
15.
16. # giving the function marks() name of two students
17. print( f"Marks of {student_name_1} are: ", marks( student_name_1 ) )
18. print( f"Marks of {student_name_2} are: ", marks( student_name_2 ) )

Output:

2
 Marks of Itika are: 90
Marks of Parker are: There is no student of name Parker in the records

Nested Loops
If we have a piece of content that we need to run various times and, afterward, one
more piece of content inside that script that we need to run B several times, we
utilize a "settled circle." While working with an iterable in the rundowns, Python
broadly uses these.

Code

1. import random
2. numbers = [ ]
3. for val in range(0, 11):
4. numbers.append( random.randint( 0, 11 ) )
5. for num in range( 0, 11 ):
6. for i in numbers:
7. if num == i:
8. print( num, end = " " )

Output:

0 2 4 5 6 7 8 8 9 10

Program code 1:

Now we give code examples of while loops in Python for printing numbers from 1 to
10. The code is given below -

1. i=1
2. while i<=10:
3. print(i, end=' ')
4. i+=1

Output:

Now we compile the above code in python, and after successful compilation, we run
it. Then the output is given below -

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

Program Code 2:

Now we give code examples of while loops in Python for Printing those numbers
divisible by either 5 or 7 within 1 to 50 using a while loop. The code is given below -

3
1. i=1
2. while i<51:
3. if i%5 == 0 or i%7==0 :
4. print(i, end=' ')
5. i+=1

Output:

Now we compile the above code in python, and after successful compilation, we run
it. Then the output is given below -

5 7 10 14 15 20 21 25 28 30 35 40 42 45 49 50

In this example, we will use the while loop for printing the multiplication table of a
given number. The code is given below -

ADVERTISEMENT

1. num = 21
2. counter = 1
3. # we will use a while loop for iterating 10 times for the multiplication table
4. print("The Multiplication Table of: ", num)
5. while counter <= 10: # specifying the condition
6. ans = num * counter
7. print (num, 'x', counter, '=', ans)
8. counter += 1 # expression to increment the counter

Output:

Now we compile the above code in python, and after successful compilation, we run
it. Then the output is given below -

The Multiplication Table of: 21

21 x 1 = 21
21 x 2 = 42
21 x 3 = 63
21 x 4 = 84
21 x 5 = 105
21 x 6 = 126
21 x 7 = 147
21 x 8 = 168
21 x 9 = 189
21 x 10 = 210

Python While Loop with List

Program Code 1:

 Now we give code examples of while loops in Python for square every number of a
list. The code is given below -

1. # Python program to square every number of a list

2. # initializing a list
3. list_ = [3, 5, 1, 4, 6]
4. squares = []
5. # programing a while loop
6. while list_: # until list is not empty this expression will give boolean True after that False
7. squares.append( (list_.pop())**2)
8. # Print the squares of all numbers.
9. print( squares )

Output:

Now we compile the above code in python, and after successful compilation, we run
it. Then the output is given below -

[36, 16, 1, 25, 9]

In the preceding example, we execute a while loop over a given list of integers that
will repeatedly run if an element in the list is found.

Program Code 2:

Now we give code examples of while loops in Python for determine odd and even
number from every number of a list. The code is given below -

1. list_ = [3, 4, 8, 10, 34, 45, 67,80] # Initialize the list

2. index = 0
3. while index < len(list_):
4. element = list_[index]
5. if element % 2 == 0:
6. print('It is an even number') # Print if the number is even.
7. else:
8. print('It is an odd number') # Print if the number is odd.
9. index += 1

Output:

Now we compile the above code in python, and after successful compilation, we run
it. Then the output is given below -

It is an odd number
It is an even number
It is an even number
It is an even number
5
 It is an even number
It is an odd number
It is an odd number
It is an even number

Program Code 3:

Now we give code examples of while loops in Python for determine the number
letters of every word from the given list. The code is given below -

1. List_= ['Priya', 'Neha', 'Cow', 'To']

2. index = 0
3. while index < len(List_):
4. element = List_[index]
5. print(len(element))
6. index += 1

Output:

Now we compile the above code in python, and after successful compilation, we run
it. Then the output is given below -

Python While Loop Multiple Conditions

We must recruit logical operators to combine two or more expressions specifying
conditions into a single while loop. This instructs Python on collectively analyzing all
the given expressions of conditions.

We can construct a while loop with multiple conditions in this example. We have
given two conditions and a and keyword, meaning the Loop will execute the
statements until both conditions give Boolean True.

Program Code:

Now we give code examples of while loops in Python for multiple condition. The
code is given below -

1. num1 = 17
2. num2 = -12
3.
4. while num1 > 5 and num2 < -5 : # multiple conditions in a single while loop
5. num1 -= 2
6. num2 += 3
7. print( (num1, num2) )
6
 Output:

Now we compile the above code in python, and after successful compilation, we run
it. Then the output is given below -

(15, -9)
(13, -6)
(11, -3)

Let's look at another example of multiple conditions with an OR operator.

Code

1. num1 = 17
2. num2 = -12
3.
4. while num1 > 5 or num2 < -5 :
5. num1 -= 2
6. num2 += 3
7. print( (num1, num2) )

Output:

Now we compile the above code in python, and after successful compilation, we run
it. Then the output is given below -

(15, -9)
(13, -6)
(11, -3)
(9, 0)
(7, 3)
(5, 6)

We can also group multiple logical expressions in the while loop, as shown in this
example.

Code

1. num1 = 9
2. num = 14
3. maximum_value = 4
4. counter = 0
5. while (counter < num1 or counter < num2) and not counter >= maximum_value: # g
rouping multiple conditions
6. print(f"Number of iterations: {counter}")
7. counter += 1

Output:

7
 Now we compile the above code in python, and after successful compilation, we run
it. Then the output is given below -

Number of iterations: 0
Number of iterations: 1
Number of iterations: 2
Number of iterations: 3

Single Statement While Loop

Similar to the if statement syntax, if our while clause consists of one statement, it may
be written on the same line as the while keyword.

Here is the syntax and example of a one-line while clause -

1. # Python program to show how to create a single statement while loop

2. counter = 1
3. while counter: print('Python While Loops')

Loop Control Statements

Now we will discuss the loop control statements in detail. We will see an example of
each control statement.

Continue Statement
It returns the control of the Python interpreter to the beginning of the loop.

Code

1. # Python program to show how to use continue loop control

2.
3. # Initiating the loop
4. for string in "While Loops":
5. if string == "o" or string == "i" or string == "e":
6. continue
7. print('Current Letter:', string)

Now we compile the above code in python, and after successful compilation, we run
it. Then the output is given below -

Output:

Current Letter: W
Current Letter: h
Current Letter: l
Current Letter:
Current Letter: L
Current Letter: p
Current Letter: s

8
 Break Statement
It stops the execution of the loop when the break statement is reached.

Code

1. # Python program to show how to use the break statement

2.
3. # Initiating the loop
4. for string in "Python Loops":
5. if string == 'n':
6. break
7. print('Current Letter: ', string)

Output:

Now we compile the above code in python, and after successful compilation, we run
it. Then the output is given below -

Current Letter: P
Current Letter: y
Current Letter: t
Current Letter: h
Current Letter: o

Pass Statement
Pass statements are used to create empty loops. Pass statement is also employed for
classes, functions, and empty control statements.

Code

1. # Python program to show how to use the pass statement

2. for a string in "Python Loops":
3. pass
4. print( 'The Last Letter of given string is:', string)

Now we compile the above code in python, and after successful compilation, we run
it. Then the output is given below -

Output:

The Last Letter of given string is: s
