Control

a loop

AISMV-----INFORMATICS PRACTICES-----XI
while loop : Entry controlled Loop
Syntax:

while expression:
statement(s)

Necessary Conditions:

1) Initialization
2) Terminating Condition
3) Iteration

AISMV-----INFORMATICS PRACTICES-----XI
while loop allows multiple ways of iteration
Fixed number of steps

i=1
while(i<=10):
print(i)
i=i+1

AISMV-----INFORMATICS PRACTICES-----XI
While loop also works when number of steps are not known

Example

i=100
while(i>0):
print(i)
i=i/3

AISMV-----INFORMATICS PRACTICES-----XI
To count number of digits
n=int(input('Enter a number'))
c=0
while(n>0):
c=c+1
n=n//10
print(c)

AISMV-----INFORMATICS PRACTICES-----XI
While loop to do digit extraction
n=int(input('Enter a number'))
while(n>0):
print(n%10)
n=n//10

AISMV-----INFORMATICS PRACTICES-----XI
WAP to input a number and find the sum of
digits of the number.
n=int(input('Enter a number'))
s=0
while(n>0):
s=s+n%10
print(n%10)
n=n//10
print(“The sum of digits are = “,s)

AISMV-----INFORMATICS PRACTICES-----XI
To do: To reverse a number using digit
extraction
n=int(input('Enter a number'))
s=0
while(n>0):
s=s*10+n%10
n=n//10
print(s)

AISMV-----INFORMATICS PRACTICES-----XI
To do activity: Find if a number is
palindrome by using digit extraction
n=int(input('Enter a number'))
s=0
t=n
while(n>0):
s=s*10+n%10
n=n//10
print(s)
if(s==t):
print("Palindrome")
else:
print("Not a Palindrome")

Create menu driven program using while
loop
while(True):
print("1. Add")
print("2. Subtract")
print('3. Multiply')
print('4. Divide')
ch=int(input('Enter your choice'))
x=int(input('Enter the first number'))
y=int(input('Enter the second number'))
if(ch==1):
print(x+y)
elif(ch==2):
print(x-y)

Write a program to display the menu for calculating the area of a circle, square, triangle and
sphere. Depending on the choice of the user, the inputs should be taken and the are area
should be displayed.

Sample Output:
Calculate Area:
1. Circle
2. Square
3. Triangle
4. Sphere
Enter your choice: 2
Enter the side: 4
The Area is 16

 Find if a number is an Armstrong Number.
A positive integer of n digits is called an Armstrong number of order n (order is number of digits)
If abcd... = pow(a,n) + pow(b,n) + pow(c,n) + pow(d,n) + ....
153 = is an Armstrong number. 1*1*1 + 5*5*5 + 3*3*3 = 153
120 is not a Armstrong number. 1*1*1 + 2*2*2 + 0*0*0 = 9

n=int(input('Enter a number'))
d=len(str(n))
t=n
s=0
while(n>0):
r=n%10
s=s+r**d
n=n//10
if(s==t):
print("Armstrong")
else:
print("Not an Armstrong number")

Practice Question
Neon number:
A number is said to be a Neon Number if the sum of
digits of the square of the number is equal to the
number itself. Example 9 is a Neon Number. 9*9=81 and
8+1=9.Hence it is a Neon Number.

Infinite Loop
i=10
while(i>0):
print(i)

while(True):
print('Hello')

i=15
while("i"):
print(i)
i=i-1
Find the output:
i=0
while i < 3:
print(i)
i += 1
else:
print(0)

x = "abcdef"
while i in x:
print(i, end=" ")

x = "abcdef"
i = "i"
while i in x:
print(i, end=" ")
 ❖Loop control statements change
execution from its normal sequence.
Loop Control
Statements ❖When execution leaves a scope, all
automatic objects that were created
in that scope are destroyed.
Loop Control Statements

break continue pass

 Loop Control Statement : continue
It returns the control to the beginning of the loop.
Causes the loop to skip the remainder of its body and immediately retest its
condition prior to reiterating.
Here print() statement is
for letter in 'Python’: condition
if letter == 'y' or letter == 'o’:
continue
print('Current Letter :', letter)
When variables are y or o
print will be skipped
Output:
Current Letter : P
Current Letter : t
Any statements below
Current Letter : h
continue inside the loop will
Current Letter : n be skipped
continue statement : Find the output
i=11 Output:
s=0
10
while(i>0): 8
i=i-1 7
5
if(i%3==0): 4
2
continue 1
print(i) Sum 37
s=s+i
print("Sum",s)
Loop Control Statement: break
Terminates the loop statement and transfers execution to the statement immediately following
the loop.

for letter in 'Python’:

if letter == 'y' or letter == 'o’: Here the loop will terminate
break as soon as ‘y’ or ‘o’ character
print('Current Letter :', letter) is iterated

Current Letter : P
break statement : Find the output
i=1
while True:
if i%2 == 0:
break
print(i)
i += 2

i=0
while i < 5:
print(i)
i += 1
if i == 3:
break
else:
print(0)
Using break statement in Programming
Finding a program to find if a number is prime

n=int(input('Enter a number'))
srt=int(n**0.5)
for i in range(2,srt+1):
if(n%i==0):
print("Not Prime")
break
else:
print('Prime')
In Python programming, the pass statement is a null statement.

The difference between a comment and a pass statement in

Loop control
Python is that while the interpreter ignores a comment
entirely, pass is not ignored.
statements:
pass
pass means do nothing
Example of pass statement
for i in range(1,10):
pass
print(i)

for i in range(1,10):
if(i%2==0):
pass
else:
print(i)
