Python Notes N5 - Variables and Arrays

Surender Samapath Date : 10/02/2025 V:1.0

What is a variable?

A variable is a named memory location that holds data that during the execution of a program, the data
can change

Variables can store a variety of different types of data such as integer, float, boolean.

Data initiailation: Set to empty.

a = 0

To store data in a variable, the process of assignment is used.

a = 10

What is an array?

Note:
Array : It is a collection of data items of same data type.
List : It is a collection of data items of different data type.
Index : It's the address or pointer to to access the element based on its position.
Print a particular elment in array :

a = ["Apple", "Banana", "Orange", "Grape"]

print(a[0]) # Output: Apple


print(a[1]) # Output: Banana
print(a[2]) # Output: Orange
print(a[3]) # Output: Grape

Assign/Modify a particular elment in array using it's index.

fruits = ["Apple", "Banana", "Orange", "Grape"]

# Modify the value at index 0.


fruits [0] = "Lemon"

print (fruits)

The above code will output

['Lemon', 'Banana', 'Orange', 'Grape']

✅ Arrays store multiple values in one variable.


✅ Indexing starts from 0.
✅ Arrays are accessed using [ ] - Square Brackets. Only for ARRAYS.
Printing a List Line by Line using len() and for Loop :

✅ What is a Loop?
A loop helps us repeat a set of lines without writing the same code again and again.

fruits = ["Apple", "Banana", "Orange", "Grape"]

fruits_length = len(fruits)

for i in range(fruits_length):
print(fruits[i])

How does it work?

1. len(fruits) returns the length of the list (4 items in this case).


2. range(fruits_length) ensures that the code will 4 times. Because length is 4.
3. for i in range(len(a)): loops through each index number. i value starts 0 and increments at
each loop. But not greater than range.
4. print(a[i]) prints the fruit at that index.

What do you need to loop through Array?

✅ i as an interator. Name can vary.

✅Length of Array to control the Loop.

✅[] to access the array using i .

📚 Check If a Fruit Exists in the Array (User Input) in Python

fruits = ["Apple", "Banana", "Orange", "Grape", "Blueberry"]

# Get user input


user_input = str(input("Enter the fruit name to check: "))
fruits_length = len(fruits)

# Loop through the list and check if the fruit starts with 'B'
for i in range(fruits_length):
if user_input == i:
print("Fruit is Found")
Print a multiplication table using FOR LOOP

Write a code to print a Multiplication table of 2 upt o 5 times.

# Multiplication table of 2 up to 5 times


num = 2
times = 5

for i in range(5):
print( num , "x" , i+1 , "=" , num * (i+1) )

The above code will output.

2 x 1 = 2
2 x 2 = 4
2 x 3 = 6
2 x 4 = 8
2 x 5 = 10

Note: Can you do the a multiplication table as per user choice?

Explain: Why are adding 1 to i?

Question : Print first 20 odd numbers.

Running Total

Running total means adding values in the Array to the sum using a for loop.

A running total, also known as sum, is a calculation that progressively adds each value in a sequence to
the sum of all previous values. It represents a running or ongoing sum that updates with each new data
point.

✅ Sum variable is declared before the loop.

✅ Sum variable is printed after the loop.

To count sum of 5 numbers

# Running total of 5 numbers from USER.


sum_total = 0 # Initialise sum
total_input = 5 # Numbers to Add.
for i in range(total_input):
num = int(input("Enter a number: "))
sum_total += num # Add number to sum

print("Total Sum:", sum_total)

Calculate average height of students

# Sample array of student heights (in cm)


student_heights = [160, 152, 145, 172, 155]

# Calculate total number of students


num_students = len(student_heights)

# Initialise running total


total_height = 0

# Loop through the array to calculate running total


for i in range(num_students):
# Add each height to total.
total_height = total_height + student_heights[i]

# Compute average height


average_height = total_height / num_students

# Print the results using string formatting


print("Total Height:", total_height, "cm")
print("Average Height:", average_height, "cm")

Output for above program:

Total Height: 1601 cm


Average Height: 160.1 cm

Calculate the number of students taller than 150 cms.

# Sample array of student heights (in cm)


student_heights = [160, 152, 145, 172, 155]

# Calculate total number of students


num_students = len(student_heights)

# Initialise a variable counter


tall_students = 0
# Loop through the array and use criteria
for i in range(num_students):
# Using if to filter criteria
if student_heights[i]>150:
# Add each height to total.
tall_students = tall_students + 1

# Print the results using string formatting


print("Total Students above 150 cms:", tall_students)
