Python Loops
There may be a situation when you need to execute a block of code several number of times. In general, statements are executed sequentially: The first statement in a function is executed first, followed by the second, and so on.
Programming languages provide various control structures that allow for more complicated execution paths.
A loop statement allows us to execute a statement or group of statements multiple times and following is the general form of a loop statement in most of the programming languages:
Python programming language provides following types of loops to handle looping requirements. Click the following links to check their detail.
Loop Type
Description
while loop
Repeats a statement or group of statements while a given condition is true. It tests the condition before executing the loop body.
for loop
Executes a sequence of statements multiple times and abbreviates the code that manages the loop variable.
nested loops
You can use one or more loop inside any another while, for ordo..while loop.
Loop Control Statements:
Loop control statements change execution from its normal sequence. When execution leaves a scope, all automatic objects that were created in that scope are destroyed.
Python supports the following control statements. Click the following links to check their detail.
Control Statement
Description
break statement
Terminates the loop statement and transfers execution to the statement immediately following the loop.
continue statement
Causes the loop to skip the remainder of its body and immediately retest its condition prior to reiterating.
pass statement
The pass statement in Python is used when a statement is required syntactically but you do not want any command or code to execute.
