Iteration & Loops
Explore how to use for and while loops in Python to automate repetitive tasks. Learn looping techniques with lists, strings, range, and enumerate functions to control iteration based on conditions and sequences. This lesson helps you handle common iteration patterns to write efficient and clear Python code.
Loops are used in computer programming to automate repetitive tasks.
Types of Loops in Python
In python, there are two types of loops.
For Loop
In Python, the most common form of iteration is the “for” loop.
A for loop is used for iterating over a sequence of items.
The general syntax for creating a for loop is:
for index in sequence:
statement
Here, a sequence can be a list, tuple, dictionary, set, or string.
Note: The for loop does not require an iterating/ indexing variable to set beforehand. The indexing can be defined in a loop. ...
