Python Loop Examples & Factorial

The document contains examples of using for loops in Python. It shows how to use break and continue statements to exit or skip iterations of a loop early. It also demonstrates nested loops, where an inner loop runs completely for each iteration of the outer loop. Examples include printing adjective-fruit pairs in a nested loop and calculating the sum of numbers in a list using a for loop.

num = int(input("number:"))

factorial=1

if num < 0:

print("must be positive")

elif num == 0:

print("1")

else:

for i in range(1,num + 1):

factorial = factorial * i

print(factorial)

With the break statement we can stop the loop before it has looped through all
the items:

fruits = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]

for x in fruits:

print(x)

if x == "banana":

break
fruits = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]

for x in fruits:

if x == "banana":

break

print(x)

With the continue statement we can stop the current iteration of the loop, and continue with the next:

fruits = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]

for x in fruits:

if x == "banana":

continue

print(x)

for x in range(6):

print(x)

for x in range(2, 6):

print(x)

for x in range(2, 30, 3):

print(x)
Nested Loops

A nested loop is a loop inside a loop.

The "inner loop" will be executed one time for each iteration of the "outer loop":

Example

Print each adjective for every fruit:

adj = ["red", "big", "tasty"]

fruits = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]

for x in adj:

for y in fruits:

print(x, y)

# Program to find the sum of all numbers stored in a list

# List of numbers

numbers = [6, 5, 3, 8, 4, 2, 5, 4, 11]

# variable to store the sum

sum = 0

# iterate over the list


for val in numbers:

sum = sum+val

# Output: The sum is 48

print("The sum is", sum)
