1.2 Conditional and Looping

The document explains Python conditional statements and loop statements, detailing their syntax and providing examples. Conditional statements include 'if', 'if-else', 'if-elif-else', and nested 'if' statements for decision-making in programs. Loop statements such as 'while', 'for', and nested loops allow for repetitive execution of code, with 'break' and 'continue' statements to control loop behavior.

Python Conditional Statements

What are Conditional Statements?

Conditional statements allow you to execute specific blocks of code based


on certain conditions. These statements control the flow of execution and
enable decision-making in programs.

if Statement

Syntax:

if condition:

# code to execute if condition is true

Example:

age = 18

if age >= 18:

print("You are an adult.")

if-else Statement

Syntax:

if condition:

# code to execute if condition is true

else:

# code to execute if condition is false

Example:

age = 16

if age >= 18:

print("You are an adult.")

else:

print("You are not an adult.")

if-elif-else Statement

Syntax:

if condition1:

# code to execute if condition1 is true

elif condition2:
# code to execute if condition2 is true

else:

# code to execute if both conditions are false

Example:

score = 85

if score >= 90:

print("Grade: A")

elif score >= 80:

print("Grade: B")

elif score >= 70:

print("Grade: C")

else:

print("Grade: D")

Nested if Statements

Syntax:

if condition1:

if condition2:

# code to execute if both condition1 and condition2 are true

Example:

age = 20

gender = "male"

if age >= 18:

if gender == "male":

print("Adult male.")

else:

print("Adult female.")

else:

print("Minor.")

Python Loop Statements


What are Loop Statements?

Loop statements allow you to execute a block of code repeatedly based on


a condition. They are used to perform repetitive tasks efficiently.

while Loop

Syntax:

while condition:

# code to execute while condition is true

Example:

count = 0

while count < 5:

print(count)

count += 1

for Loop

Syntax:

for variable in iterable:

# code to execute for each item in iterable

Example:

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

for fruit in fruits:

print(fruit)

Using range() with for Loop

Syntax:

for variable in range(start, stop[, step]):

# code to execute

Example:

for i in range(1, 5):

print(i)

Nested Loops

Syntax:
for outer_variable in iterable1:

for inner_variable in iterable2:

# code to execute

Example:

for i in range(1, 4):

for j in range(1, 3):

print(i, j)

break Statement

 Purpose: Terminates the loop prematurely.

Example:

for i in range(10):

if i == 5:

break

print(i)

continue Statement

 Purpose: Skips the current iteration and proceeds to the next.

Example:

for i in range(10):

if i % 2 == 0:

continue

print
