Loop Concepts

100

A programming structure used to repeat instructions.

Loop

200

Python has two main loops taught in this course.

for and while

300

This loop repeats code while a condition is true.

while loop

400

This loop is usually used with range() to repeat a certain number of times.

for loop

500

A loop that never stops running.

Infinite loop

For Loops

100

The keyword used to start this loop.

for

200

This function generates a sequence of numbers for loops.

range()

300

How many times will this run? 

for i in range(5)

5

400

What is the last value of i? 

for i in range(1,6)

5

500

How many iterations occur? 

for x in range(2,10,2)

4 iterations (2,4,6,8)

While Loops

100

The keyword used to create this loop.

while

200

This controls whether the loop continues running.

Condition

300

What happens if the condition never becomes false?

Infinite loop

400

What will be printed? 

x=1

while x<=3: 

        print(x) 

        x+=1

1 2 3

500

How many times will this loop run? 

x=4

while x>0: 

        x-=1

4 times

Jump Statements

100

This statement immediately exits a loop.

break

200

This statement skips the current iteration and continues to the next.

continue

300

What will be printed? 

for i in range(5): 

     if i==3: 

     break 

     print(i)

0 1 2

400

What will be printed? 

for i in range(5): 

     if i==2: 

     continue 

     print(i)

0 1 3 4

500

What will be printed? 

for i in range(1,6): 

     if i==4: 

     break 

     print(i)
