Day 14: Python Loops

Understanding Loops in Python

Loops in Python provide a way to repeat a block of code multiple times. There are two main types of loops in Python: for loops and while loops. A for loop is used to iterate over a sequence such as a list or a string. For instance, you can use a for loop to print each item in a list. On the other hand, a while loop is used to repeat a block of code as long as a certain condition is true. For example, you can use a while loop to print a message ten times.

Using For Loops in Python

fruits = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]
for x in fruits:
    print(x)

In the above example, we use a for loop to iterate over the fruits list and print each item.

Using While Loops in Python

count = 0
while count < 10:
    print("Hello!")
    count += 1

In this example, we use a while loop to print the message "Hello!" ten times.

By understanding how to use for and while loops in Python, you can effectively repeat blocks of code in your programs. Stay tuned for more Python-related content.
