Intro to for Loops
Your Website Title Understanding For Loops and Break Statement in Python Introduction For loops are an integral part of any programming language, including Python. They allow us to execute a block of code multiple times, which is particularly useful when we want to iterate over a sequence such as a list, a tuple, a dictionary, a string, etc. In this post, we will also cover the usage of the 'break' statement which allows us to have more control over the loop's execution. Basic For Loop Structure The basic structure of a for loop in Python is as follows: for variable in sequence: # statements to execute for each iteration Here, 'variable' is the variable that takes the value of the item inside the sequence on each iteration. The 'sequence' could be any iterable object in Python. Example 1: for i in range(5): print(i) In the above code, range(5) generates a sequence of numbers from 0 to 4. For each iteration,
