Flow of Control
1. if statement
2. if-else statement
3. elif statement
2. if-else statement: When the condition is true, then code associated with if
statement will execute, otherwise code associated with else statement will execute.
Example:
a=10
b=20
if a>b:
print(“a is greater”)
else:
print(“b is greater”)
3. elif statement: It is short form of else-if statement. If the previous conditions were
not true, then do this condition”. It is also known as nested if statement.
Example:
a=input(“Enter first number”)
b=input(“Enter Second Number:”)
if a>b:
print(“a is greater”)
elif a==b:
print(“both numbers are equal”)
else:
print(“b is greater”)
LOOPS in PYTHON
i while loop: With the while loop we can execute a set of statements as long as a
condition is true. It requires to define an indexing variable.
Example: To print table of number 2
i=2
while i<=20:
print(i)
i+=2
ii.for loop : The for loop iterate over a given sequence (it may be list, tuple or string).
Note: The for loop does not require an indexing variable to set beforehand, as the for
command itself allows for this. primes = [2, 3, 5, 7]
for x in primes:
print(x)
Note:
JUMP STATEMENTS:
There are two jump statements in python:
1. break
2. continue
1. break statement : With the break statement we can stop the loop even if it is true.
Example:
Note: If the break statement appears in a nested loop, then it will terminate the very loop
it is in i.e. if the break statement is inside the inner loop then it will terminate the inner
loop only and the outer loop will continue as it is.
2. continue statement : With the continue statement we can stop the current
iteration, and continue with the next iteration.
Example:
