Study Notes

Iterating Over Data Structures

  • Lists: Iterate over elements using for loop
    • for element in list:
    • for index, element in enumerate(list): (access both index and element)
  • Tuples: Iterate over elements using for loop
    • for element in tuple:
  • Dictionaries: Iterate over key-value pairs using for loop
    • for key, value in dictionary.items():
    • for key in dictionary.keys(): (iterate over keys only)
    • for value in dictionary.values(): (iterate over values only)

Loop Control Statements

  • Break: Exit the loop prematurely
    • break statement
  • Continue: Skip to the next iteration
    • continue statement
  • Pass: Do nothing (used as a placeholder)
    • pass statement

Nested Loops

  • Nested For Loops: Iterate over multiple data structures
    • for element1 in list1:
    • for element2 in list2:
  • Nested While Loops: Iterate over multiple conditions
    • while condition1:
    • while condition2:

While Loops

  • Basic Syntax: while condition do something
    • while condition:
    • statement
  • Infinite Loop: Use while True to create an infinite loop
    • while True:
    • statement

For Loops

  • Basic Syntax: for variable in iterable do something
    • for variable in iterable:
    • statement
  • Range Function: Iterate over a range of numbers
    • for variable in range(start, stop, step):
  • Enumerate Function: Iterate over both index and value
    • for index, value in enumerate(iterable):

Iterating Over Data Structures

  • Lists can be iterated over using a for loop with the syntax for element in list:
  • Lists can also be iterated over with both index and element using for index, element in enumerate(list):
  • Tuples can be iterated over using a for loop with the syntax for element in tuple:
  • Dictionaries can be iterated over using a for loop with the syntax for key, value in dictionary.items(): to access both key and value
  • Dictionaries can be iterated over using a for loop with the syntax for key in dictionary.keys(): to access only the keys
  • Dictionaries can be iterated over using a for loop with the syntax for value in dictionary.values(): to access only the values

Loop Control Statements

  • The break statement is used to exit a loop prematurely
  • The continue statement is used to skip to the next iteration
  • The pass statement is used as a placeholder and does nothing

Nested Loops

  • Nested for loops can be used to iterate over multiple data structures
  • Nested while loops can be used to iterate over multiple conditions

While Loops

  • The basic syntax for a while loop is while condition: statement
  • The while True statement can be used to create an infinite loop

For Loops

  • The basic syntax for a for loop is for variable in iterable: statement
  • The range function can be used to iterate over a range of numbers with the syntax for variable in range(start, stop, step):
  • The enumerate function can be used to iterate over both index and value with the syntax for index, value in enumerate(iterable):
