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
conditiondo
something-
while condition:
-
statement
-
-
Infinite Loop: Use
while True
to create an infinite loop-
while True:
-
statement
-
For Loops
-
Basic Syntax:
for
variablein
iterabledo
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 syntaxfor 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 syntaxfor element in tuple:
- Dictionaries can be iterated over using a
for
loop with the syntaxfor key, value in dictionary.items():
to access both key and value - Dictionaries can be iterated over using a
for
loop with the syntaxfor key in dictionary.keys():
to access only the keys - Dictionaries can be iterated over using a
for
loop with the syntaxfor 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 iswhile condition: statement
- The
while True
statement can be used to create an infinite loop
For Loops
- The basic syntax for a
for
loop isfor variable in iterable: statement
- The
range
function can be used to iterate over a range of numbers with the syntaxfor variable in range(start, stop, step):
- The
enumerate
function can be used to iterate over both index and value with the syntaxfor index, value in enumerate(iterable):
