Python Loops Quiz

Loops in Python

• A while loop is a repeated process that continues until a conditional becomes false.

Key Elements of a While Loop

• To solve problems using a while loop, three values need to be identified:
  • Initialization: The starting value of the loop variable.
  • Condition: The conditional statement that is checked at the beginning of each iteration.
  • Increment/Decrement: The operation that updates the loop variable after each iteration.

Range Function

• The default starting value for the range() function in Python is 0.
• When using the range() function, the starting value, stopping value, and step value need to be declared.

Types of Loops

• Python supports two different types of loops:
  • While loops: Used for conditional repetition.
  • For loops: Used for iterative repetition.
