    Study Notes

    • JavaScript is widely recognized as a primary programming language for web development.

    Python's 'for' Loop

    • Utilized for iterating over sequences (like lists, tuples, or strings), allowing for repeated execution of a block of code for each item.

    Exponentiation in Python

    • The symbol ** is used for exponentiation, raising a number to the power of another.

    Dictionaries in Python

    • A dictionary serves as an unordered collection of key-value pairs, allowing for efficient data retrieval based on unique keys.

    Invalid Data Types in Python

    • Data types like sets or tuples are valid, while types like pointer or fixed-point are not recognized in Python.

    Range Function in Python

    • The range function generates a sequence of numbers, typically used for looping a specific number of times in for loops.

    Purpose of the 'if' Statement

    • The if statement evaluates a condition and executes a block of code only if the condition is true, facilitating decision-making.

    Creating Lists in Python

    • A valid list containing numbers from 1 to 5 can be created using the syntax [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] or using list(range(1, 6)).

    Role of the 'elif' Statement

    • The elif statement provides an additional condition to evaluate if the previous if condition was false, allowing for multiple branching paths in logic.
