Control Constructs

Python supports following control constructs.

Week 3 we have done them in detail.
▪ if Statement
▪ if…elif Statement
▪ while loop
▪ for loop

Selection Example
Selection Example OUIPUT
x = int(input("Number ? ")) Number ? 20
if x % 2 == 0: 20 is EVEN
print(x,"is EVEN")
else: Input A? 12
print(x,"is ODD") Input B? 19
print() 12 is Less than 19
A = int(input("Input A? "))
B = int(input("Input B? ")) OUIPUT
if A > B: Number ? 13
print(A,"is Greater than",B) 13 is ODD
elif A < B:
print(A,"is Less than",B) Input A? 25
else: Input B? 25
print(A,"is Equal to",B) 25 is Equal to 25

 Repetition Example
x = 1
while x <= 10: OUIPUT
print(x,end=",")
x = x + 1 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,
print()
for x in range(1,10):
print(x,end=",") 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,
print()
for x in range(1,10,2):
print(x,end=",") 1,3,5,7,9,
print()
for x in range(10,1,-3):
print(x,end=",") 10,7,4,
print()
for x in "Welcome":
print(x,end=",") W,e,l,c,o,m,e,

5
Break keyword

▪ The break statement

terminates the loop
containing it.
▪ If break statement is inside a
nested loop (loop inside
another loop), break will
terminate the innermost loop.

6
Continue keyword

▪ The continue statement is

used to skip the rest of the
code inside a loop for the
current iteration only.
▪ Loop does not terminate
but continues on with the
next iteration.

7
Break & Continue Example
Break & Continue Example OUIPUT
# Use of break in a For Loop s
for val in "string": t
if val == "i": r
break The end
print(val)
print("The end") OUIPUT
# Use of continue in While Loop 1
x = 0 2
while x < 10: 4
x = x + 1 5
if x % 3 == 0: 7
continue 8
print(x) 10
print("The end") The end

8
Else in Loops
Else in Loops Example OUIPUT
x = 1 1
while x<=5: 2
print(x) 3
x = x + 1 4
else: 5
print("The end value of x = ",x) The end value of x = 6
print("** The End **") ** The End **

▪ In almost every programming language ‘else’ can be used only with conditional
statements
▪ Python allows us to use else statements with loops too.
▪ Else block is executed just after just after final iteration

9
Else in Loops
Else in Loops Example OUIPUT
for x in range(1, 5): 1
if x == 3: 2
break ** The End ** OUIPUT
print(x) 1
2
else: 4
print("The end value of x = ",x) The end value of x = 4
print("** The End **") ** The End **

▪ Else block is not executed break keyword is used, as it terminates a loop before
its normal completion
▪ Now change the above program by replacing the break keyword with continue
keyword and run the program again.

print() Function

print(*objects, sep=' ', end='\n', file=sys.stdout, flush=False)

▪ objects – is the value(s) to be printed.

▪ sep – is the separator used between the values. It defaults into
a space character.
▪ end – is printed after all values are printed. It defaults into a new
line.
▪ file – is the object where the values are printed and its default
value is sys.stdout (screen).

11
print() Example1
Print() Example OUIPUT
print('Hello','Welcome’) Hello Welcome

a = 5
print("Value of a is",a) Value of a is 5

print(1,2,3,4) 1 2 3 4

print(1,2,3,4,sep='*’) 1*2*3*4

print(1,2,3,4,sep='#',end='&') 1#2#3#4&

12
print() Example1
Print() Example OUIPUT
x = 5; y = 10 Value of x is 5, y is 10
print(“Value of x is {}, y is {}“
.format(x,y))
print("I love {0} and {1}“
.format("bread","butter")) I love bread and butter
print("I love {1} and {0}".
format("bread","butter")) I love butter and bread
a = 12.3456789
print("Value of a = ",a) Value of a = 12.3456789
print("Value of a = %3.1f "%a) Value of a = 12.3
print("Value of a = %3.2f "%a) Value of a = 12.35

13
input() Function

>>> num = input('Enter a number: ')

input([prompt]) Enter a number: 10
>>> num

Python provides this function to read a '10’

line of text from standard input, which by
default comes from the keyboard. Here the Value is String. This can be
converted as follows:
>>> int(num)
10
>>> float(num)
10.0
