Python 'for' Loops Practice with Comments and Outputs
Question 1: Write a `for` loop that prints the numbers from 1 to 5 (inclusive).
for i in range(1, 6):
print(i)
Comments: This loop iterates from 1 to 5 and prints each number in the range.
Output:
Question 2: Write a `for` loop that prints all even numbers from 2 to 10 (inclusive).
for i in range(2, 11, 2):
print(i)
Comments: Using a step of 2 ensures only even numbers are printed.
Output:
10
Question 3: Write a `for` loop that calculates the sum of all numbers from 1 to 100 (inclusive).
total_sum = 0
for i in range(1, 101):
total_sum += i
print(total_sum)
Comments: The loop adds each number in the range to the total_sum variable.
Output:
5050
Question 4: Write a `for` loop that prints the multiplication table for the number 5 (from 1 to
10).
for i in range(1, 11):
print(f"5 x {i} = {5 * i}")
Comments: The loop uses formatted strings to generate the multiplication table.
Output:
5 x 1 = 5
5 x 2 = 10
...
5 x 10 = 50
Question 5: Write a `for` loop that finds and prints all the prime numbers between 1 and 50.
for i in range(2, 51):
is_prime = True
for j in range(2, i):
if i % j == 0:
is_prime = False
break
if is_prime:
print(i)
Comments: This nested loop checks divisibility of each number to determine if it's prime.
Output:
11
... up to 47
Question 6: Write a `for` loop that prints a list of all numbers from 1 to 20, with specific rules
for divisibility by 3 and 5.
for i in range(1, 21):
if i % 3 == 0 and i % 5 == 0:
print("FizzBuzz")
elif i % 3 == 0:
print("Fizz")
elif i % 5 == 0:
print("Buzz")
else:
print(i)
Comments: The loop uses conditional statements to print special words for multiples.
Output:
Fizz
Buzz
... up to 20
Question 7: Write a `for` loop that prints a list of all numbers from 1 to 100, with specific rules
for multiples of 3 and 5.
for i in range(1, 101):
if i % 3 == 0 and i % 5 == 0:
print("FooBar")
elif i % 3 == 0:
print("Foo")
elif i % 5 == 0:
print("Bar")
else:
print(i)
Comments: Similar to the FizzBuzz problem but uses 'Foo' and 'Bar' for custom outputs.
Output:
Foo
4
Bar
... up to 100
Question 8: Write a `for` loop that prints a multiplication table for numbers 1 to 5.
for i in range(1, 6):
for j in range(1, 6):
print(f"{i} x {j} = {i * j}", end="\t")
print()
Comments: This nested loop generates a full multiplication table for numbers 1 to 5.
Output:
1 x 1 = 1 1 x 2 = 2 ... 1 x 5 = 5
2 x 1 = 2 2 x 2 = 4 ... 2 x 5 = 10
...
5 x 1 = 5 ... 5 x 5 = 25
Question 9: Write a `for` loop that calculates the factorial of a number.
number = 6
factorial = 1
for i in range(1, number + 1):
factorial *= i
print(f"The factorial of {number} is {factorial}")
Comments: The loop multiplies all integers from 1 to the specified number.
Output:
720
Question 10: Write a `for` loop that generates and prints a list of Fibonacci numbers up to a
certain limit (100).
a, b = 0, 1
while a <= 100:
print(a)
a, b = b, a + b
Comments: The loop generates Fibonacci numbers by updating two variables iteratively.
Output:
... up to 89
