Python Tutorial - While Loop



In this blog, we are going to see the loop in the python programming language. There are two primitive loops in python.

  • while
  • for

While loop:

While loop will repeat the statement until the condition is true. While loop requires a relevant indexing variable. We will declare 'i' here. Which we will set the values as 1.

Example:
                  i=1
                  while i<6:
                  print(i)
                  i+=1
Output:
               1
               2
               3
               4
               5

Explanation:
                     Inline 1, we will assign the value 1 for i. Inline 2 we will use while keyword which defines that it executes the statement until it reaches the value before 6. Inline 3 will print the i.
Inline 4, it will increase the value as 1,2,3 and so on until it reaches the condition.

Break Statement: 
                     The break statement is used to break the loop even the while condition is true. 

Example:
                 i=1
                 while i<6:
                        print(i)
                        if i==3:
                            break
                        i+=1

Output:
                1
                2
                3

Continue statement:
                       Continue statement is used to break the current iteration and it will continue with the next one.

Example:
                 i = 0
                while i < 6:
                       i += 1
                      if i == 3:
                          continue
                      print(i) 

Output:
               1
               2
               4
               5
              
else statement:
                   Else statement in loop condition is used to execute the code block once when the condition is no longer true.

Example:
                 i = 1
                 while i < 6:
                      print(i)
                      i += 1
                  else:
                      print("i is no longer less than 6")

Output:
              1
              2
              3
              4
              5
i is no longer less than 6
