Python Multiplication Table Loops

The document provides an overview of loops in Python, specifically focusing on how to print a multiplication table using both while and for loops. It includes examples of code for generating the multiplication table and calculating the sum of reciprocals of the first 100 natural numbers. Additionally, it discusses the structure of while and for loops, as well as the use of the 'continue' statement in loop control.

Too much'))
print (n, 'X', 1, '=', n*1)repetition!
print (n, 'X', 2, '=', n*2)Can I avoid
print (n, 'X', 3, '=', n*3) it?
print (n, 'X', 4, '=', n*4)
print (n, 'X', 5, '=', n*5)

While Statement
while (expression):
S1 expression
FALSE

S2
TRUE

S1 S2
1. Evaluate expression
2. If TRUE then
a) execute statement1
b) goto step 1.
3. If FALSE then execute statement2.

For Loop
• Print the sum of the reciprocals of the
first 100 natural numbers.

rsum=0.0# the reciprocal sum

# the for loop


for i in range(1,101):
rsum = rsum + 1.0/i
print ('sum is', rsum)

range
• range(s, e, d)
– generates the list:
[s, s+d, s+2*d, …, s+k*d]
where s+k*d < e <= s+(k+1)*d
• range(s, e) is equivalent to range(s, e, 1)
• range(e) is equivalent to range(0, e)
Exercise: What if d is negative? Use python
interpreter to find out.

Quiz
• What will be the output of the following
program

# print all odd numbers < 10


i = 1
while i <= 10:
if i%2==0: # even
continue
print (i, end=‘ ‘)
i = i+1

Continue and Update Expr
• Make sure continue does not bypass update-
expression for while loops

# print all odd numbers < 10


i = 1 i is not incremented
while i <= 10: when even number
if i%2==0: # even encountered.
continue Infinite loop!!
print (i, end=‘ ‘)
i = i+1
