FOR LOOP IN PYTHON

The for loop

Looping: As the name suggests, the statement which runs in loop (goes on from start to end to
start) are termed as looping statements. These statements are also known as Flow Control
statements because the flow of these loops are controlled with the help of certain conditions
which help in proper iterations.

For loop is the most basic yet versatile flow control statement. Let us look at its syntax:

Syntax:
for val in sequence:

Statement 1

Statement 2

Statement 3

...

Here, as you see, the first statement talks about the initiation and termination of the loop.
Subsequent statements which shall be executed inside the loop are indented under it.

Let's explore the working of for loop

There are two methods to run a for loop

1. using range()
2. using in operator

range(min,max+1,stepvalue)
1-10 range(1,11,1) OR range(1,11)

evenno from 1-10>- range(2,11,2)

 multiples of 5 -- range(5,51,5) it willprint 5,10,15, ......50

range(20) start=0 step=1 by default 0,1,.....19

# Code to print numbers from 1 to 10

for var in range(1,11):

    print(var, end= "-----")

1-----2-----3-----4-----5-----6-----7-----8-----9-----10-----

In the above code, i is a variable which would run for the range mentioned. Here, the rangehas
been mentioned as (q,qq) which means that the loop initiates at 1 and terminates as soon as it
encounters 11.

In other words, we can say that 1 is the starting point for the loop and 11 is the exit point for the
loop.

Here, in the output we can see numbers printed from 0 to 10. Initially i starts with 1.

1 gets printed as the print statement is inside the loop statement. Once print statement has
been executed, i gets incremented to 1. Thus 1 gets printed in the next line. Similarly i gets
incremented everytime till it reaches 11. Once i becomes 11, it reaches the exit point hence the
loop terminates. Which means the print statement is not executed for 11. Therefore we get
numbers from 1 to 10 as output.

The range(1,11) can be described as the sequence for which loop runs.

Examples of for loop with different types of sequences

# 1) sequence = range(n)

#The loop will print no from 0 to 9

for i in range(10):        # If initial point of loop is not mentioned, it is by default
    print(i,end= " ")

for loop using in opeator

# 2) sequence = list of numbers

test_list = [2,4,6,8,10]       # Sample list

print(test_list)

for i in test_list:            # Here, the sequence is of test_list hence the elements o
    print(i)

[2, 4, 6, 8, 10]

# 3) sequence = list with multiple datatypes

test_list = ["one",2,'*',True]

for i in test_list:     # Irrespective of the type of elemets inside the list, they can 
    print(i, end= " ")

one 2 * True

Now that we know different types of sequences, lets try some examples!

# Code to add 2 to each element of a list. 

test_list = [1,4,8,16,-1]

print("Original List", test_list)

for num in range(len(test_list) ):    # len(list_name) gives us the length of the list. 
    test_list[num] = test_list[num] + 2

    

print("New list", test_list)

Original List [1, 4, 8, 16, -1]

New list [3, 6, 10, 18, 1]

# ON THE BASIS OF INDEX 

# Code to add 2 to each element of a list. 

test_list = [1,4,8,16,-1]

print("Original List", test_list)

for i in range(len(test_list) ):    # len(list_name) gives us the length of the list. 

    if i%2==0:

      test_list[i] = test_list[i] + 2

    

print("New list", test_list)

 Original List [1, 4, 8, 16, -1]

New list [3, 4, 10, 16, 1]

In the example above, length of test_list acts as range for the loop. Each element of test_list is
then called using the loop and 2 is added to them. The result overwrites the elements of the
original list.

Nested Loops

Many times, the data which we work upon might not have just one dimension. It can be multi-
dimensional. Hence, we use the concept of Nested Loops in which one or multiple loops come
under the initial loop.

A loop within loop is known as nested loop

Nested loop can be written with the help of for loop
or while loop

SYNTAX OF NESTED LOOP

# This is formatted as code

for i in range(start,end+1): #outer loop

   for j in range(start, end+1): #inner loop

      print("*")

    print()

# 1) sample code of nested for loops

for i in range(5):            # Initial loop running from 0 to 4 OUTER LOOP

    print("start of i = ",i)    

    for j in range(5):        # This is a nested loop as tand comes under the other loop
        print ("j = ",j)     # This print statement is under the  nested loop    

    print("end of i = ",i)

print("end of nested for loops")

start of i = 0

j = 0

j = 1

j = 2

j = 3

j = 4

end of i = 0

start of i = 1

j = 0

j = 1

j = 2

j = 3

j = 4

end of i = 1

start of i = 2

j = 0

j = 1

j = 2

 j = 3

j = 4

end of i = 2

start of i = 3

j = 0

j = 1

j = 2

j = 3

j = 4

end of i = 3

start of i = 4

j = 0

j = 1

j = 2

j = 3

j = 4

end of i = 4

end of nested for loops

In the above code, for each iteration of for i block, a whole for j block is ran. this can be further
nested to as many nests as we want. Note that indentation plays a very important role in this.
Changing the indentation will result in unexpected
answers or might throw an error.

Challenge:
Your school has found that there was an error in AI question paper. To compensate for this
mistake, the school wants to add 5 grace marks to each students' marks. But since it is a time
consuming process, the school has come to you to take help of your programming knowledge.

They have given you a 2-D list with marks of 10 students per class from 5 classes in a list
named marks and asked you to help them for tow challenges:

1. Adding 5 marks to the existing marks.

 2. Assign grades according to the grading system to the students after updating the marks
and store the grades in another list named grades.

Grading system:

Below 25 - F

25 to 40 - E

41 to 60 - D

61 to 75 - C

76 to 90 - B

Above 90 - A

Use your previously acquired skills and complete the challenge!

# Defining a list 2-D list marks having 10 students' marks for 5 classes.

marks = [[87, 91, 48, 53, 65, 79, 57, 85, 94, 82],         # marks of class A

        [61, 73, 37, 85, 45, 85, 92, 18, 18, 89],          # marks of class B

        [87, 94, 35, 65, 84, 64, 25, 61, 46, 28],          # marks of class C

        [56, 19, 55, 77, 52, 84, 47, 32, 88, 68],          # marks of class D

        [75, 95, 58, 52, 65, 77, 65, 62, 91, 45]]          # marks of class E

# Write your code here to complete the challenges given

Note: While using for loop works fine to perform the task, it is a long process, which can be
replaced by a very small code while working with NumPy Arrays, which will be covered in the
next chapter.

Grand Challenge
Your society is installing a security system at the society's entrance. As you have started
working with python, you decide to help them in creating passwords for everyone with the help
of a python script.
The society's secretary is impressed by you and is ready to help you with all
the information you need.
Therefore, your challenge now is to create unique passwords for 50
people according to their names, Age and House number which has been provided by the
secretary.

Example:
Name=Akshay Chawla
Age=24
House no=701

Recommended password can be

A16824(A=Initial of name, 16824=Product of age and house number)

 You can choose your parameter, just make sure that the passwords and random enough that
they can not be predicted easily.
# Details of Name, Age and House numbers

# defining the list called details containing the desired information
