LESSON 5-

FLOW OF CONTROL
Types of statements in Python
• Statements are instructions given to the computer to perform some
kind of action.
• Statements form the smallest executable unit within a python
program.
• Following are 3 types of statements:
1) Empty statement
2) Simple statement i.e. single statement
3) Compound statement
1) Empty statement
• The simplest statement is the empty statement means do nothing.
• Python pass statement is the empty statement.
• Means it is used when a statement is required syntactically but you do
not want any command/code to execute.
• The pass statement is a null operation.
• EG: i =int(input(“enter no “))
if i>10:
pass
else:
print(“i less than 10”)
2) Simple statement
• Any single executable statement is a simple statement in python.
• EG: nm=input(“Enter ur name ”)
print(“hello ”, nm)
3) Compound statement
• Compound statement is a group of statements executed as a unit. It is
like block of code.
• It has header ending with colon (:) and body containing sequence of
statements.
• Mostly used in if statement, for-loop and while-loop.
• EG: i =int(input(“enter no “))
if i>10: header
print(i) Body block
print(“i greater than 10”)
Statement flow control

Statement flow control

Selection Iteration i.e.Loops

Sequence
(if statement) for-loop, while-loop
1)Sequence
• Statements/code execute one after the other is called sequence.
• EG:
X=int(input(“enter no”))
Y=X*X
print(“square =“ , Y)
2) Selection
• Selection also called decision construct because it helps in making
decision and then execute set of code.
• EG:

• Either of statements will execute; makes decision

Flow chart on if…else statement…
Syntax:

else:
statement1
statement2
Flow chart on if…elif… statement…
Syntax:

statement(s)
Programs:
• WAP to input a age from user and print whether user is eligible voter
or not.
• WAP input a number from user and print whether no. is +ve/-ve or
zero.
• WAP to input a single character from user. If character falls in
between 0 to 9 then display “you entered digit” else display “you
entered char” and if user enters space then display “you entered
space”
Executing multiple statements

This code gives ERROR ; in case if

condition is false
Checking and comparing string
literal
S=input("Enter String ")
if S=='Apple’: #single quotes
print("fruit")

OR

if S=="Apple": #double quotes

print("fruit")
Comparing two variables:
A=int(input("enter no 1 "))
B =int(input("enter no 2 "))
if A>B: #values of variables are compared
print(“A is Big”)
Checking/comparing truth value is
True/False
x=input("enter data ")
if x:
print("truth value of x is True")
else:
print("truth value of x is False")
NOTE: if variable has some value then truth value of variable is True
else truth value is False. Any value is true i.e. It can be space/ 0 bcoz
space/0 is considered as string.
Truth value of x is False only when x has NO value
Same program using not logical
operator
x=input("enter data ")
if not x:
print("there is data so truth value of x is False")
else:
print("No data so truth value of x is True")
WAP to input sales from user. If sales >10000 discount on sales should be 10%
else 5%. Display discount, discounted amt and payable amt
i.e. sales-disc.
sales=float(input("enter sales "))
if sales>10000:
disc_amt=sales*0.10
disc="10%"
else:
disc_amt=sales*0.05
disc="5%"
print("your sales ",sales)
print("discount offer :",disc)
print("discount amt :",disc_amt)
print("net payable amt",(sales-disc_amt))
• WAP to input 3 nos from user and print maximum no. Use only if statement
x=float(input("enter no1: "))
y=float(input("enter no1: "))
z=float(input("enter no1: "))
print(max(x,y,z))

Note: max() function takes any no of arguments of type int/float

• WAP to input 3 nos from user and print maximum no.
x=float(input("enter no1: "))
y=float(input("enter no1: "))
z=float(input("enter no1: "))
max=x
if y>max:
max=y
if z>max:
max=z
print("largest no is ",max)
• WAP to input int no. from user and print whether no. is ODD or EVEN
#solution1
no=int(input("enter no1: "))
if no%2==0: #solution3
print(no, "is EVEN number") no=int(input("enter no1: "))
else: if no%2==1:
print(no, "is ODD number") print(no, "is ODD number")
#solution2 else:
no=int(input("enter no1: ")) print(no, "is EVEN number")
if no%2!=0:
print(no, "is ODD number")
else:
print(no, "is EVEN number")

Iteration: means repetition of tasks. Each
time, when the loop-body is executes, is
called and iteration
Python offers two iterations i.e. for-loop and while loop.
I) for-loop: programmer executes this loop when he wants to execute
a loop-body for fixed no. of times. Also called as counting loop.
range( ) function in for –loop
Syntax:
range(lower_limit, upper_limit-1, step_val)
OR
range(upper_limit-1) #default starts from 0, so lower_limit will be 0
#Program1 WAP to print nos 0-9
for a in range(10):
print(a)

[Note here variable a is declared to zero(0) and is called iteration

variable and goes upto upper_limit-1. so here it goes till 9

print(a)

WA for-loop to print nos from 25-50

for a in range(25,51):
print(a)
Using ‘in’ / ‘not in’ operator in loop:
The in operator tests if a given values is contained in a sequence or not.
Returns True if, value exits else returns False. Operators in and not in are
membership operators.
Lets understand this:
3 in [1,2,3,4] o/p is True #b’coz 3 is an element of list

5 in [1,2,3,4] o/p is False #b’coz 5 is not an element of list

‘ ‘ ’ in ‘h’ello’ o/p is True #b’coz h is part of hello string (case sensitive)

5 not in [1,2,3,4] o/p is True WHY?? As 5 is not in list

Syntax:
for <variable_name> in <sequence>:
print()

PROGRAM on list sequence

for a in [1,4,7]: #[1,4,7] is list sequence
NOTE:
print(a)
1.Here, ‘a’ is loop variable.
2.Variable ‘a’ will be assigned
OR each value of list one by one.
3.First value of a is 1, the 4 and
L1=[1,4,7] then 7.
for a in L1: # L1 is list sequence 4.The loop executes 3 time.
print(a)
#PROGRAM on string sequence.
s='apple'
for ind in s:
print(ind) # will print single character on each line

s='apple'
s1='red'
for ind in s+s1: #can join the sequence
print(ind) #will print chars of s and then s1 string on different line

NOTE: for-loop ends when the loop is repeated for the last values of the
sequence.
L=['ram','ravan','sita']
for ind in L: #L is a list sequence of strings. Will print each
print(ind) element on different line

T=('ram','ravan','sita’) #T is tuple

Reverse for-loop
syntax:

Iteration: means repetition of tasks. Each
time, when the loop-body is executes, is
called and iteration
Python offers two iterations i.e. for-loop and while loop
II) while-loop: programmer executes this loop when he wants to
execute a loop-body till the condition is true. While loop is condition
based loop. Also called as conditional loop. The loop that repeats as
long as condition is true is a while loop
