DEEP DIVE INTO
Control flow in Python is a fundamental concept that governs the order in which statements are executed within a program. It allows you to make decisions, repeat actions, and handle exceptions.
Let's dive deeper into the various aspects of control flow in Python:
By default, Python executes statements sequentially, one after the other, from top to bottom in a script or program.
Syntax:
pythonstatement1
statement2
statement3
# Statements are executed in this order
Example:
print('Hello World')
print('I love â¤ï¸ programming')
print('Python is awesome ðŸ‘')
Conditional statements, primarily implemented using if
, elif
, and else
, allow you to execute different blocks of code based on specified conditions.
Syntax:
pythonif condition1:
# Code to execute if condition1 is True
elif condition2:
# Code to execute if condition1 is False and condition2 is True
else:
# Code to execute if both condition1 and condition2 are False
Example:
pythonx = 10
if x > 5:
print("x is greater than 5")
elif x == 5:
print("x is equal to 5")
else:
print("x is less than 5")
In this example, the code uses if
, elif
, and else
to make decisions based on the value of the variable x.
You will notice there are no curly braces ({}) in if, elif, or else sections, which you will find generally in other languages.
