Explore the while Loop in Python
Sometimes, you need your code to execute repeatedly as long as a specific condition is true. You can accomplish this using a while loop, which follows this structure:
while condition:
# While `condition` is `True` execute this
To use a while loop effectively, start by initializing a counter variable and update it within the loop to avoid an infinite loop.
1234567# Assign starting number (counter) i = 1 # While loop will print all the numbers to 10 while i < 10: print(i, end=' ') i = i + 1 # Increasing variable
The print() function outputs each result on a new line by default. To separate outputs with a space, you can use end=' ' in the function.
The loop's logic includes the statement i = i + 1 to ensure the condition i < 10 eventually becomes False. Without it, the loop would run indefinitely.
