bookLists and Loops: Managing Multiple Students

When managing a classroom, you often work with groups of students rather than just one at a time. Python's for-loop is a powerful tool that helps you process lists of students efficiently. With a for-loop, you can quickly perform actions like printing all student names, checking attendance, or calculating totals—without having to repeat the same code for each student. This approach saves time and keeps your code clean and easy to understand.

# List of student names students = ["Alice", "Ben", "Carlos", "Dina"] # Loop through the list and print each name for name in students: print(name)

Loops are essential for automating repetitive classroom tasks. Imagine having to check attendance for every student manually—this would be time-consuming and error-prone. By using a loop, you can go through each student's record automatically, making processes like marking attendance or sending reminders much more efficient. Loops let you focus on teaching, while Python handles the repetition.

# List of attendance counts for each student attendance_counts = [18, 20, 17, 19] # Calculate the total attendance by summing up each student's count total_attendance = 0 for count in attendance_counts: total_attendance += count print("Total attendance for the class:", total_attendance)
