The "while" statement in python is an important control flow statement that enables repetitive execution of statements.
Syntax of "while" statement in python:
|
while <Conditional Expression>: else: # else suit
|
Semantics of "while" statement in python:
- The "while" statement executes a suit of code as long as the conditional expression mentioned in the while statement evaluates to True.
- The "while" statement terminates its execution when the conditional expression evaluates to False.
- The "else" suit is executed once the while suit is exited
- The "else" suit will not be executed if the "while" has exited as a result of a "break" statement.
- "while" is the only loop control statement that can be controlled by a index variable used as part of its conditional expression.
Example:
index = 0
