You can use the simple version of the range(n) function
to write any loop in Python.
But there are some programs
that can be written more succinctly by taking advantage
of the range function's optional arguments. In this activity you
will explore what those parameters are and how they can be used.
Details
-
Fill in the following table. For each row of the table, write a Python program that evaluates the expression on the left. Put the result in the column on the right.
Execute Result for i in range(6): print(i)for i in range(1, 6): print(i, end=' ')for i in range(1, 6, 2): print(i, end=', ') -
Given the above results, explain how the
rangefunction works. Include an explanation of the function's arguments.What does the
end=' 'argument do for print statements?Consider the following output of a Python program. Write the for loop statement that will produce the specified output.
Results For Loop 1 2 3 4 5 6
3 6 9 12 15 18 21
0 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40
0 -1 -2 -3 -4 -5
5 4 3 2 1 0
Write a for loop that prints the even numbers between 100 and 200, inclusive.
