if statement

if 9 > 5:
   print(" 9 is great than 5")

print(" End of Program")

Two important things

1. A colon":" is required after the condition
2. Ident with at least one space

x = 1
y = 2
if x > y:
   print(" x is larger")
else:
   print(" x is not larger")

Important: The colon after the key word else!

number = 3
if number == 1:
   print("one")
elif num == 2:
   print("two")
elif num == 3:
   print("three")
else:
   print("something different")

while loop

i=1
while i<=5:
   i = i + 1

print(i)

infinite loops

i = 0
while True:
   print(i)
   if i >= 6
      print("leave the loop"
      break

print("Done...")

continue will end a block in a loop. It will force the program counter to jump back to the next test in the while condition

i = 0
while i<6:
   i += 1
   if i == 3:
      print(" Will skip rest of block...")
      continue
   print(i)

for Loop

days =["Monday", " Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", " Friday", "Saturday", "Sunday"]
for day in days:
   print(day +"!")

for loops can iterate over strings

str = "this is a string"
count=0
for x in str:
   if(x == "t"):
      count += 1

print(count)

break and continue can be used in the for block
