Types o f Statement in Python

▪ Statements are the instructions given to

computer to perform any task. Task may be
simple calculation, checking the condition or
repeating action.
▪ Python supports 3types of statement:
 Empty statement
 Simple statement
 Compound statement
Empty Statement

▪ It is the simplest statement i.e. a statement

which does nothing. It is written by using
keyword –pass
▪ Whenever python encountered pass it does
nothing and moves to next statement in flow
of control
▪ Required where syntax of python required
presence of a statement but where the logic
of program does. More detail will be explored
with loop.
Simple Statement

▪ Any single executable statement in Python is

simple statement. Fore.g.
▪ Name = input(“enteryour name “)
▪ print(name)
Compound Statement

▪ It represent group of statement executed as

unit. The compound statement of python are
writtenin a specific pattern:

Compound_Statement_Header :
indented_body containing multiple
simple or compoundstatement
Compound Statement has:

▪ Header which begins with keyword/function

and ends with colon(:)
▪ A body contains of one or more python
statements each indented inside the header
line. All statement in the body or under any
header must be at the same level of
indentation.
Statement Flow Control

▪ In python program statement may execute in

a sequence, selectively or iteratively. Python
programming support 3 Control Flow
statements:
1. Sequence
2. Selection
3. Iteration
Sequence
▪ It means python statements are executed
one after another i.e. from the first statement
to last statement without any jump.

Statement 1

Statement 2
Selection :Itmeans executionofstatement will depend uponthecondition.If
the condition is true then it will execute Action 1 otherwise Action 2. In Python we
use if to perform selection

Action 1

True
Condition ? Statement 1 Statement 2

False

Statement 1
Action 2

Statement 2
Selection

▪ We apply Decision making or selection in our

real life also like if age is 18 or above person
can vote otherwise not. If pass in every
subject is final exam student is eligible for
promotion.
▪ You can think of more real life examples.
Iteration -Looping

▪ Iteration means repeating of statement

depending upon the condition. Till the time a
condition is True statements are repeated again
and again. Iteration construct is also known as
Looping construct
▪ In real world we are using Looping construct like
learning table of any number we multiply same
number from 1 to 10, Washing clothes using
washing machine till the time is over, our school
hours starts from assembly to last period, etc.
Iteration -Looping

False
Condition ? Exit from iteration

True

Statement 1
Loop Body
Python supports for and
Action 2

Statement 2 while statement for

Looping construct
Error and Exceptions

▪ Error means ‘bugs’ in a program, i.e. either

program is not running or running but not
producing the expectedoutput.
▪ Exceptions are those errors which appears
during the execution time of program i.e. there
are some exceptional condition in which
program is notsuccessfully executing.
▪ Types of Error:
 Syntax Error
 Semantic Error
 Logical Error
 Runtime Error
Syntax Error
▪ It occurs before the execution of program.
▪ It occurs due to violation of programming language rule
for e.g. missing parenthesis, incorrect use of operators
etc.

Syntax error due to

missing parenthesis
Semantic Error

▪ occurs when statements are not meaningful. For

e.g. ‘Sita Plays Piono’ is syntactically and
semantically correct but ‘Piono plays Sita’ is
syntactically correct but semantically incorrect.
Take another exampe : X*Y=Z is semantically
incorrect because expression cant comes before
the assignment operator;
Logical Error

▪ occurs when program is executing successfully but not

producing the correct output. It is one of the most
difficult error to trace and debug. It may occurs by use or
wrong operators like use of ‘*’ in place of ‘+’ Or wring
C=B/Ain place of C=A/B etc.
With input 20 as n1
and 10 as n1,
expected resultwas
2 but output is 0.5,
because expression
is n2/n1 not n1/n2
Runtime Error

▪ It occurs during the execution of program.

▪ Itis also known as exception.
▪ It occurs due to some wrong operation, input, etc. the
most common runtime error is “divide by zero”
Exception handling ( t r y & except)

▪ try : this block is used for writing those statements in

which exception mayoccurs.
▪ except : this block is used for handling the exception
occurs in try block i.e. decides what to do with exception.
i f Statement o f Python
▪ ‘if’ statement of python is used to execute
statements based on condition. It tests the
condition and if the condition is true it
perform certain action, we can also provide
action for false situation.
▪ if statement in Python is of many forms:
 ifwithout false statement
 if with else
 if with elif
 Nested if
Simple “ i f ”
▪ In the simplest form if statement in Python
checks the condition and execute the
statement if the condition is true and do
nothing if the condition is false.
▪ Syntax: All statement
belonging to if
if condition: must have same
indentation level
Statement1
Statements ….
* * if statement is compound statement having
header and a body containing intended
statement.
Points to remember with “ i f ”

▪ It must contain valid condition which

evaluates to eitherTrue or False
▪ Condition must followed by Colon (:) , it is
mandatory
▪ Statement inside if must be at same
indentation level.

if with else

▪ if with else is used to test the condition and if

the condition is True it perform certain
action and alternate course of action if the
condition is false.
▪ Syntax:
if condition:
Statements
else:
Statements

if with elif
▪ if with elif is used where multiple chain of condition is to
be checked. Each elif must be followed by condition: and
then statement for it. After every elif we can give else
which will be executed if all the condition evaluates to
false

if condition:
Statements
elif condition:
Statements
elif condition:
Statements
else:
Statement

Nested i f
▪ In this type of “if” we put if within another if as a
statement of it. Mostly used in a situation where we
want different else for each condition. Syntax:
if condition1:
if condition2:
statements
else:
statements
elif condition3:
statements
else:
statements

else:

print("Numbers in ascending order = ",min,mid,max)
Storing Condition
▪ In a program if our condition is complex and it
is repetitive then we can store the condition
in a name and then use the named condition
in if statement. It makes program more
readable.
▪ For e.g.
▪ x_is_less=y>=x<=z
▪ y_is_less=x>=y<=z
▪ Even = num%2==0
