Python Coding Challange - Question With Answer(01130325)

 

Step-by-Step Execution:

1. Initialization:

   number = 0

2. First Iteration (Loop Start - number = 0):

   • number += 4 → number = 4
   • if number == 7: → False, so continue does not execute.
   • print(4)

3. Second Iteration (Loop Start - number = 4):

   • number += 4 → number = 8
   • if number == 7: → False, so continue does not execute.
   print(8)

4. Third Iteration (Loop Start - number = 8):

   • Condition while number < 8: fails because number is no longer less than 8.
   • The loop stops.

Final Output:

4
8

Understanding the continue Statement:

• The continue statement skips the rest of the current iteration and moves to the next loop cycle.
• However, number == 7 never occurs in this program because the values of number are 4 and 8.
• So, the continue statement never runs and has no effect in this case.

Key Observations:

1. The loop increments number by 4 in each iteration.
2. The condition number == 7 never happens.
3. The loop stops when number reaches 8.
