3.1 If-Then-Else

Python for Everybody (Audio/PY4E) - September 30, 2016 21:00 - 13 minutes ★★★★★ - 55 ratings
The most basic conditional structure is the if statement where we either execute or skip a segment of code based on the results of a logical expression (i.e. asking a question).

5.3 Patterns for Making Loops

Python for Everybody (Audio/PY4E) - September 30, 2016 15:00 - 8 minutes ★★★★★ - 55 ratings
Loops have a beginning, middle, and end. We look ant how we construct a loop to look at a list of items one at a time so we can compute an overall maximum, minimum or average.
