笔记29 笨办法学python练习38 列表前的for与while简略比较

这个习题38，在讲述列表操作之前，特地提到了两个条件操作符号，一个是while，另一个是for。这两个仍然是让我感到困惑的，先温习温习，再来看列表吧。
While是一个有点难以理解的概念，它和for一样，也被称为循环指令。但这个循环的条件是，循环语句中的布尔值为true。它和for的区别何在呢？
相同之处大概在于循环，循环的对象常常就是一个列表中陈列的对象，所以这两个指令都和列表关系密切。还是把书中的例题稍加改造，在本文中先对比一下它们，然后概括出两者间的简单区别吧。
使用for-loop的习题ex38.0.py

在这里插入代码片cities = ['guangzhou', 'wuhan', 'shenzhen', 'nanjing', 'shenyang']
persons = ['zhang', 'wang', 'liu', 'li', 'chen']
pairs = ['guangzhou', 'one', 'wuhan', 'second', 'shenzhen', 'third', 'nanjing', 'forth']

# this first kind for-loop goes through a city list
for city in cities:
    print(f"This is a large city {cities}:")

# same as above for loop persons
for name in persons:
    print(f"A name of somebody: {persons}")

# also we can go through mixed lists too, one to one
# notice we have to use {} since we don't know what's in it
for i in pairs:
    print(f"I get {i}")

# we can also build lists, first start with an empty one
empty_elements = []

# then use the range function to do 5 to 10 counts
for i in range(5, 10):
    print(f"Adding {i} to the list.")
    # append is a function that lists Understand
    empty_elements.append(i)

# now we can print them out too
for i in empty_elements:
    print(f"Element was: {i}")

使用while的习题ex38.1.py

在这里插入代码片zhang = input("> ")

if zhang == "0":
    print("begin to while")

i = 1
numbers = []


while i < 6:
    print(f"At the top i is {i}")
    numbers.append(i)

    i = i + 1
    print("Numbers now: ", numbers)
    print(f"At the bottom i is {i}")


print("The numbers: ")

for num in numbers:
    print(num)

运行结果

在这里插入代码片PS C:\Users\lenovo\1pythonw> python ex38.1.py
> 0
begin to while
At the top i is 1
Numbers now:  [1]
At the bottom i is 2
At the top i is 2
Numbers now:  [1, 2]
At the bottom i is 3
At the top i is 3
Numbers now:  [1, 2, 3]
At the bottom i is 4
At the top i is 4
Numbers now:  [1, 2, 3, 4]
At the bottom i is 5
At the top i is 5
Numbers now:  [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
At the bottom i is 6
The numbers:

单纯留下while指令形成ex38.2.py，也运行顺利。
练习ex38.2.py

在这里插入代码片zhang = input("> ")

if zhang == "0":
    print("begin to while")

i = 1
numbers = []

while i < 6:
    print(f"At the top i is {i}")
    numbers.append(i)

    i = i + 1
    print("Numbers now: ", numbers)
    print(f"At the bottom i is {i}")


print("The numbers: ")

两者的简单比较：
这两种循环都是把列表中的元素用同样的操作进行一次，但如同在练习33中所看到的，while循环有可能无法终止，一直进行，for好像没有这个问题。而且就我的理解，你把for循环可以并列列出多个也容易操作运行，但如果while的指令似乎就不能够做到这样。
