Question

Read the following code:

x = 1
(x < 26):
print(x)
x = x + 1

There is an error in the while loop. What should be fixed?

Add quotation marks around the relational operator
Begin the statement with the proper keyword to start the loop
Change the parentheses around the test condition to quotation marks
Change the colon to a semicolon at the end of the statement

Answer 1

Am I right with D?

Answer 2

@vocaloid

Answer 3

python uses colons for loops, not semi-colons, so it wouldn't be D

however, if you want to use a while loop, you need the word "while" in front of the condition

Answer 4

hmm so C?

Answer 5

not quite, for python you use parentheses around the condition not quotation marks

think about the other example: it didn't just say (n < 5), it said while (n < 5)

"while" is the keyword to start the loop, so choice B

Answer 6

oohh ok thank you
