𝗗𝗮𝘆 𝟭𝟵: 𝗪𝗵𝗶𝗹𝗲–𝗘𝗹𝘀𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝗣𝘆𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗻 In Python, a while loop can have an else block. The else executes only if the loop ends normally, meaning no break statement was used. Basic example: count = 1 while count <= 3: print(count) count += 1 else: print("Loop finished without break") output: 1 2 3 Loop finished without break Since the condition becomes False naturally, the else block runs. Now see what happens when we use break: count = 1 while count <= 5: if count == 3: break print(count) count += 1 else: print("Loop finished without break") output: 1 2 3 Here, the loop stops at 3 using break. So the else block does not execute. Real-world example: Searching for a number numbers = [10, 20, 30] i = 0 while i < len(numbers): if numbers[i] == 25: print("Found") break i += 1 else: print("Not Found") output:Not Found If the value is not found, the loop completes fully and else runs. Why use while-else? *Cleaner search logic *No need for extra flag variables *Better readability Important: else runs only when the loop ends without break. It’s a small concept, but understanding it shows deeper control over program flow. #Python #Programming #LearnPython #CodingJourney
