Python: Built-in Functions vs. For & If Loops – 5 Programs Explained

Image
Python’s built-in functions make coding fast and efficient. But understanding how they work under the hood is crucial to mastering Python. This post shows five Python tasks, each implemented in two ways: Using built-in functions Using for loops and if statements ✅ 1. Sum of a List ✅ Using Built-in Function: numbers = [ 10 , 20 , 30 , 40 ] total = sum (numbers) print ( "Sum:" , total) 🔁 Using For Loop: numbers = [ 10 , 20 , 30 , 40 ] total = 0 for num in numbers: total += num print ( "Sum:" , total) ✅ 2. Find Maximum Value ✅ Using Built-in Function: values = [ 3 , 18 , 7 , 24 , 11 ] maximum = max (values) print ( "Max:" , maximum) 🔁 Using For and If: values = [ 3 , 18 , 7 , 24 , 11 ] maximum = values[ 0 ] for val in values: if val > maximum: maximum = val print ( "Max:" , maximum) ✅ 3. Count Vowels in a String ✅ Using Built-ins: text = "hello world" vowel_count = sum ( 1 for ch in text if ch i...

How to Use Arguments in Real Python Programs

Here are four types of exclusive arguments in python. The arguments are passers to functions. These are Required arguments, Keyword arguments, Default arguments and Variable-length arguments. Here're 4 Important Arguments in Python The arguments supply input to functions . Because these are various types, herein you will know the details and usage of those types. Argument#1: Required arguments Positional arguments are known as  required arguments  and are passed to a function in the correct order. The arguments in the function call should match the number in the function definition. Sample program: def cal(a,b):     """program to calculate sum of 2 numbers"""     sum=a+b     return sum a=int(input("enter 1st number")) b=int(input("enter 2nd number")) print(cal(a,b)) Output enter 1st number 10 enter 2nd number 22 32 ** Process exited - Return Code: 0 ** Press Enter to exit terminal Argument#2: Keyword arguments A default argument is...
