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 Access Dictionary Key-Value Data in Python

Image
Use for-loop to read dictionary data in python. Here's an example of reading dictionary data. It's helpful to use in real projects. Python program to read dictionary data yearly_revenue = {    2017 : 1000000,    2018 : 1200000,    2019 : 1250000,    2020 : 1100000,    2021 : 1300000,  } total_income = 0 for year_id in yearly_revenue.keys() :   total_income+=yearly_revenue[year_id]   print(year_id, yearly_revenue[year_id]) print(total_income) print(total_income/len(yearly_revenue)) Output 2017 1000000 2018 1200000 2019 1250000 2020 1100000 2021 1300000 5850000 1170000.0 ** Process exited - Return Code: 0 ** Press Enter to exit the terminal Explanation The input is dictionary data. The total revenue sums up for each year. Notably, the critical point is using the dictionary keys method. References Python in-depth and sample programs
