Counting using while loops-Python (Using Pycharm Community edition)
Ask the user for 3 inputs. Tell them NOT to use ZERO
1) the user inputs the a STARTING number "User, what is the starting number of the range?" -- they enter 1
2) the user inputs an ENDING number for the loop. User, what is the ending number of the range?" --- they enter 10
3) the user inputs the INCREMENT for the counter (increments of 1, 3, 4, 6, etc).
User, what is the increment of the range?" --- they enter 2 (Go back and look at the previous work on RANGE) Using inputs, you will create FOUR while loops. Each loop will look similar in style to this :
while a
print (a)
a = a + ?
Loop 1 and Loop 2 will use addition and multiplication to increase the count
Loop 3 and Loop 4 will use subtraction and division to decrease the count
Use the Starting number and Ending number and increments for ADDING / SUBTRACTING
Reverse the Starting number and the Ending number for SUBTRACTION / DIVISION
Example:
What is your starting number? 1
What is your ending number? 10
What is the increment you are going by? 2
addition and multiplication - starting number and ending number
ADDITION a = a + 2 | MULTIPLICATION a = a * 2
subtraction and division - reverse
The ENDING number MUST BE the STARTING number.
The STARTING number MUST be the ENDING number.
SUBTRACTION a = a - 2 | DIVISION a = a / 2
IDEA : you could set each counter to be a different letter... a = 0 , b = 0, c = 0, d = 0.
Disclaimer - some of the operations do not have to work depending on when numbers are inputted for the start, end and increment
