When I put this Python code with input 12, the answer is 0, 6, 18. I don't know how to calculate that and I keep visualizing it as code snippet 2, with the answers 0,0,1,3,6,6,8,12.
How does this loop work?
stop=int(input())
result=0
for a in range(5):
for b in range(4):
result += a * b
print(result)
if result > stop:
break
What I calculate
stop=int(input())
result=0
for a in range(5):
for b in range(4):
result += a * b
print(result)
if result > stop:
break
I'll walk you through your for a in range(5)
loop.
First, a = 0, result = 0.
Next, a = 1, result = 0.
Finally, a = 2, result = 6.
if result > stop
evaluates to true so the loop is broken.
