Question

You recently graduated college and you are applying for a programming job that requires the understanding of loops in Python. The manager you are interviewing with has asked you to take an assessment to prove your programming knowledge. Below are the requirements for the programming skills test.

In Python, create a program that meets the following requirements:

Take two integers from the user.

Save the lower number as x.

Save the largest integer as y.

Write a loop that counts from x to y by twos.

Print out the values of that loop using the Print function in Python.

Write another loop that adds x and y, and saves the value as Z.

Print out the values of Z using the Print function in Python.

Provide the code and take a screenshot of the output, then paste the screenshot(s) into a Microsoft® Word document.

Answer 1

Dear Student ,

As per the requirement submitted above , kindly find the below solution.

Here a new python program with name "main.py" is created, which contains following code.

main.py :

#asking user number 1
number1=int(input("Enter number 1 : "))
#asking number 2
number2=int(input("Enter number 2 : "))
#declaring variables
x=0
y=0
#checking number
if(number1>number2):
x=number2 #set value of x
y=number1 #set value of y
else:
x=number1
y=number2
count=0 #variable to store count
for i in range(x,y+1,2):
print(i,end=' ')#print value of i
count=count+1 #increment count
print("Count : ",count) #print count
for i in range(x,y+1,1):
z=i+y #add values of x and y
print(z,end=' ') #print value of z

Screen for Indentation :

main.py 1 #asking user number 1 number1-int (input ("Enter number 1 ")) 3 #asking number 2 4 number2-int (input ("Enter number 2 5 #decLaring variables 2 ")) X-0 7 y-0 8 #checking number if (number1 number2): x-number2 #set value of x y-number1 #set value of y 10 11 12 else: X-number1 13 y-number2 count-0 #variable to store count 14 15 16 for i in range(x,y+1, 2): print (i,end- ) # print value of i 17 count-count+1 #increment count 18 19 print("Count ",count) #print count for i in range (x, y+1,1): z-i+y #add values of x and y print (z, end ) #print value of z 20 21 22

======================================================

Output : Compile and Run above program to get the screen as shown below

Screen 1 :main.py

input Enter number 1 10 Enter number 2 2 2 4 6 8 10 Count 5 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 . Program fini shed with exit code 0 Press ENTER to exit console.
