Python Coding Challenge - Question with Answer (01231125)

 Explanation:

Initialization

i = 3

The variable i is set to 3.

This will be the starting value for the loop.

While Loop Condition

while i > 1:

The loop will keep running as long as i is greater than 1.

First iteration → i = 3 → condition TRUE

Second iteration → i = 2 → condition TRUE

Third time → i = 1 → condition FALSE → loop stops

Inner For Loop

for j in range(2):

range(2) gives values 0 and 1.

This means the inner loop runs 2 times for each while loop cycle.

Print Statement

print(i - j, end=" ")

This prints the result of i - j each time.

When i = 3:

j = 0 → prints 3

j = 1 → prints 2

When i = 2:

j = 0 → prints 2

j = 1 → prints 1

Decrease i

i -= 1

After each full inner loop, i is decreased by 1.

i = 3 → becomes 2

i = 2 → becomes 1

Now i = 1 → while loop stops.

Final Output

3 2 2 1
