A function can only return a value, while a method cannot.

Methods are defined outside of classes, while functions are defined inside classes.

A function is independent, while a method is associated with an object.

A method is a type of function that cannot take parameters.

Use a list to return values.

Return a single value only.

Return values through global variables.

Use a tuple to return multiple values from a function.

Using a debugger tool

Using print statements for debugging

Writing unit tests

Ignoring error messages

Insert print statements to display variable values and program flow at key points in the code.

Insert print statements only at the beginning of the code.

Remove all print statements to avoid clutter in the output.

Use print statements to write comments in the code.

To optimize code performance during execution.

To verify assumptions and catch errors during debugging.

To automatically fix errors in the code.

To enhance the user interface of the application.

A for loop iterates a known number of times, while a while loop continues until a condition is false.

A for loop runs indefinitely, while a while loop stops after a set number of iterations.

A for loop is used for conditional statements, while a while loop is used for iteration.

A for loop requires a condition, while a while loop does not need any conditions.

You can use range() to generate random numbers in a for loop.

You can use range() to create a list of strings.

You can use range() in a for loop to iterate over a sequence of numbers.

range() is used to define the number of iterations in a while loop.

for condition: code to execute

repeat condition: code to execute

do while condition: code to execute

while condition: # code to execute

The break statement continues to the next loop iteration.

The break statement terminates the loop execution.

The break statement skips the current iteration of the loop.

The break statement pauses the loop execution.

The continue statement is used to exit the loop completely.

You can use the continue statement in a loop to skip the current iteration and continue with the next one.

You can use the continue statement to restart the loop from the beginning.

The continue statement ends the loop immediately.
