Summing Two Numeric Inputs

This script accepts user input for two numbers, converts them to floating-point values, calculates the total, and displays the result.

# Add two numbers provided by the user
first_input = input("Enter the first numeric value: ")
second_input = input("Enter the second numeric value: ")

# Perform addition after type casting
result = float(first_input) + float(second_input)

# Output the formatted result
print(f"The sum of {first_input} and {second_input} is: {result}")

Generating Random Integers

The random module is utilized here to generate a pseudo-random integer within a specified range. This example prints a number between 1 and 10.

import random

# Generate a random integer between 1 and 10 (inclusive)
random_value = random.randint(1, 10)

print(f"Generated random number: {random_value}")

Identifying Prime Numbers in a Range

The following logic iterates through a user-defined interval to find and print prime numbers. It checks for factors greater than one to determine primality.

# Get range limits from the user
lower_limit = int(input("Enter the lower bound of the range: "))
upper_limit = int(input("Enter the upper bound of the range: "))

print(f"Prime numbers between {lower_limit} and {upper_limit}:")

for num in range(lower_limit, upper_limit + 1):
    # Prime numbers are strictly greater than 1
    if num > 1:
        for i in range(2, int(num ** 0.5) + 1):
            if (num % i) == 0:
                break
        else:
            print(num)

Determining Days in a Month

Using the built-in calendar module, this snippet retrieves data for a specific month and year. The output is a tuple containing the weekday of the first day and the total number of days.

import calendar

# Get calendar data for October 2023
# Returns (weekday_of_first_day, number_of_days)
month_info = calendar.monthrange(2023, 10)

print(month_info)
# Output interpretation: (6, 31) implies the first day is Sunday (6) and there are 31 days.

Resetting a List

This example demonstrates how to remove all elements from a list using the .clear() method, resulting in an empty list.

sample_collection = [10, 50, 25, 100]
print("List before clearing:", sample_collection)

# Empty the list
sample_collection.clear()

print("List after clearing:", sample_collection)
