C++ vs Python implementation [closed]












-2















My C++ is functioning as expected but the equivalent Python code hangs in an infinite loop. Help!



C++



#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
for(int i=0;i<4;++i){

int j=0;

while(i!=j){
++j;
cout<<j<<endl;
}
}
}


Python



for i in range(4):

j = 0

while i != j:

++j

print(j)

    Please don't get into the habit of doing line-by-line translations from one language like C++ to another, and vice-versa. Learn the language as if the other language doesn't exist.

  • Well, I did try += as well but it didn't work in the original implementation for some reason. At least now I know why python doesn't use increment operator haha.

++j is not a thing in Python. You want j += 1.

  • @TejasPandey why don't you read the interpreter error? Googling for things like python "++" syntax error would give you a lot of answers immediately: Python integer incrementing with ++, in python, ++x is correct syntax. What does "++x" mean?, Does Python support ++?...

In order to avoid ambiguity/confusion, our Benevolent Dictator For Life thought to not allow ++ or -- into the Python ecosystem. That means you are in an infinite loop because ++j does not do what you believe it to do.

  • Well my understanding now is that all variables are immutable so you can't do ++. They are immutable because of how python handles datatypes. x = 5 x++ makes sense x = 'blah' x++ doesn't make sense.
