In this tutorial, we will be learning how to write a Python program that displays the multiplication table of a given number.
The multiplication table is a basic mathematical concept that is used in various fields, including computer science, engineering, and economics.
To get started, let’s define what a multiplication table is.
A multiplication table is a table that shows the results of multiplying a number by other numbers.
For example, the multiplication table of 3 would show the results of multiplying 3 by the numbers 1 to 10.
Now, let’s move on to the Python program.
We will write a program that takes an input from the user, which is the number whose multiplication table is to be displayed.
Then, we will use a loop to calculate the product of the number and the numbers 1 to 10, and display the results in a table format.
Here is the code:
# Get user input for the number num = int(input("Enter a number: ")) # Print multiplication table for i in range(1, 11): print(num, "x", i, "=", num*i)
In the first line of the code, we use the input()
function to get an integer input from the user and store it in the variable num
.
In the next line, we use a for
loop to iterate through the numbers 1 to 10.
Inside the loop, we use the print()
function to display the multiplication table.
The print()
function takes four arguments: the number entered by the user (num
), the multiplication symbol (x
), the number being multiplied (i
), and the product of num
and i
(num*i
).
When we run the program and enter a number, we will get the multiplication table of that number displayed on the screen.
For example, if we enter 5, the program will display:
Enter a number: 5 5 x 1 = 5 5 x 2 = 10 5 x 3 = 15 5 x 4 = 20 5 x 5 = 25 5 x 6 = 30 5 x 7 = 35 5 x 8 = 40 5 x 9 = 45 5 x 10 = 50
In conclusion, we have learned how to write a Python program that displays the multiplication table of a given number.
This program can be useful for various applications, including educational tools, statistical analysis, and data visualization.
