-Welcome this tutorial on loops in Python. 
-
-{{{ show the outline slide }}}
-
-In this tutorial, we shall look at ``while`` and ``for`` loops. We
-shall then look at the ``break``, ``continue`` and ``pass`` keywords
-and how to use them. 
-
-{{{ switch to the ipython terminal }}}
-
-We have an ``ipython`` terminal, that we shall use through out this
-tutorial. 
-
-We shall first begin with the ``while`` loop. The ``while`` loop is
-used for repeated execution as long as a condition is ``True``. 
-
-Let us print the squares of all the odd numbers less than 10, using
-the ``while`` loop.
-
-::
-
-  i = 1
-
-  while i<10:
-      print i*i
-      i += 2
-
-This loop prints the squares of the odd numbers below 10. 
-
-The ``while`` loop, repeatedly checks if the condition is true and
-executes the block of code within the loop, if it is. As with any
-other block in Python, the code within the ``while`` block is indented
-to the right by 4 spaces. 
-
-E%% %% Pause the video here and write a ``while`` loop to print the
-squares of all the even numbers below 10. Then, return to the video.
-
-::
-
-  i = 2
-
-  while i<10:
-      print i*i
-      i += 2
-
-Let us now solve the same problem of printing the squares of all odd
-numbers less than 10, using the ``for`` loop. As we know, the ``for``
-loop iterates over a list or any other sequential data type. So, we
-use the ``range`` function to get a list of odd numbers below 10, and
-then iterate over it and print the required stuff. 
-
-::
-
-  for n in range(1, 10, 2):
-      print n*n
-
-E%% %% Pause the video here and write a ``for`` loop to print the
-squares of all the even numbers below 10. Then, return to the video. 
-
-::
-
-  for n in range(2, 10, 2):
-      print n*n
-
-Let us now look at how to use the keywords, ``pass``, ``break`` and
-``continue``.
-
-As we already know, ``pass`` is just a syntactic filler. It is used
-for the sake of completion of blocks, that do not have any code within
-them. 
-
-::
-
-  for n in range(2, 10, 2):
-      pass
-
-``break`` is used to break out of the innermost loop. The ``while``
-loop to print the squares of all the odd numbers below 10, can be
-modified using the ``break`` statement, as follows
-::
-
-  i = 1
-
-  while True:
-      print i*i
-      i += 2
-      if i<10:
-          break
-
-``continue`` is used to skip execution of the rest of the loop on this
-iteration and continue to the end of this iteration. 
-
-Say, we wish to print the squares of all the odd numbers below 10,
-which are not multiples of 3, we would modify the for loop as follows.
-::
-
-  for n in range(1, 10, 2):
-      if n%3 == 0:
-          continue      
-      print n*n
-  
-
-E%% %%Pause the video here and using the ``continue`` keyword modify
-the ``for`` loop to print the squares of even numbers below 10, to
-print the squares of only multiples of 4. (Do not modify the range
-function call.) Then, resume the video. 
-::
-
-  for n in range(2, 10, 2):
-      if n%4:
-          continue      
-      print n*n
-
-That brings us to the end of this tutorial. In this tutorial, we have
-learnt about looping structures in Python and the use of the keywords
-``pass``, ``break`` and ``continue``. 
-
-Thank You!
