Reason of the output - himanshub7 - Apr-28-2020
The output of this program is
no
but I think it should be yes
because if condition is true when loop iterate last time(3rd time)
I know I am not right, please help me with the reason of "no"
def fun(a,k):
for x in a:
if x==k:
return 'yes'
else:
return 'no'
print(fun([6,8,5],5))

It is because you only iterate over the first value, then return when x = 6. If you want it to iterate over all the values, then you need to stay in the loop until a match is found.
def fun(a,k):
for x in a:
if x==k:
return 'yes'
return 'no'
print(fun([6,8,5],5))
