Times Table - Python Programming Exercise

In this exercise, you will develop a Python program that prompts the user to input two numbers and then displays the results of their addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and remainder. The program will process these operations and display the results in a clear, readable format. This task will help you practice using arithmetic operations in Python and displaying the results with the print function. By completing this exercise, you will deepen your understanding of Python syntax and how to handle multiple mathematical operations in a single program. You will also improve your skills in working with user input and performing dynamic calculations, which are essential for creating interactive Python applications. This foundational knowledge will serve you well as you continue to explore more advanced programming concepts in Python.

Times Table

 Objective

Develop a Python program to ask the user for a number and display its multiplication table, like this:

Please enter a number:
5

The multiplication table for 5 is:
5 x 1 = 5
5 x 2 = 10
5 x 3 = 15
...
5 x 10 = 50

 Example Python Exercise

 Copy Python Code 
# Prompt the user to enter a number
num = int(input("Please enter a number: "))

# Display the multiplication table for the entered number
print(f"\nThe multiplication table for {num} is:")
for i in range(1, 11):
    print(f"{num} x {i} = {num * i}")

 Output

Please enter a number:
5

The multiplication table for 5 is:
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
