Task 2:

The following program uses a for loop to calculate and print the age and year of the
user for the next 5 years.
1 #Ask the user for their age
2 age = input ("Enter your age:")
3 #Convert this to an integer
4 age = int(age)
5 #Ask the user for the current year
6 year = input ("Enter the current year:")
7 #Convert this to an integer
8 year = int(year)

10 for num in range(1, 6, 1):

11 age = age + 1
12 year = year + 1
13 print("For year ", year, " the age is ", age)

Task 3: 5 marks
The program in Task 2 can also be written using a while loop.

1 #Ask the user for their age

2 age = input ("Enter your age:")
3 #Convert this to an integer
4 age = int(age)
5 #Ask the user for their year
6 year = input ("Enter the current year:")
7 #Convert this to an integer
8 year = int(year)
9 count = 1
10 #While loop starts
11 while():
12 age + age + 1
13 year = year + 1;
14 print "For year ", year, " the age is ", age
15 count : count + 1
