The document discusses learning to write loops in Python and encourages comparing loop structures across different programming languages like Java, Fortran, and BASIC. It also prompts research into the Swift programming language, including its developer and intended use. Additionally, it suggests investigating the programming language and code length of a frequently used application.

1. 5. In class we have learned how to write loops in Python. As it turns out every programming
language provides the ability to write loops. Use the web to find out how to write a loop in Java,
FORTRAN, and BASIC. What common features do you observe in the three different types of
loops? 5. Use your web-surfing capabilities to find out about the programming language called
"Swift." Who is developing the language? What is the intended use of the language? 7. Pick a
program or application that you use all the time. Find out what language it was written in and
how many lines of code the program consists of.
