In Python, a count-controlled loop is a type of loop structure that iterates a specific number of times based on a counter variable.

• The counter variable keeps track of the number of iterations and is incremented or decremented after each iteration.
• The loop continues until the counter variable reaches a certain value or meets a specific condition.
• The 'for' loop is commonly used for count-controlled loops. It allows you to iterate over a sequence of elements or execute a block of code a fixed number of times.

For example code:

for i in range(1, 6):  # Loop from 1 to 5 (inclusive)
    print("Iteration:", i)

Output of the code:

Iteration: 1
Iteration: 2
Iteration: 3
Iteration: 4
Iteration: 5

Explanation of the code:

• Here, the loop will execute five times because the range(1, 6) function generates a sequence of numbers from 1 to 5. The loop variable i takes the value of each number in the sequence, and the print statement displays the current iteration number.
• You can modify the loop to perform different actions based on the iteration count or use the counter variable in conditionals to control the loop's behavior.
• The Count-controlled loops are useful when you need to repeat a block of code a specific number of times, such as when processing a fixed-size collection or performing a task iteratively.
