Pass Statement In Python

In this article, we will discuss the pass statement in Python.

Scenario

Consider a scenario where you have created a utility that reads the data from a different data source like Excel, JSON, XML, etc., and import it into the database. You have implemented the logic for JSON and XML, but you are planning to implement Excel logic in the future.

To accomplish that, you write an if condition and add a placeholder. Here, the pass statement comes into the picture.

Purpose

The pass statement creates a placeholder for future code.

Example

option = input("Please enter your data source")

if(option == "EXCEL"):
    pass
