Variable
-
They are all basic types
Correct Answer
A. They are all basic typesExplanation
The given answer is incorrect. The correct answer is "variable". In Python, "variable" is not a basic type. Instead, it is a placeholder used to store values of different types such as bool, float, and list. The other options mentioned (bool, float, and list) are indeed basic types in Python.Rate this question:

5.6. Programming with style
Readability is very important to programmers, since in practice programs are read and modified far more often than they are written. All the code examples in this book will be consistent with the Python Enhancement Proposal 8 (PEP 8), a style guide developed by the Python community.
We’ll have more to say about style as our programs become more complex, but a few pointers will be helpful already:
use 4 spaces for indentation
imports should go at the top of the file
separate function definitions with two blank lines
keep function definitions together
keep top level statements, including function calls, together at the bottom of the programRate this question:

Correct Answer
A. X, y and zExplanation
Random access memory (RAM) is volatile, meaning that its contents are lost when power is turned off or interrupted. A hard drive is an example of non-volatile memory, as the data stored on it remains even when power is removed. Data on non-volatile storage, such as a hard drive, is stored in named locations called files. Therefore, the statements x, y, and z are all true.Rate this question:

-
3 5
-
3 3
-
5 3
-
5 5
-
None of the above
Correct Answer
A. 3 5Explanation
The output of the program is "3 5" because the value of "a" is initially set to 5. Then, the value of "b" is assigned the value of "a", which is 5. Finally, the value of "a" is reassigned to 3. Therefore, when we print the values of "a" and "b", we get "3 5".Rate this question:

What is the best explanation for the following code (assume x is an int)?x = x + 1
-
This code always returns False.
-
This code always returns True
-
The code has a syntax error.
-
The code has a semantic error.
-
The variable x is incremented by 1.
Correct Answer
A. This code always returns False.Explanation
The given code `x = x + 1` does not involve any conditional statements or comparisons. Therefore, it does not return a boolean value like True or False. Instead, it increments the value of the variable `x` by 1. Hence, the answer "This code always returns False" is incorrect. The correct explanation is that the code increments the value of `x` by 1.Rate this question:

-

-
5 4 3 2 1 0
-
0 1 2 3 4 5
Correct Answer
A. 1 2 3 4 5Explanation
The code defines a function called countdown that takes an argument n. Inside the function, there is a while loop that continues as long as n is greater than or equal to 0. Inside the loop, it prints the value of n and then subtracts 1 from it. After the loop, it prints the final value of n.
When the countdown function is called with an argument of 5, it will print the numbers 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, and then the final value of n which is 0. Therefore, the output of the code is "1 2 3 4 5 0".Rate this question:

-
5 16 8 4 2 1
-
5 2 7 3
-
16 8 4 2
-
None Of the above
Correct Answer
A. 5 16 8 4 2Explanation
The code defines a function called collatz_sequence that takes a number n as input. It then enters a while loop that continues until n is equal to 1. Inside the loop, it prints the current value of n. If n is divisible by 2, it updates n to be n divided by 2. Otherwise, it updates n to be n multiplied by 3 and then added by 1.
When collatz_sequence(5) is called, the output will be 5 16 8 4 2. This is because 5 is not divisible by 2, so it is updated to be 5 multiplied by 3 and then added by 1, resulting in 16. 16 is then divided by 2 to give 8, and so on until n becomes 1.Rate this question:

-
False False
-
True False
-
False True
-
True True
-
None of the above
Correct Answer
A. False FalseExplanation
The code defines a function called "test_while" that takes an argument "n". Inside the function, there is a while loop that iterates as long as "i" (initialized as "n") is greater than 0. In each iteration, the remainder of dividing "i" by 10 is calculated and stored in the variable "remainder". If "remainder" is equal to 0, the variable "num_zeros" is incremented by 1. If "num_zeros" becomes equal to 3, the function returns True. After each iteration, "i" is divided by 10. Finally, the code prints the result of calling the "test_while" function with the arguments 123456 and 1002. Since there are no zeros in either number, the output is False False.Rate this question:

Consider the following function definition:def read_value_type(prompt='Enter a value> ', convert=float)val= input(prompt)return convert(val) Which of the following are valid calls to read_value_type? x val = read_value_type () y val read_value_type(prompt='Enter a float> ') zval read_value_type(convert=bool, prompt='Enter a boolean> ')
-
X
-
X and y
-

-
Y and z
-

Correct Answer
A. XExplanation
The function definition allows for two optional parameters: prompt and convert. In the given answer, only the first call to read_value_type, "x", is a valid call because it does not provide any arguments and uses the default values for both prompt and convert. The other calls, "y" and "z", provide arguments for the prompt parameter but do not provide an argument for the convert parameter, which would result in an error.Rate this question:

-
Gvar has not changed 1var has changed
-
Gvar has changed 1var has not changed
-
None of the above
Correct Answer
A. Gvar has not changed 1var has not changedExplanation
The output of the code is "gvar has not changed" and "1var has not changed" because the global_variable_func() function does not modify the values of the variables gvar and 1var. The function only changes the value of the local variable var. Therefore, when the print statements are executed, the values of gvar and 1var remain the same as before the function call.Rate this question:

-

-
None of the above.
Correct Answer
A. The ball appears on the gameCanvas at the position (109, 109).Explanation
The code provided creates a ball on a canvas and uses a while loop to continuously update the position of the ball. The initial position of the ball is set to (10, 10), and it moves across and down the canvas with a step size of 1 in both the x and y directions. The loop runs for 100 iterations, and each time it updates the position of the ball by adding the step size to the current position. Therefore, the ball slowly moves across and down the canvas until it comes to rest at the position (109, 109).Rate this question:

In the context of programming, abstraction is:
-
A Python function that converts a value into a variable.
-
The process of revealing the details of a function.
-
The process of making functions less general and more specific.
-
A data structure for associating keys with values.
-
None of the above
Correct Answer
A. A Python function that converts a value into a variable.Explanation
Abstraction in programming refers to the process of simplifying complex systems by breaking them down into smaller, more manageable parts. It involves hiding unnecessary details and only exposing the essential features. The given answer, "A Python function that converts a value into a variable," aligns with this concept of abstraction. By using a function in Python, one can encapsulate a set of instructions or operations and convert a value into a variable, which can then be used in the program. This abstraction helps in organizing and structuring the code, making it easier to understand and maintain.Rate this question:

Create a string which is at least 5 characters wide, is right justified, and contains the string n.
-
None of the above
Correct Answer
A. Create a string which is at most 5 characters wide, is left justified, and contains the number n.Explanation
The string format conversion specification '%-5d' % n creates a string that is at most 5 characters wide, is left justified, and contains the number n. The '-' sign indicates left justification, and the '5' specifies the minimum width of the string. Since it is at most 5 characters wide, the string can be less than 5 characters if the number n is smaller.Rate this question:
