In Python, strings are…
- A.
Str objects
- B.
Char arrays
- C.
Changeable
- D.
None
Correct Answer
A. Str objectsExplanation
In Python, strings are represented as str objects. This means that strings in Python are treated as a specific type of object with its own set of methods and properties. The str object allows for various operations and manipulations on strings, such as concatenation, slicing, and formatting. This is different from char arrays, which are used in some other programming languages to represent strings as arrays of individual characters. Additionally, strings in Python are immutable, meaning they cannot be changed once they are created.Rate this question:

Python strings have a property called “immutability." What does this mean?
- A.
You can update a string in Python with concatenation.
- B.
Strings in Python can be represented as arrays of char.
- C.
Strings can’t be divided by numbers.
- D.
Strings in Python can’t be changed.
Correct Answer
D. Strings in Python can’t be changed.Explanation
The correct answer is that strings in Python can't be changed. This means that once a string is created, its value cannot be modified. Any operation that appears to modify a string actually creates a new string with the desired modifications. This property of immutability ensures that strings are safe to use in various operations without worrying about unintended changes.Rate this question:

If you want to transform a list of strings input_list into a single string with a comma between each item, which of the following would you give as the input to join()?
- A.
','
- B.
Input_list
- C.
Str
- D.
String
Correct Answer
B. Input_listExplanation
The correct answer is "input_list" because the join() method is used to concatenate elements of a list into a single string, with the specified separator (in this case, a comma). Therefore, the input_list is the list of strings that we want to join together with commas between each item.Rate this question:

Which of the following mathematical operators can be used to concatenate strings:
- A.
/
- B.
*
- C.
-
- D.
=
Correct Answer
B. *Explanation
The mathematical operator "*" can be used to concatenate strings. In programming languages, such as Python, the "*" operator is used to repeat a string a certain number of times or to concatenate multiple copies of a string together. For example, in Python, "hello" * 3 would result in "hellohellohello", which is the concatenation of three copies of the string "hello". Therefore, the "*" operator is used for string concatenation.Rate this question:

Assume x and y are assigned as follows: x=5, y=-5. What is the effect of this statement: x, y = (y, x)[::-1]
- A.
Both x and y are 5
- B.
The values of x and y are swapped.
- C.
The values of x and y are unchanged.
- D.
Both x and y are -5
Correct Answer
C. The values of x and y are unchanged.Explanation
The statement "x, y = (y, x)[::-1]" swaps the values of x and y. However, since the assignment is done within a list slicing operation [::-1], the original order of the values is reversed and then assigned back to x and y. In this case, x=5 and y=-5, so after the statement is executed, x will be -5 and y will be 5. Therefore, the correct answer is "The values of x and y are swapped."Rate this question:

Which collection is ordered, changeable, and allows duplicate members?
- A.
TUPLE
- B.
SET
- C.
LIST
- D.
DICTIONARY
Correct Answer
C. LISTExplanation
A list is an ordered collection in which the elements can be changed or modified. It allows duplicate members, meaning that the same value can appear multiple times in the list. This makes it a suitable choice for situations where maintaining the order of elements and allowing duplicates is necessary. Tuples, on the other hand, are ordered and allow duplicates but are immutable, meaning that their values cannot be changed once they are assigned. Sets are unordered and do not allow duplicates. Dictionaries are also unordered but consist of key-value pairs.Rate this question:

C. · >>> print(a[-5:-3]) ['bar', 'baz']
D. · >>> max(a[2:4] + ['grault']) 'qux'Explanation
The correct answers are:
- `print(a[4::-2])` prints the elements of the list `a` starting from index 4 and moving backwards by 2 steps. This results in the output `['quux', 'baz', 'foo']`.
- `print(a[-5:-3])` prints the elements of the list `a` starting from index -5 and ending at index -3. This results in the output `['bar', 'baz']`.
- `max(a[2:4] + ['grault'])` finds the maximum value among the elements of the list `a` from index 2 to index 4, along with the additional element `'grault'`. The maximum value is `'qux'`.Rate this question:

LIST
- D.
DICTIONARY
Correct Answer
D. DICTIONARYExplanation
A dictionary is a collection that is unordered, changeable, and does not allow duplicates. In Python, a dictionary is a data structure that stores key-value pairs. It is unordered because the items in a dictionary are not stored in any particular order. It is changeable because you can add, remove, or modify items in a dictionary. And it does not allow duplicates because each key in a dictionary must be unique. Therefore, a dictionary is the correct answer for a collection that possesses these characteristics.Rate this question:

A. TUPLEExplanation
A tuple is a collection in Python that is ordered and unchangeable. This means that the elements in a tuple are stored in a specific order, and once a tuple is created, its elements cannot be modified. Tuples are typically used to store related pieces of data together, such as coordinates or personal information. Unlike lists, tuples are immutable, meaning they cannot be altered after creation. Therefore, a tuple fits the description of a collection that is ordered and unchangeable.Rate this question:

Correct Answer(s)
B. A[2:3]=[ ]
C. A.remove(3)
E. Del a[2]Explanation
The correct answer is a[2:3]=[ ], a.remove(3), del a[2].
- a[2:3]=[ ]: This statement uses slicing to remove the middle element 3 from the list. It selects the element at index 2 and removes it.
- a.remove(3): This statement uses the remove() method to remove the first occurrence of the element 3 from the list.
- del a[2]: This statement uses the del keyword to delete the element at index 2 from the list.Rate this question:

Which statement is used to stop a loop?
- A.
Break
- B.
Exit
- C.

Stop
Correct Answer
A. BreakExplanation
The statement "break" is used to stop a loop. When the "break" statement is encountered within a loop, it immediately terminates the loop and the control is transferred to the next statement after the loop. This allows the program to exit the loop prematurely based on a certain condition, without executing the remaining iterations.Rate this question:

List a is defined as follows: a = ['a', 'b', 'c'] Which of the following statements adds 'd' and 'e' to the end of a, so that it then equals ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e']:
- A.
A.extend(['d','e'])
- B.
A.append(['d','e'])
- C.
A += ['d','e']
- D.
A[len(a):] = ['d','e']
- E.
A += 'de'
- F.
A[-1:] = ['d','e']
Correct Answer(s)
A. A.extend(['d','e'])
C. A += ['d','e']
D. A[len(a):] = ['d','e']
E. A += 'de'Explanation
The correct answer is a.extend(['d','e']), a += ['d','e'], a[len(a):] = ['d','e'], a += 'de'.
These options all add 'd' and 'e' to the end of the list 'a' so that it becomes ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e'].
- a.extend(['d','e']) adds the elements 'd' and 'e' to the end of list 'a' using the extend() method.
- a += ['d','e'] is shorthand for a = a + ['d','e'], which concatenates list 'a' with the list ['d','e'] and assigns the result back to 'a'.
- a[len(a):] = ['d','e'] uses list slicing to add the elements 'd' and 'e' to the end of list 'a'.
- a += 'de' concatenates the string 'de' to list 'a', resulting in ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e'].Rate this question:

Which of the following is not a complex number?
- A.
K = 2 + 3l
- B.
K = 2 + 3j
- C.
K=complex(2,3)
- D.
K = 2 + 3J
Correct Answer
A. K = 2 + 3lExplanation
The given expression "k = 2 + 3l" is not a complex number because the variable "l" is not a standard notation for representing the imaginary unit. The standard notation for the imaginary unit is "i" or "j". Therefore, "k = 2 + 3l" does not fit the form of a complex number and is not a valid option.Rate this question:

What does ~~~~5 evaluate to?
- A.
+5
- B.
-11
- C.
-5
- D.
+11
Correct Answer
A. +5Explanation
The given expression ~~~~5 evaluates to +5. The tilde (~) operator in many programming languages is used to perform a bitwise negation operation. In this case, the expression ~~5 is equivalent to 5, as the first tilde negates the second tilde, resulting in the original value. Therefore, the additional two tildes have no effect, and the final result is +5.Rate this question:

Given a string s= “Welcome” , which of the following code is incorrect?
- A.
Print s[0]
- B.
S[1]='r'
- C.
Print s.lower()
- D.
Fprint s.strip()
Correct Answer
B. S[1]='r'Explanation
The code s[1]='r' is incorrect because strings in Python are immutable, meaning they cannot be changed. Therefore, trying to assign a new value to a specific index in a string will result in an error.Rate this question:

Which one is NOT a legal variable name?
- A.
_myvar
- B.
My-var
- C.
Myvar
- D.
My_var
Correct Answer
B. My-varExplanation
The variable name "my-var" is not a legal variable name because it contains a hyphen, which is not allowed in variable names. Variable names can only contain letters, numbers, and underscores, and they cannot start with a number. Therefore, "my-var" does not meet the requirements of a legal variable name.Rate this question:

How do you create a variable with the numeric value 5?
- A.
X=5
- B.
X=int(5)
- C.
Both the other answers are correct
- D.
None is correct
Correct Answer
C. Both the other answers are correctExplanation
Both options "x=5" and "x=int(5)" are valid ways to create a variable with the numeric value 5. The first option assigns the value directly to the variable, while the second option converts the value to an integer before assigning it to the variable. Therefore, both options are correct ways to create a variable with the numeric value 5.Rate this question:
