Consider the following code fragment :
while
n = 3
print n == 3(a) What will be the output of above code ?
(b) What is the reason behind this output ?
(a) The given code will generate a syntax error.
(b) The condition of while and colon after that is missing. Thus a syntax error is generated.
Consider the following code fragment :
n = 3
while n == 3
print n
n = n - 1(a) What will be the output of above code?
(b) What is the reason behind this output ?
(c) What change/corrections will you make to above code to make it print some output ?
(a) The given code will generate a syntax error.
(b) The syntax of while statement has a colon after the condition which is missing in the given code. Thus, a syntax error is generated.
(c) The following changes must be made to the code to print some output:
n = 3
while n == 3 :
print (n)
n = n - 1The code given above will generate the following output:
3
Which of the following are invalid conditional statements of Python?
IF and Test if
Reason — IF and Test if are invalid conditional statements of Python.
Which of the following is/are not a valid Python loop ?
iter, repeat
Reason — iter and repeat are not valid Python loop. for and while are valid loop statements.
Which of the following is used to define a block of code (e.g., body of if or body of a loop) in Python ?
indentation
Reason — Indentation is used to define a block of code in Python.
What is the output of following code ?
if None :
print "Up"
else:
print "Down"Down
Reason — Since None is treated as false, the if condition results in false. The block of if will be ignored and the else block will be executed and Down will be printed on the output screen.
What will be the output of following code ?
for i in range(1) :
print i0
Reason — The range(n) function generates a list as [0, 1, 2..., n - 1]. Thus, the range(1) function will generate a list as [0]. Thus the for loop will execute only one time and print 0 on the output terminal.
What will the output of following code ?
for i in range(1, 0) :
print iNo output
Reason — The function range(1, 0) will return return an empty list [] as no number falls in the arithmetic progression beginning with 1 and ending with 0. Thus, the for loop will not execute even once and hence, no output will be generated on the output screen.
What is the output of following code ?
while 3 >= 3 :
print 33 is printed infinitely until program is closed
Reason — Since the given condition (3 >= 3) will always remain true, the while loop will execute indefinitely and keep on printing 3 on the output screen till the program is closed.
What are selection statements ? How are they useful ?
A statement that carries out a set of instructions depending upon a condition's result is known as a selection or conditional statement. Python provides selection statements in the form of if and if-else statements.
These statements enable a program to carry out a set of instructions depending upon a condition's result. For example,
num = 5
if num >= 0 :
print "Positive"
else :
print "Negative"What are looping statements ? How are they useful ?
A statement that allows a set of instructions to be performed repeatedly is known as a looping or iteration statement. Python provides looping statements in the form of for and while loop.
These statements enable a program to perform a set of instructions repeatedly. For example,
num = 3
while num > 0 :
print num
num = num - 1Differentiate between if and if-else statements.
Difference between if and if-else statements in Python:
| S. No. | if | if-else |
|---|---|---|
| 1. | if statement allows us to execute a code block when the condition is True. | if-else statement allows us to execute different code blocks based on whether the condition is True or False. |
| 2. | if statement does nothing in case condition evaluates to False. | if-else statement executes the statements indented below else when the condition is False. |
Differentiate between for and while statements.
Difference between for and while statements in Python:
| S. No. | for | while |
|---|---|---|
| 1. | for loop is used when the number of iterations are known beforehand. | while loop is used when the number of iterations are not fixed and depends on a specific condition. |
| 2. | for loop is used for iterating over a sequence or a range. | while loop is used for repeated execution based on a condition. |
| 3. | Syntax: for <variable> in <sequence> : statements_to_repeat | Syntax: while <logicalexpression> : statements_to_repeat |
Rewrite the following code fragments using for loop
while num > 0 :
print num % 10
num = num/10l = [1]
for x in l:
l.append(x + 1)
if num <= 0:
break
print (num % 10)
num = num/10Rewrite the following code fragments using for loop
i = 100
while (i > 0) :
print i
i -= 3for i in range(100, 0, -3) :
print (i)What is following code doing ? What would it print for input as 3 ?
n = input( "Enter an integer:" )
if n < 1 :
print "invalid value"
else :
for i in range(1, n + 1):
print i * iThe code will print the square of each number from 1 till the number given as input by the user if the input value is greater than 0. Output of the code for input as 3 is shown below:
Enter an integer:3

Rewrite following code fragments using while loops
min = 0
max = num
if num < 0 :
min = num
max = 0
# compute sum of integers from min to max
for i in range(min, max + 1):
sum += imin = 0
max = num
if num < 0 :
min = num
max = 0
# compute sum of integers from min to max
i = min
while i <= max:
sum += i
i += 1Rewrite following code fragments using while loops
for i in range(1, 16) :
if i % 3 == 0 :
print i i = 1
while i < 16:
if i % 3 == 0 :
print (i)
i += 1Write a short program to print the following series :
1 4 7 10 ........... 40.
for i in range(1, 41, 3) :
print(i, end = ' ')1 4 7 10 13 16 19 22 25 28 31 34 37 40
Write a short program to print the following series :
1 -4 7 -10 .......... -40
x = 1
for i in range(1, 41, 3) :
print(i * x, end = ' ')
x *= -11 -4 7 -10 13 -16 19 -22 25 -28 31 -34 37 -40
Predict the output of the following code fragments :
count = 0
while count < 10:
print "Hello"
count += 1 Hello
Hello
Hello
Hello
Hello
Hello
Hello
Hello
Hello

What will be output of the following code if the user enters Principal amount as 20000 and Time as 10 years.
#Considering Python 2.7
P = input("Enter Principal amount:")
T = input("Enter Time:")
if T > 10:
SI = P*T*10/100
else:
SI = P*T*15/100
print("Simple Interest = ", SI) Enter Principal amount:20000
Enter Time:10
Simple Interest = 30000
This Python program calculates the Simple Interest (SI) based on the given Principal amount (P) and Time (T) values. For time value of more than 10 years, the program takes the rate of interest as 10% and for 10 years or less it takes the rate of interest as 15%.
Write a Python script that asks the user to enter a length in centimetres. If the user enters a negative length, the program should tell the user that the entry is invalid. Otherwise, the program should convert the length to inches and print out the result. There are 2.54 centimetres in an inch.
len = int(input("Enter length in cm: "))
if len < 0:
print("Invalid input")
else:
inch = len / 2.54
print(len, "centimetres is equal to", inch, "inches")Enter length in cm: 150
150 centimetres is equal to 59.05511811023622 inches
