Question 5

Question 2Which of the following is syntactically correct text?"This is great!"'she shouted 'HELLO' loudly'"Goodbye'"This "course" is good"

Accepted Answer

"This is great!"Reason — The "This is great!" text uses double quotes (") to properly enclose the entire string. In Python, strings enclosed in either single quotes (') or double quotes (") are valid, but the entire string must be enclosed in the same type of quote. The other options have mismatched quotes, which cause syntax errors in Python.

Question 6

Question 4Identify the correct print() statement:print(Hello)print("Hello")print('Hello")print("Hello')

Accepted Answer

print("Hello")Reason — In Python, when using the print() function, strings must be enclosed in matching pairs of either single (') or double quotes ("). Therefore, the correct statement is print("Hello").

Question 7

Question 10Single-line comments in Python begin with ............... symbol.%"'''#

Accepted Answer

Question 9

Question 6Differentiate between displaying and printing method in Python.

Accepted Answer

Printing in Python refers to using the print() function to output information to the console. The print() function takes one or more arguments, converts each argument to a string (if necessary), and displays them as text. On the other hand, displaying can be a more general term that encompasses presenting information or output in various forms, not limited to just text output in the console.

Question 10

Question 7Briefly explain the salient features of Python.

Accepted Answer

The salient features of Python are as follows:Python is an interpreted, interactive, directly executed language with a pre-compiled code. This means that it is processed at runtime by the interpreter and we need not compile our program before executing it.It is a loosely type object-oriented programming language with a few keywords, simple English-like structure and is easy to learn.It is a free, open-source and portable language having a large repository of libraries.It takes less time to develop as Python programs are typically 3 to 5 times shorter than the equivalent programming languages. This is because of its built-in, high-level data types and its dynamic typing.It is extensible/extendable and highly efficient as there is no wastage of time in declaring the types of variables or arguments.It supports GUI (Graphical User Interface) and garbage collection (better memory management).It is easily compatible with other languages like C, C++, Core Java etc.Python is used for both scientific and non-scientific programming.

Question 11

Question 9What are the advantages of Python programming language?

Accepted Answer

Advantages of Python programming language are:Easy to Use — Python is compact, programmer-friendly and very easy to use object oriented language with very simple syntax rules.Expressive Language — Python is an expressive language, it takes fewer lines of codes to represent the same syntax.Interpreted Language — Python is an interpreted language, not a compiled language. It makes Python an easy-to-debug language and thus suitable for beginners to advanced users.Completeness — Python has a rich standard library that provides modules for most types of required functionality like emails, web-pages, databases, GUI development, network connections, etc.Cross-platform Language — Python can run equally well on variety of platforms — Windows, Linux/UNIX, Macintosh, supercomputers, smart phones, etc.Free and Open Source — Python language is freely available along with its source-code.Variety of Usage/Applications — Python has evolved into a powerful, complete and useful language over these years. These days Python is being used in many diverse fields/applications, some of which are Scripting, Web Applications, Game development, Database Applications, System Administrations, Rapid Prototyping, GUI Programs.

Question 12

Question 12Write some limitations of Python.

Accepted Answer

Some limitations of Python programming language are:Not the Fastest Language — As Python is an interpreted language so its execution-times are not that fast compared to some compiled languages.Lesser Libraries than C, Java, Perl — Library collection of C, Java, Perl is better than Python.Not strong on Type-Binding — Python interpreter is not very strong on catching 'Type-Mismatch' issues.Not easily convertible — Translating Python programs to other languages is difficult due to its lack of syntax.

Question 13

Question 13What is the difference between Script mode and Interactive mode in Python?

Accepted Answer

In script mode, we write a Python program in a file and execute it to display the output and in interactive mode, we use the Python prompt '>>>' to start typing commands and see immediate output.
