Assertions and Reasons

In the following questions, a statement of assertion (A) is followed by a statement of reason
(R). Choose the correct option:
 (a) Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.
 (b) Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A.
 (c) A is true, but R is false (or partly true).
 (d) A is false (or partly true), but R is true.
 (e) Both A and R are false (or not fully true).
1. Assertion: Mutability means that the values can be changed in place.
o Reason: Immutable types mean that their values cannot be changed in place.
2. Assertion: For evaluating a mixed type expression, Python carries out implicit type
conversion.
o Reason: In implicit type conversion, all operands are converted up to the type of the
largest operand.
3. Assertion: Type conversion can be implicit or explicit.
o Reason: Only Python interpreter can force the type conversion and not the
programmer.
4. Assertion: Syntax errors are the violations of grammatical rules of a programming language.
o Reason: The syntax errors can only be checked by the Python interpreter.
5. Assertion: The logical errors are the mistakes in analysis of a problem.
o Reason: Logical errors are the violations of syntax.
6. Assertion: The runtime errors occur during the execution of a program.
o Reason: The runtime errors may occur due to the unavailability of a resource
required for the program execution.
7. Assertion: Exceptions may occur even if a program is free from all types of errors.
o Reason: Irregular or unexpected situations arise during runtime which are outside
the programmer’s control.
Solved Problems
1. What are data types? What are Python's built-in core data types?
o Solution: To represent various types of real-life data, programming languages
provide ways and facilities to handle these, which are known as data types.
o Python’s built-in core data types belong to:
 Numbers (integer, floating-point, complex numbers, Booleans)
 String
 List
 Tuple
 Dictionary
2. Which data types of Python handle Numbers?
o Solution: Python provides the following data types to handle numbers:
 (i) Integers
 (ii) Booleans
 (iii) Floating-point numbers
 (iv) Complex numbers
3. Why is Boolean considered a subtype of integers?
o Solution: Boolean values 1 and 0 are treated internally as integers 1 and 0, i.e., True
and False are associated with integer values 1 and 0 respectively. When 1 and 0 are
converted, they evaluate as True and False.
4. Identify the data types of the values given below:
o Values: 3, 13.0, "13", 13, "13", 2+0j, 3, (3, 13), [3, 13]
o Solution:
 3 → integer
 13.0 → Floating-point
 "13" → String
 13 → integer
 "13" → String
 2+0j → complex
 (3, 13) → Tuple

 What do you understand by the term 'immutable'?

 Solution: Immutable means unchangeable. In Python, immutable types are those whose
values cannot be changed in place. Whenever one assigns a new value to a variable referring
to an immutable type, the variable's reference is changed, and the previous value is left
unchanged. For example:

python

Copy code

x=3

x=5

o Here, the value 3 is untouched, and x is made to refer to a new value 5.

 What will be the output of the following?

python

Copy code

print(len(str(17//4)))

print(len(str(17/4)))

 Solution:

o The first line outputs 1 because:

python

Copy code

len(str(17//4)) = len(str(4)) = len("4") = 1

o The second line outputs 3 because:

python

Copy code

len(str(17/4)) = len(str(4.0)) = len("4.0") = 3

 What will be the output produced by these?

 (a) 12/4

 (b) 14/14

 (c) 14%4

 (d) 14/0.4
  (e) 14//0.4

 (f) 14.0%4

 Solution: The correct answer is:

o (a) 3.0

o (b) 1

o (c) 2

o (d) 3.5

o (e) 30.0

o (f) 2.0

 Given that variable CK is bound to string "Raman" (i.e., CK = "Raman"), what will be the output
produced by the following two statements if the input given is "Raman"? Why?

python

Copy code

DK = input("Enter name: ")

 (a) DK == CK

 (b) DK is CK

 Solution:

o The output produced will be:

 (a) True

 (b) False

o Explanation: The reason is that both DK and CK variables are bound to identical
strings, "Raman". However, input strings are always bound to fresh memory even if
they have identical content to other existing strings in memory. Therefore:

 DK == CK produces True as the strings are identical.

 DK is CK produces False as they are bound to different memory addresses.

 What will be the output of the following code? Explain the reason behind the output of every
line:

python

Copy code

5 < 5 or 10

5 < 10 or 5

5 < (10 or 5)
5 < (5 or 10)

 Solution:

o Output:

 10

 True

 True

 False

o Explanation:

 5 < 5 or 10 evaluates to False or 10, which returns 10.

 5 < 10 or 5 evaluates to True or 5, which returns True.

 5 < (10 or 5) evaluates to 5 < 10, which is True.

 5 < (5 or 10) evaluates to 5 < 5, which is False.

Program Correction

21. Problem: The program is giving a weird result of "0.50.50.50.50.50.50..........". Correct it so

that it gives the result in which the probability value (input as 0.5) times 150.

 Solution:

python

Copy code

probability = float(input("Type a number between 0 and 1: "))

print("Out of 150 tries, the odds are that only", int(probability * 150), "will succeed.")

 Hint: Ensure the correct datatype for probability.
