EXAM BIS JANUARY 2023

QUESTI ON 1

1. a, b = 10,5
2. c = a/b

What is the value assigned to variable ‘c’ after executing the code?

0. ‘2’
0. 2
0. 2.0
0. 5
0. None of the answers above are correct

-> float divisions so 10/5 is a float or 2.0

QUESTION 2

number = input(“Please provide a random number: ”)

if int(number) > 3
print(number, “is greater than 3.”)
elif int(number) < 3:
print(Number, “is less than 3.”)
elif int(number) = 3:
print(number, “is equal to 3.”

how many errors occur in the Python code given above?

0. 3
0. 4
0. 5
0. 6
0. 7
solution:
number = input(“Please provide a random number: ”)
if int(number) > 3:
print(number, “is greater than 3.”)
elif int(number) < 3:
print(Number, “is less than 3.”)
elif int(number) = 3:
print(number, “is equal to 3.”)

QUESTION 3

a = 50
b = ‘10’ 2 values in the string (1 and 0) ‘ ‘ means string
c = a // len(b) 50//2
for I in range (2) ← the 2 means you have to loop it twice
c %= 9
print (c)

ok so after we calculated 50//2 which is 25, we look at the for-loop

the for loop tells us that it will get repeated twice, in this case it doesn’t matter but i will
still show you so you understand for tomorrow

the for loop says that c%=9

so we know c = 25 and we know we have to divide with 9. the question is: what is the
remainder? 25/9 = 18/9 with remainder 7
-> answer of our modulo = 7 , do we do it until its under 9? why twice ahhhh i see it

we loop it a second time now (though there is no point)

the c now has value 7
7%= 9 = 0 with remainder 7, the remainder will therefore always be 7, doesn’t matter how
many times you loop it

what is the output of the code above?

A. 25
B. 7
C. 5
D. 2
E. None of the answers above are correct
QUESTION 4

print (bool (“ “) )

what is the output of the code above?

A. 1
[B.] “False ”
B.[C.] False
C.[D.] “True”
D.[E.] True

QUESTION 5

which python data structure or structures is/are mutable and contain duplicate values?
A. set
B. list
C. tuple
D. set and list

set and tuple

QUESTION 6

First_number = 3 -> integer

Last_number = “14” -> string
print (“The result is “ + ____ (1) First_number ____ (2) + ____ (3) Last_number ____ (4) +
“.”)

if you change the first one to string, the integer, you can leave number 3 blank as it’s
already a string and then you leave 4 blank too
that’s correct

i am just thinking, you either change one to string and leave the other be, or you rewrite
the second one as string too but it won’t make a big difference as it already is a string
exactly ohhhhhh no no no pardon i see the answers now theres a ) as an answer

i thought it was only str or itr or blank

first space is 100% string cause it’s a sum of strings and the first number is written as an
integer so we have to convert it to string ok ok
print (“The result is “ + _str(___ First_number ___this?_ + ____ Last_number __))__ + “.”)

so you got this one?

i am just questioning at the moment, i think 1 is also possible as you take the string of an
integer, you don’t close the string yet and then you rewrite the last number as an integer
so as final result you get the sum of 3 string and the middle string is a string of the sum of
2 integers so i would say A and C are both correct i dont think so since last number is
ready a strin question 7 is easy ahn ok ok, then !8
choose what should be filled out in the empty spaces for the code to give the following
output when executed: “The result is 314.”
A. (1) str(
(2) should be left blank
(3) int(
(4) ))
B. (1) str(
(2) )
(3) str(
(4) )
C. (1) str(
(2) )
(3) should be left blank
(4) should be left blank
D. (1) str(
(2) )
(3) int(
(4) )
 E. 2 of the above answers are correct

ok ok i explain
the general rule is you cannot take the sum of a string and an integer, they all have to
have the same form so integer + integer or string + string or float + float
scroll up if you understood, stay when you are lsot

QUESTION 7

Answer = “False”
if Answer:
print (“The answer is correct.”)

what is the output of the code above?

A. The answer is correct.
B. False
C. There is no output
D. None
E. Error
ah no just beweetn brakent
i explain very shortly
just replace the answer = with cows
so answer = “cows”
cows example, wait, cause the false is there to confuse you
if answer;
print(“ the answer is correct”)
-> answer is not an empty string so the if statement is correct so we just print the “the
answer is correct”

that’s the logic behind it

“false” is a non-empty string so the answer is always correct and the if can get printed
an if statements states that if a certain thing it’s true, a certain result will get printed
a non empty string means the string is not empty but has a value (a letter, number, etc)
okoko got it kinda i just think it printed (“”) since its the last thing it asked if it wanted to
print “False” it would be print(Answer) ? hmmmm the thing is if the string was empty, i
think it would have given an error but you got a point
just look at the print statement in this case cause it doesn’t point back to the false thing
just know an empty string is always an error or a false boolean

uh huh exactly im so smart. whats an empty string example?

bool(“”) is empty FALSE (represents 0)

bool(“ “) is not empty cause there is a space this would be true? or false? TRUE (represents
1)
ok your business is finished
let’s do another exercise?
just in an exercise
answer = “”
print (answer) = error?
i think it will be error cause it’s an empty string and not written as a boolean

QUESTION 8

list_A = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10]

list_B = (list_A [9: -8: -2])
print (list_B [2])

what is the output of the code above?

A. 8
B. 5
C. 6
D. 7
E. Error
you need help? he is dead
ok wait, it’s too much to type but i hope you understand ehhh

so with the numbers of A you make a new list. you start with the 9th index (number 10) and
count back with jumps of 2 to index -8. the minus sign means you stop before the index so
number 2 in this case is not included.

so it would look like this

list A: [ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10]
index: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

8 indices back starting from index 9 = index 1 (number 2).

number 2 is not included as the it states we go to index -8 so it’s exclusive (stops before the
element)
if we take steps of 2 indices:
list_A = [ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10]
index: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

so list_B looks like [ 10, 8, 6, 4]

-> we start with 10 cause the syntax of the second line is start:stop:step
we have to print the second index of list_B
so list_B= [ 10, 8, 6, 4]
index: 0 1 2 3

output = 6

You basically have 3 steps

because the starting index is 10, you reverse the whole list and start with 10

second step: you move 8 indexes to know the ending index (ending index is number 2, or
index 1). BUT the ending index is exclusive as the number is negative

step 3: to define our final list_b, we look at the steps. we have to take jumps of 2 indices,
starting at 10 so 10 - 8 - 6 - 4
-> 2 NOT includes as 2 is the ending index that is EXCLUSIVE

so or list_B is [10, 8, 6, 4]
-> the print statement asks the 2 index, the 2 index equals the third number so the answer is
6
list_B = (list_A [9: -8: -2])

QUESTION 9

def TV_show (name):

if name in [“David Schwimmer”, “Courteney Cox”, “Matthew Perry”]:
return “Friends”
if name in [“Bryan Cranston”, “Aaron Paul”]:

return “La Casa de Papel”
if name in [“Courteney Cox”, “Busy Philipps”]:
return “Cougar Town”

TV_show (“Pedro Alonso”)

print(TV_show(“Courteney Cox’))

what is the output of the code above?

A. La Casa de Papel
Friends
Cougar Town

Cougar Town
C. La Casa de Papel
Friends
D. Friends
E. La Casa de Papel
