For example, 2 ** 3 would be 8. 2 / 50 Which of the following is not a valid Python data type? Character Float String Integer Explanation: Python has Integer, Float, and String as built-in data types. "Character" is not a distinct data type; single characters are represented as strings of length 1. 3 / 50 How do you get the length of a list named my_list? len(my_list) my_list.size() length(my_list) my_list.length() Explanation: The built-in len() function is used to get the number of items in an object, including lists, strings, and tuples. 4 / 50 How do you open a file in Python for writing? open("file.txt", "x") open("file.txt", "a") open("file.txt", "w") open("file.txt", "r") Explanation: The open() function is used to open files. The "w" mode opens a file for writing. If the file exists, its content is truncated (emptied); if it doesn't exist, a new file is created. 5 / 50 What is the purpose of the break statement in loops? To restart the loop To continue to the next iteration To skip the current iteration To terminate the loop entirely Explanation: The break statement immediately terminates the loop (either for or while) and transfers control to the statement immediately following the loop. 6 / 50 Which of the following is a mutable data type in Python? Integer Tuple String List Explanation: Mutable data types can be changed after they are created. Lists are mutable, meaning you can add, remove, or modify elements. Tuples and Strings are immutable. 7 / 50 What is the output of print(len("Hello"))? 4 Error 6 5 Explanation: The len() function returns the number of items in an object. For a string, it returns the number of characters. "Hello" has 5 characters. 8 / 50 What is the default value of arguments in a Python function if not specified? "" None False 0 Explanation: If a function argument is not provided a value when the function is called, and no default value is specified in the function definition, Python assigns None to that argument. 9 / 50 What is the purpose of the elif keyword in Python? To start a new if condition To check multiple conditions sequentially To define an else block To handle errors Explanation: elif (short for "else if") is used in if...elif...else statements to check multiple conditions sequentially after an initial if condition. 10 / 50 What is the output of print(3 // 2)? 1 1.5 2 0 Explanation: The // operator performs floor division (integer division), which rounds the result down to the nearest whole number. 3/2=1.5, and floor division results in 1. 11 / 50 Which of the following is used to define a block of code in Python? Curly braces {} Parentheses () Indentation Square brackets [] Explanation: Python uses indentation (whitespace) to define blocks of code (e.g., within if statements, loops, functions, and classes), unlike other languages that use curly braces. 12 / 50 What is the output of print(bool(0))? 0 None False True Explanation: In Python, 0 (integer zero) is considered "falsy." When converted to a boolean, it evaluates to False. Other falsy values include None, empty strings, empty lists, empty tuples, and empty dictionaries. 13 / 50 How do you add an element to the end of a list in Python? my_list.append(element) my_list.push(element) my_list.insert(element) my_list.add(element) Explanation: The append() method is used to add a single element to the end of a list. 14 / 50 Which module in Python is commonly used for working with regular expressions? math os re sys Explanation: The re module provides regular expression operations. 15 / 50 What does the pass statement do in Python? It does nothing It skips the current iteration It raises an error It exits the program Explanation: The pass statement is a null operation; nothing happens when it is executed. It's often used as a placeholder where a statement is syntactically required but you don't want any code to execute. 16 / 50 What is the output of 2 + 3 * 4? 10 20 14 24 Explanation: Python follows the order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS). Multiplication is performed before addition: 3∗4=12, then 2+12=14. 17 / 50 What is the purpose of pip in Python? A Python integrated development environment A code debugger A package installer for Python A text editor Explanation: pip is the package installer for Python. It allows you to install and manage additional libraries and dependencies that are not part of the standard Python library. 18 / 50 Which of the following is the correct way to import a module named math? use math import math include math require math Explanation: The import keyword is used to bring modules into the current namespace. 19 / 50 What is the scope of a variable defined inside a function? Local scope Global scope Module scope Class scope Explanation: Variables defined inside a function have local scope, meaning they are only accessible within that function. 20 / 50 What is the output of print("Python"[::-1])? PythoN nohtyP Python Error Explanation: [::-1] is a slicing technique that reverses a sequence (like a string or list). It creates a reversed copy of the string. 21 / 50 Which of the following is a valid way to create an empty set in Python? my_set = set() my_set = [] my_set = () my_set = {} Explanation: To create an empty set, you must use the set() constructor. {} creates an empty dictionary, not an empty set. 22 / 50 What is the output of print("Hello" + " " + "World")? HelloWorld Hello World Hello world Hello+World Explanation: The + operator performs string concatenation in Python. It joins the strings together. 23 / 50 How do you find the maximum value in a list named numbers? numbers.max() maximum(numbers) numbers.get_max() max(numbers) Explanation: The built-in max() function returns the largest item in an iterable or the largest of two or more arguments. 24 / 50 How do you convert an integer to a string in Python? str(integer_var) convert_str(integer_var) int_to_str(integer_var) to_string(integer_var) Explanation: The str() built-in function is used to convert values to their string representation. 25 / 50 What is the output of [1, 2, 3] * 2? [1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3] [2, 4, 6] Error [1, 2, 3] Explanation: When a list is multiplied by an integer, it creates a new list by concatenating the original list with itself that many times. 26 / 50 What is the output of print(type(lambda: None))? <class 'function'> Error None Object Explanation: lambda creates an anonymous function. The type() of a lambda function is <class 'function'>. 27 / 50 Which of the following is NOT a valid variable name in Python? myVar my_var_2 2my_var _my_var Explanation: Variable names in Python cannot start with a number. They can contain letters, numbers, and underscores, but must start with a letter or an underscore. 28 / 50 Which method is used to remove an item from a dictionary by its key? dict.remove(key) dict.pop(key) dict.discard(key) dict.delete(key) Explanation: The pop() method is used to remove a key-value pair from a dictionary by specifying the key. It also returns the value associated with the removed key. 29 / 50 What is the correct way to create a list in Python? my_list = (1, 2, 3) my_list = [1, 2, 3] my_list = {1, 2, 3} my_list = Explanation: Lists in Python are created using square brackets []. Tuples use parentheses (), and sets/dictionaries use curly braces {}. 30 / 50 How do you remove duplicate elements from a list while preserving order? Using a for loop and if condition to check for duplicates list.unique() list.remove_duplicates() Using set() and then converting back to list Explanation: While converting to a set() and back to a list can remove duplicates, it doesn't guarantee order preservation. The most common way to remove duplicates while preserving order is to iterate through the list and add elements to a new list only if they haven't been seen before. 31 / 50 How do you create a dictionary in Python? my_dict = (key: value) my_dict = {key: value} my_dict = [key: value] my_dict = Explanation: Dictionaries in Python are created using curly braces {} with key-value pairs separated by colons. 32 / 50 Which keyword is used to define a function in Python? def define function func Explanation: The def keyword is used to define a new function in Python. 33 / 50 What does the dir() function do without arguments? Returns a list of local variables Returns a list of built-in functions Returns a list of attributes of the current scope Returns a list of available modules Explanation: When dir() is called without arguments, it returns the list of names in the current local scope. 34 / 50 Which of the following is used for multiline comments in Python? ## This is a multiline comment ## /* This is a multiline comment */ ''' This is a multiline comment ''' // This is a multiline comment // Explanation: Python does not have specific syntax for multiline comments like /* ... */ in other languages. Instead, triple quotes (''' or """) are often used. If they are not assigned to a variable, they act as string literals and are effectively ignored by the interpreter, serving as multiline comments. 35 / 50 Which of the following is an immutable data type? Dictionary Tuple Set List Explanation: Immutable data types cannot be changed after they are created. Tuples are immutable; lists, dictionaries, and sets are mutable. 36 / 50 What is the purpose of the else block with a for loop? It executes if the loop does not run It defines an alternative loop It executes if the loop is interrupted It executes after the loop completes normally Explanation: The else block associated with a for loop executes only if the loop completes without encountering a break statement. 37 / 50 What is the output of print(10 % 3)? 10 3 1 0 Explanation: The % operator is the modulo operator, which returns the remainder of the division. 10 divided by 3 is 3 with a remainder of 1. 38 / 50 What is the output of print(type(10.5))? <class 'float'> 10.5 Error Explanation: 10.5 is a floating-point number, so its type is <class 'float'> 39 / 50 How do you comment out a single line in Python? -- This is a comment /* This is a comment */ # This is a comment // This is a comment Explanation: In Python, the # symbol is used to denote a single-line comment. Everything after # on that line is ignored by the interpreter. 40 / 50 How do you concatenate two strings s1 and s2? s1.concat(s2) s1 + s2 concat(s1, s2) s1.append(s2) Explanation: The + operator is commonly used for string concatenation in Python. 41 / 50 Which built-in function is used to get input from the user? input() read() get_input() read_line() Explanation: The input() function reads a line from input, converts it to a string (stripping the trailing newline), and returns that string. 42 / 50 How do you remove an element from a list by its index? del my_list[index] my_list.pop_at(index) my_list.delete(index) my_list.remove_at(index) Explanation: The del statement can be used to remove an item from a list at a specified index. my_list.pop(index) also works and returns the removed item. 43 / 50 What is the purpose of the if statement in Python? To perform conditional execution To handle exceptions To declare a variable To define a loop Explanation: The if statement is a conditional statement that executes a block of code only if a specified condition is true. 44 / 50 What is the output of print("Python"[2])? h y o t Explanation: String indexing in Python starts from 0. The character at index 2 in "Python" is 't'. 45 / 50 How do you check if an item exists in a list? item in my_list my_list.contains(item) exists(item, my_list) my_list.has(item) Explanation: The in operator is used to check for membership in sequences like lists, strings, and tuples. It returns True if the item is found, False otherwise. 46 / 50 What is the name of the built-in function that returns the absolute value of a number? mod() fabs() abs() absolute() Explanation: The abs() built-in function returns the absolute value of a number. 47 / 50 What is the output of print("Python".upper())? python PYTHON PyThOn Python Explanation: The upper() string method returns a new string where all characters in the original string are converted to uppercase. 48 / 50 Which statement is used to handle exceptions in Python? handle...fault check...error try...except catch...throw Explanation: The try...except block is used for exception handling in Python. Code that might raise an exception is placed in the try block, and the except block handles specific exceptions. 49 / 50 What does __init__ method do in a Python class? It defines a method It is a constructor for the class It initializes a variable It cleans up resources Explanation: The __init__ method is a special method in Python classes that acts as a constructor. It is automatically called when a new instance of the class is created. 50 / 50 Which of the following is used to iterate over a sequence (e.g., a list)? do-while loop while loop for loop if statement Explanation: The for loop is primarily used to iterate over elements of a sequence (like a list, tuple, string, or range).
