(b) Unsupported operand type(s) for /: 'str' and 'int'.
(c) Invalid Syntax.
Short Answer Type Questions
Q.1 What is the difference between a keyword and an identifier?
Ans: Difference between Keyword and Identifier: Every language has keywords and identifiers,
which are only understood by its compiler. Keywords are predefined reserved words, which
possess special meaning. An identifier is a unique name given to a particular variable, function
or label of class in the program.
Q.2 What are literals in Python? How many types of Literals allowed in Python?
Ans: Literals: Python comes with some built-in objects. Some are used so often that Python has a
quick way to make these objects, called literals.
The literals include the string, Unicode string, integer, float, long, list, tuple and
dictionary types.
Q.3 How many types of sequences are supported in Python?
Ans: Three Types of Sequences are supported in python:
(i) String
(ii) List
(iii) Tuple
Q.4 What factors guide the choice of identifiers in program?
Ans: (i) An identifier must start with a letter or underscore followed by any number of digits
and/or letters.
(ii) No reserved word or standard identifier should be used.
(iii) No special character (Other than underscore) should be included in the identifier.
Q.5 What is the difference between an expression and a statement in Python?
Ans: A statement is an instruction that the Python interpreter can execute. We have only seen the
assignment statement so far. Some other kinds of statements that we‘ll see shortly
are while statements, forstatements, if statements, and import statements. (There are other
kinds too!)

An expression is a combination of values, variables, operators, and calls to functions.

Expressions need to be evaluated. If you ask Python to print an expression, the
interpreter evaluates the expression and displays the result.
Q.6 What are tokens in Python? How many types of tokens allowed in Python?
Ans: Tokens are the smallest unit of the program. There are following tokens in Python:
• Reserved words or Keywords
• Identifiers
• Literals Definition of all tokens may come. Which is not given
• Operators in this question bank.
• Punctuators

Q.7 What are operators? What is their function? Give examples of some unary and binary
operators.
Ans: “Operators are those symbols used with operands, which tells compiler which operation is to be
done on operands.‖ in other words – ―operators are tokens that trigger some
computation/action when applied to variables and other objects in an expression.‖
Operators are of following types:
▪ Unary operators like (+) Unary Plus, (-) Unary Minus, not etc.
▪ Binary Operators like (+) addition, (*) multiplication, and etc.

Q.8 What is block/code block/suit in Python?

Ans: Sometimes a group of statements is part of another statement of function. Such a group of one
or more statements is called block or code-block or suit in python. e.g.

Q.9 What is the role of indentation in Python?

Ans: Indentation plays a very important role in Python. Python uses indentation to create blocks of
code. Statements at same indentation level are part of same block/suit. You cannot
unnecessarily indent a statement; python will raise an error for that.
Q.10 How many types of strings are supported by Python?
Ans: Python supports two types of strings:
(i) Single-line string That terminates in single line.
(ii) Multi-line String That stores multiple lines of text.

Short Answer Type Questions

Q.1 What are data types? What are Python‟s built-in core data types?
Ans: Every value in Python has a datatype. Since everything is an object in Python programming,
data types are actually classes and variables are instance (object) of these classes.
There are various data types in Python. Some of the important types are listed below.
(i) Numbers (ii) String (iii) List (iv) Tuple (v) Dictionary
Q.2 Which data types of Python handle Numbers?
Ans: It is cleared by name that Number data types are used to store numeric value in Python. The
Numbers in Python have following core data types:
(i) Integers
a. Integers (signed)
b. Booleans
(ii) Floating-Point Numbers
(iii) Complex Numbers
Q.3 Why is Boolean considered a subtype of Integers?
Ans: Because Boolean Values False and True behave like the values 0 and 1, respectively. So
Boolean type is a subtype of plain integers.

Q.4 What do you understand by term „immutable‟?

Ans: Immutable types are those data types that can never change their value in place. In Python the
following types are immutable:
(i) integers
(ii) floating-point numbers
(iii) Booleans
(iv) Strings
(v) Tuples

Q.5 What will be the output of the following code? Why?

(a) 13 or len(13) (b) len(13) or 13
Ans: (a) 13 (b) TypeError: object of type 'int' has no len().
Q.6 What are mutable and immutable types in Python? List both of them.
Ans: Mutable types means those data types whose values can be changed at the time of execution.
They are as follows:
• Lists
• Dictionaries
• Sets
Immutable types are those data types that can never change their value in place. In Python the
following types are immutable:
• integers
• floating-point numbers
• Booleans
• Strings
• Tuples
Q.7 What are augmented assignment operators? How are they useful?
Ans: An augmented assignment is generally used to replace a statement where an operator takes
a variable as one of its arguments and then assigns the result back to the same variable. A
simple example is x += 1 which is expanded to x = x + (1). Similar constructions are often
available for various binary operators. They are helpful in making the source code small.

Q.2 What are loops in Python? How many types of loop are there in Python?
Ans: Loops are iteration constructs in Python. Iteration means repetition of a set of statements
depending upon a condition test. Loops has three basic elements within it to repeat the statements –
• Initialization (Start)
• Check Condition (Stop)
• Updation (Step)
Python provide two types of loop
(i) Conditional Loop while( (Condition based loop)
(ii) Counting loop for (loop for a given number of times).
Q.3 What is the syntax of if-elif statement in Python?

Q.7 What are list slices?
Ans: List slices are the sub-part of a list extracted out. You can use indexes of the list elements to
create list slices as per following format. Syntax is as follows –
Seq=ListName[start:stop]
Q.8 Does a slice operator always produce a new list?
Ans: Yes, this will create a new list.

Short Answer Type Questions

Q.1 How are lists different from strings when both are sequences?
Ans: Lists are similar to strings in many ways like indexing, slicing, and accessing individual elements
but they are different in the sense that
(i) Lists are mutable while strings are immutable.
(ii) In consecutive locations, strings store the individual characters while list stores the
references of its elements.
(iii) Strings store single type of elements-all characters while lists can store elements
belonging to different types.
Q.2 What are nested Lists?
Ans: A list can have an element in it, which itself is a list. Such a list is called nested list. e.g.
L = [1,2,3,4,[5,6,7],8]
Q.3 Discuss the utility and significance of Lists.
Ans: The list is a most versatile datatype available in Python which can be written as a list of comma-
separated values (items) between square brackets. Important thing about a list is that items in
a list need not be of the same type. List is majorly used with dictionaries when there is large
number of data.
Q.4 What is the purpose of the del operator and pop method? Try deleting a slice.
Ans: del operator is used to remove an individual item, or to remove all items identified by a slice.
It is to be used as per syntax given below –
>>>del List[index]
>>>del List[start:stop]
pop method is used to remove single element, not list slices. The pop() method removes an
individual item and returns it. Its syntax is –
>>>a=List.pop() #this will remove last item and deleted item will be assigned to a.
>>>a=List[10] # this will remove the ite at index 10 and deleted item will be assigned to a.
Q.5 What are list slices?
Ans: List slices, like string slices are the sub part of a list extracted out. Indexes can be used to
create list slices as per following format:
seq = L[start:stop]
Q.6 What do you understand by true copy of a list? How is it different from shallow copy?
Ans: A shallow copy means constructing a new collection object and then populating it with
references to the child objects found in the original. In essence, a shallow copy is only one level
deep. The copying process does not recurse and therefore won‘t create copies of the child
objects themselves.
True Copy means you can create a copy of a list using New_list=My_list. The assignment just
copies the reference to the list, not the actual list, so both new_list and my_list refer to the
same list after the assignment.

Short Answer Type Questions
Q.1 How are Tuples different from Lists when both are sequences?
Ans: Tuples are similar to lists in many ways like indexing, slicing, and accessing individual values
but they are different in the sense that –
Tuples are immutable while lists are mutable.
List can grow or shrink while tuples cannot.
Q.2 Can tuples be nested?
Ans: Yes, tuples can be nested. e.g (1,2,3,(4,5,6))
Q.3 Discuss the utility and significance of Tuples.
Ans: Tuples are great for holding static data that you don't plan on modifying and changing a lot.
Tuples are four to seven times faster than lists. This means for every list item manipulated, four
to seven tuples could be manipulated within that time frame. This has huge advantages for
scientific work, as this allows for speedy data reading.
Q.4 How can you say that a tuple is an ordered list of objects?
Ans: A tuple is an ordered list of objects. This is evidenced by the fact that the objects can be
accessed through the use of an ordinal index amd for a given index, same element is returned
everytime.
Q.5 How can you add an extra element to a tuple?
Ans: We can add an extra element to the tuple as follows – >>>T = T +(9,) e.g.

Short Answer Type Questioemns
Q.1 How are dictionaries different from Lists?
Ans: The dictionary is similar to lists in the sense that it is also a collection of data-items but it is
different from lists in the sense that lists are sequential collections(ordered) and dictionaries are
non-sequential collections(unordered).
Elements in lists or tuples can be accessed by using indexes. But in dictionaries the values can
be obtained using keys. By changing the sequence of key we can shuffle the order of elements
of dictionary while this thing is not possible in list.
Q.2 When are dictionaries more useful than lists?
Ans: Dictionaries can be much more useful than lists when we wanted to store all our friends cell-
phone numbers. We could create a list of pairs,(name of friend, phone number), but once this
list becomes long enough searching this list for a specific phone number will get-time
consuming. Better would be if we could index the list by our friend‘s name. This is precisely
what a dictionary does.
Q.3 Discuss the utility and significance of Dictionaries.

Q.4 Why is a dictionary termed as an unordered collection of objects?
Ans: But in dictionaries the values can be obtained using keys. By changing the sequence of key we
can shuffle the order of elements of dictionary while this thing is not possible in list. In
dictionaries there is no index. It uses its keys as index which can be rearranged. That‘s why a
dictionary termed as an unordered collection of objects
Q.5 How is clear() function different from del <dict> Statement?
Ans: clear() removes all the elements of a dictionary and makes it empty dictionary while del
statement removes the complete dictionary as an object. After del statement with a dictionary
name, that dictionary object no longer exists, not even empty dictionary.

Q.1 State the basic units of computer. Name the subunits that make up the CPU, and give
the function of each of the unit.
Ans: Basic units of computer are Input Unit, Central Processing Unit and Output Unit. Sub unites of
CPU are Arithmetical Logical Unit(ALU), Control Unit (CU) and Memory Unit(MU).
Q.2 What is the function of memory? What are its measuring units?
Ans: The computer memory is a temporary storage area. It holds the data and instructions that
the Central Processing Unit (CPU) needs. Before a program can run, the program is loaded from
some storage medium into the memory. This allows the CPU direct access to the program. Its
measuring units are byte, kilobyte, megabyte, gigabyte, terabyte etc.

Q.3 Why is primary memory termed as „destructive write‟ memory but „non-destructive
read‟ memory?
Ans: The primary memory is called destructive write because the data enter here are temporary.
That‘s why your RAM gets cleared after every restart.
Q.4 What is the role of CPU of a mobile system?
Ans: A mobile processor is found in mobile computers and cellphones.
A CPU chip is designed for portable computers, it is typically housed in a smaller chip package,
but more importantly, in order to run cooler, it uses lower voltages than its desktop counterpart
and has more sleep mode capability. A mobile processor can be throttled down to different
power levels or sections of the chip can be turned off entirely when not in use. Further,
the clock frequency may be stepped down under low processor loads. This stepping down
conserves power and prolongs battery life.
Q.5 What is SoC? how it is different from CPU? Why is it considered a better development?
Ans: A system on a chip (SoC) combines the required electronic circuits of various computer
components onto a single, integrated chip (IC). SoC is a complete electronic substrate system
that may contain analog, digital, mixed-signal or radio frequency functions. Its components
usually include a graphical processing unit (GPU), a central processing unit (CPU) that may be
multi-core, and system memory (RAM).
Because SOC includes both the hardware and software, it uses less power, has better
performance, requires less space and is more reliable than multi-chip systems. Most system-on-
chips today come inside mobile devices like smartphones and tablets. These are considered a
better development because of their small size and speed capability.
Q.6 What are various categories of software?
Ans: Software are classified into following categories –
(i) System Software
a. Operating System
b. Language Processor
(ii) Application Software
a. Packages
b. Utilities
c. Customized software
d. Developer Tools
Q.7 What is the difference between an interpreter and a compiler?
Ans: Interpreter: Interpreter is a type of system software that translates and executes instructions
written in a computer program lini-by-line, unit by unit etc. It is slower in execution because
each time when you run the program translation is required.
Compiler: Compiler is another type of system software that translates and executes
instructions written in a computer program in one go. Once compiled program need not to
translate again so it works faster.

Q.8 What is application software? Why it is required?

Ans: Application software is the set of programs necessary to carry out operations for a specific task.
Such as for word processing there are many application software like MS-Word, Wordpad etc.
These software are required to perform special task using the computer like painting, recording,
typing, data handling etc.

Q.9 Briefly explain the basic architecture of a computer.

Ans: Computer organization refers to logical structure of a computer describing how its components
are connected to one another, how they affect one another‘s functioning and contributes to
overall performance of computer.
Computers follow the ‗IPO‘ principal i.e.
Input →Process →Output
(That means a certain input is processed to
Generate specific output)
Q.10 What do you understand by input unit? What is its significance? What does computer
system consist of?
Ans: Input unit is formed by the input devices(Keyboard, mouse, MICR, OBCR etc.) attached to the
computer. Input unit is responsible for taking input and converting it into computer
understandable form(the binary code). Some common input devices are:
(i) Keyboard
(ii) Mouse
(iii) Microphone
(iv) Scanner
(v) Webcam
(vi) Optical Bar Code Reader
(vii) Optical Mark Reader
(viii) Magnetic Ink Character Reader
(ix) Touch Pad
(x) Track Ball
(xi) Joy stick
(xii) Touch Screen
(xiii) Biometric Sensors. Etc.
Q.11 What is the function of CPU in a computer system? What are its sub units?
Ans: The central processing unit (CPU) of a computer is a piece of hardware that carries out the
instructions of a computer program. It performs the basic arithmetical, logical, and input/output
operations of a computer system. The CPU is like the brains of the computer - every instruction,
no matter how simple, has to go through the CPU. So let's say you press the letter 'k' on your
keyboard and it appears on the screen - the CPU of your computer is what makes this possible.
The CPU is sometimes also referred to as the central processor unit, or processor for short. So
when you are looking at the specifications of a computer at your local electronics store, it
typically refers to the CPU as the processor. Its sub units are:
(i) Control Unit (ii) Arithmetical and Logical Unit (ALU) (iii) Memory Unit
Q.12 What functions are performed by the control unit?
Ans: The CU controls and guides the interpretation, flow and manipulation of all data and
information. CU sends control signals until the required operations are done properly by ALU
and memory. Another function of CU is the program execution. It means carrying out all the
instructions stored in the program. CU gets program instruction from the memory and executes
them one after the other. CU acts as a supervisor by controlling and guiding the operation
taking place.
Q.13 Distinguish between CPU and ALU?
Ans: Difference Between ALU and CPU is that arithmetic logic unit (ALU), another component
of the processor, performs arithmetic, comparison, and other operations. While Processor also
central processing unit (CPU), interprets and carries out the basic instructions that operate a
computer.
The main difference between CPU and ALU is that the CPU is an electronic circuit that
handles instructions to operate the computer while the ALU is a subsystem of the CPU that
performs arithmetic and logical operations.
Q.14 What is the function of output unit in a computer system?
Ans: Input devices are the hardware that give computers instructions. Output devices relay the
response from the computer in the form of a visual response (monitor), sound (speakers) or
media devices (CD or DVD drives). The purpose of these devices is to translate the machine's
response to a usable form for the computer user.
Q.15 Distinguish between internal and external memory.
Ans: Internal memory is usually chips or modules that you attach directly to the
motherboard. Internal Memory is a circular disc that continuously rotates as the computer
accesses its data. External memory often comes in the form of USB flash drives; CD, DVD, and
other optical discs; and portable hard drives.
Q.16 What are RAM and ROM? How are they alike? How are they different? What are PROM,
EPROM, EEPROM?
Ans: A ROM chip is a non-volatile storage medium, which means it does not require a constant source
of power to retain the information stored on it.
A RAM chip is volatile, which means it loses any information it is holding when the power is
turned off.
Both of them are known as primary memory as they can directly work with CPU.
