Experiment No. 2

Aim: Study of Strings, Lists, Tuples, Dictionaries, Sets, Accessing Elements, Properties,
Operations and methods on these data structures.

Problem Statement:

1. Write a Python code to count occurrences of an element in a list


2. Write a program to carry out the following operations on the given set
s = {10, 2, -3, 4, 5, 88}
a) Number of items in set s
b) Maximum element in set s
c) Minimum element in set s
d) Sum of all elements in set s
e) Obtain a new sorted set from s, set remaining unchanged
f) Report whether is 100 an element of set s
g) Report whether -3 is not an element of set s
3. Write a Python code to demonstrate student information Student Name Marks (5 Students)

Theory:
1. Explain various Data Types in Python.

Various Data Types in Python are as follows:

String: String is sequence of Unicode characters. We can use single quotes or double quotes to
represent strings. Multi-line strings can be denoted using triple quotes, ''' or """

s = "This is a string”

Slicing operator [ ] can be used with string. Strings are immutable


List: List is an ordered sequence of items. It is one of the most used data type in Python and is very
flexible. All the items in a list do not need to be of the same type.

Declaring a list is pretty straight forward. Items separated by commas are enclosed within brackets

[ ].

>>> a = [1, 2.2, 'python']

We can use the slicing operator [ ] to extract an item or a range of items from a list. Index starts form
0 in Python

Lists are mutable, meaning, value of elements of a list can be altered.

Tuple: Tuple is an ordered sequence of items same as list. The only difference is that tuples are
immutable. Tuples once created cannot be modified.

Tuples are used to write-protect data and are usually faster than list as it cannot change dynamically.

It is defined within parentheses () where items are separated by commas.

>>> t = (5,'program', 1+3j)

We can use the slicing operator [] to extract items but we cannot change its value.

Set: Set is an unordered collection of unique items. Set is defined by values separated by comma
inside braces {}. Items in a set are not ordered.

a = {5,2,3,1,4}

print ("a = ", a)

print(type(a))

We can perform set operations like union, intersection on two sets. Set have unique values. They
eliminate duplicates.
Since, set are unordered collection, indexing has no meaning. Hence the slicing operator [] does not
work.

Dictionary: Dictionary is an unordered collection of key-value pairs.

It is generally used when we have a huge amount of data. Dictionaries are optimized for retrieving
data. We must know the key to retrieve the value.

In Python, dictionaries are defined within braces {} with each item being a pair in the form key:
value.

Key and value can be of any type. d = {1:'value','key':2}

type(d) #<class 'dict'> print("d[1] = ", d[1]) print("d['key'] = ", d['key'])

We use key to retrieve the respective value. But not the other way around.
