output. (b) 56.23
(c) 56.0000
 (d) 56.24
Answer: d
Answer: d Explanation: The instance of the string returned by upper() is being printed.
Explanation: The expression shown above rounds off the given number to the
number of decimal places specified. Since the expression given specifies 141. What is the order of namespaces in which Python looks for an identifier?
rounding off to two decimal places, the output of this expression will be 56.24. (a) Python first searches the built-in namespace, then the global namespace
Had the value been x=56.234 (last digit being any number less than 5), the and finally the local namespace
output would have been 56.23. (b) Python first searches the built-in namespace, then the local namespace and
138. Which of these is the definition for packages in Python? finally the global namespace

(d) A set of programs making use of Python modules finally the built-in namespace

Answer: b Answer: c
Explanation: A folder of python programs is called as a package of modules. Explanation: Python first searches for the local, then the global and finally the
built-in namespace.

Answer: d
Explanation: Tuples are represented with round brackets. Answer: d
Explanation: Python has a nifty feature called documentation strings, usually
163. What will be the output of the following Python code snippet? referred to by its shorter name docstrings. DocStrings are an important tool
z=set('abc$de') that you should make use of since it helps to document the program better and
