language.
b) Consider the code given below. Analyze, identify the problem & correct the 6
code.
1. print("Python is a scripting language")
2. print("Python can be used as a procedural or object-oriented
programming language")
pages. Revealing of identification, appeal to evaluator will be treated as malpractice.

3. print(“PYTHON is interpreted language")

4. Errors = 10
5. Sum= 0
6. Logic = 3
7. while syntax!=0:
8. Sum+= 1
9. Syntax -= logic
10. print("Python is a dynamic typed language,)
11. print("Python is the most preferred language for gaming
applications")
c) A pangram is a sentence that contains all the letters of the English alphabet at 8
least once, for example: “The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog”.
Write a Python program to check a sentence to see if it is a pangram or not.
UNIT – II
2 a) Write a program, which will find all such numbers between 1000 and 3000 6
(both included) such that each digit of the number is an even number. The
numbers obtained should be printed in a comma-separated sequence on a
single line.
b) Use a list comprehension to square each odd number in a list. The list is input 8
by a sequence of comma-separated numbers.
Suppose the following input is supplied to the program:
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9
Then, the output should be:
1,3,5,7,9
 c) Write a Python program to get a list, sorted in increasing order by the last 6
element in each tuple from a given list of non-empty tuples.
Sample List : [(2, 5), (1, 2), (4, 4), (2, 3), (2, 1)]

class attribute is a tuple holding the following hunger levels:
“stuffed”,”full”,”peckish”,”hungry”, and “starving”. The two attributes need
to hold the name and the hunger. The hunger is an integer that will be used as
an index into the hunger levels tuple.

can hard code the data. Let the user enter his/her name and create a Vampire
Object.
v. Create a menu function to allow the user to print the humans and suck
blood.
vi. Create a function to print the humans. To do this, use the enumerate
function to print an index number or each human and then his/her info.
vii. Create a function to suck blood. This will ask the user to enter an index
number of a human. It will then call the suckBlood method on the human and
the vampire (provided the human had some blood left).
viii. Please add error checking(exceptional handling) and comments

(ii) F.seek(100,1)
(iii) F.seek(-10,2)

text_file.write("That makes this line 3\n')
lines = ["L1\n","L2";"L3\n"]
text_file.write(lines)
a=text_file.read()
print(a)
text_file.close()
