REVIEW OF PYTHON

BASICS
Which of the following is an immutable data type?
a) List
b) Dictionary
c) Tuple
d) Set
List (❌ Mutable): Lists can be modified after creation (elements can
be added, removed, or changed).

Dictionary (❌ Mutable): Dictionaries allow modifications like adding

or updating key-value pairs.
Tuple (✅ Immutable): Tuples cannot be changed after creation (no
modifications allowed).

Set (❌ Mutable): Sets allow adding and removing elements

dynamically.
What is the output of print(2**3)?
a) 6
b) 8
c) 9
d) None
In Python, the ** operator represents exponentiation (power).
Which of the following is not a valid Literal in Python:

a) True b) 0x2B
c) -2.5E-3 d) YUV
(a) True ✅
This is a Boolean literal in Python.
True and False are the only Boolean literals.

(b) 0x2B ✅
This is a hexadecimal integer literal (base 16).
0x prefix denotes hexadecimal notation.
0x2B = (2 × 16 + 11) = 43 in decimal.

(c) -2.5E-3 ✅
This is a floating-point literal in scientific notation.
-2.5E-3 means −2.5×10−3=−0.0025−2.5×10−3=−0.0025, which is valid.

(d) YUV ❌ (Invalid)

YUV is not a valid Python literal unless defined as a string ("YUV" or 'YUV').
If YUV is used without quotes, Python will treat it as a variable, and if not defined, it
will raise an error.
