Assignment (3)

Name - Shishir Mishra

Branch (CSE)

SUBJECT - PYTHON

1. Define String Data Type and Its Operations


String is a sequence of characters enclosed in single (' ') or double (" ") quotes. Strings are
immutable, meaning they cannot be changed after creation.

Example:

my_string = "Hello, Python!"

Common String Operations:

text = "Python"

# Access characters
print(text[0]) # Output: P

# Slicing
print(text[0:3]) # Output: Pyt

# Length
print(len(text)) # Output: 6

# Concatenation
print(text + " Programming") # Output: Python Programming

# Repetition
print(text * 2) # Output: PythonPython

# Conversion
print(text.upper()) # Output: PYTHON
print(text.lower()) # Output: python
# Search
print("th" in text) # Output: True

2. Define List Slicing with Appropriate Example


List slicing is used to access a subset of elements from a list using a specific range.

Syntax: list[start:stop:step]

Example:

my_list = [10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60]

print(my_list[1:4]) # Output: [20, 30, 40]


print(my_list[:3]) # Output: [10, 20, 30]
print(my_list[::2]) # Output: [10, 30, 50]
print(my_list[::-1]) # Output: [60, 50, 40, 30, 20, 10] (reversed list)

3. Explain Dictionary Manipulation


A dictionary in Python stores key-value pairs. It is mutable, unordered, and indexed by keys.

Basic Manipulations:

# Creating a dictionary
student = {'name': 'Alice', 'age': 21, 'grade': 'A'}

# Accessing values
print(student['name']) # Output: Alice

# Adding a new key-value pair


student['subject'] = 'Math'

# Modifying an existing value


student['grade'] = 'A+'

# Deleting a key
del student['age']

# Iterating through keys and values


for key, value in student.items():
print(key, ":", value)
4. What Do You Understand by Python Function?
A function in Python is a reusable block of code that performs a specific task. It helps in
modularity and code reusability.

Defining and Calling a Function:

def greet(name):
print("Hello,", name)

greet("John") # Output: Hello, John

Function with Return Value:

def add(a, b):


return a + b

result = add(5, 3)
print(result) # Output: 8

5. Explain List Manipulation with the Help of Example


List manipulation refers to modifying and working with lists using built-in functions and
methods.

Examples:

numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

# Append element
numbers.append(6) # [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]

# Insert at position
numbers.insert(2, 99) # [1, 2, 99, 3, 4, 5, 6]

# Remove element
numbers.remove(3) # Removes first occurrence of 3

# Pop element
numbers.pop() # Removes last item
# Sort the list
numbers.sort() # [1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 99]

# Reverse the list


numbers.reverse() # [99, 6, 5, 4, 2, 1]
