PYTHON

CH-6 Getting started with python.

Question 1:
Which of the following identifier names are invalid and why?
i Serial_no. v Total_Marks
ii 1st_Room vi total-Marks
iii Hundred$ vii _Percentage
iv Total Marks viii True

ANSWER:

i) Serial_no.: Invalid - Identifier in python cannot contain any special character except
underscore(_).

ii) 1st_Room: Invalid - Identifier in Python cannot start with a number.

iii) Hundred$: Invalid - Identifier in Python cannot contain any special character except
underscore(_).

iv) Total Marks: Invalid - Identifier in Python cannot contain any special character
except underscore (_). If more than one word is used as a variable then it can be
separated using underscore (_), instead of space.

v) Total_Marks: Valid

vi) total-Marks: Invalid - Identifier in Python cannot contain any special character except
underscore (_). If more than one word is used as a variable then it can be separated
using underscore (_), instead of a hyphen (- ).

vii) _Percentage: Valid

viii) True: Invalid - Identifier in Python should not be a reserved keyword.

Question 2:
Write the corresponding Python assignment statements:
a) Assign 10 to variable length and 20 to variable breadth.

b) Assign the average of values of variables length and breadth to a variable sum

c) Assign a list containing strings ‘Paper’, ‘Gel Pen’, and ‘Eraser’ to a variable
stationery.

d) Assign the strings ‘Mohandas’, ‘Karamchand’, and ‘Gandhi’ to variables first,

middle and last.

e) Assign the concatenated value of string variables first, middle and last to
variable full name. Make sure to incorporate blank spaces appropriately between
different parts of names.
ANSWER:

a) length, breadth = 10,20

b) sum = (length + breadth)/2

c) stationary = ['Paper’, ‘Gel Pen’, ‘Eraser']

d) first,middle,last = "Mohandas","Karamchand","Gandhi"

e) fullname = first +" "+ middle +" "+ last

Question 4:
Add a pair of parentheses to each expression so that it evaluates to True.

a) 0 == 1 == 2

b) 2 + 3 == 4 + 5 == 7

c) 1 < -1 == 3 > 4
ANSWER:

a) ( 0 == (1==2))

b) (2 + (3 == 4) + 5) == 7

c) (1 < -1) == (3 > 4 )

Question 5:
Write the output of the following.

a) num1 = 4
num2 = num1 + 1
num1 = 2
print (num1, num2)

b) num1, num2 = 2, 6
num1, num2 = num2, num1 + 2
print (num1, num2)

c) num1, num2 = 2, 3
num3, num2 = num1, num3 + 1
print (num1, num2, num3)
ANSWER:

a) 2, 5

b) 6, 4

c) Error as num3 is used in RHS of line 2 (num3, num2 = num1, num3 + 1) before
defining it earlier.

Question 6:
Which data type will be used to represent the following data values and why?

a) Number of months in a year

b) Resident of Delhi or not

c) Mobile number

d) Pocket money

e) Volume of a sphere

f) Perimeter of a square

g) Name of the student

h) Address of the student

ANSWER:
a) The int data type will be used to represent 'Number of months in a year' as it will be
an integer i.e. 12.

b) The Boolean data type will be used to represent 'Resident of Delhi or not' as a person
will be either a resident of Delhi or not a resident of Delhi. Therefore, the values True or
False will be sufficient to represent the values.

c) The integer data type will be used to represent 'Mobile number' as it will be a ten-digit
integer only.

d) The float data type will be used to represent 'Pocket money' as it can be in decimal.
e.g. Rs. 250.50 i.e. 250 rupees and 50 paise.

e) The float data type will be used to represent 'Volume of a sphere'.

The formula for the volume of a sphere:
Volume of sphere, V=43πr3
Even if 'r' is a whole number, the value of volume can be a fraction which can be
represented in a decimal form easily by float data type.

f) The float data type will be used to represent 'Perimeter of a square'.

The perimeter of a square:
Perimeter = 4 × side length
If the side length is a decimal number, the result may come out to be a decimal number
which can be easily represented by float data type.

Note:- If the side length is a whole number, the perimeter will always be an integer,
however, we should be open to the possibility that the side length can be in decimal as
well.

g) The string data type will be used to represent 'Name of the student'.

h)The string data type will be used to represent 'Address of the student'. However, if we
must store the address in a more structured format, we can use dictionary data type as
well. e.g. Address = { 'Line1': ‘Address line 1', 'Line2':'Address
Line2', 'Locality’: ‘Locality Name', 'City’: ‘City Name',
'Pincode':110001, 'Country’: ‘India'}

Question 7:
Give the output of the following when num1 = 4, num2 = 3, num3 = 2

a) num1 += num2 + num3

print (num1)
b) num1 = num1 ** (num2 + num3)
print (num1)

c) num1 **= num2 + num3

d) num1 = '5' + '5'

print(num1)

e) print(4.00/(2.0+2.0))

f) num1 = 2+9*((3*12)-8)/10
print(num1)

g) num1 = 24 // 4 // 2
print(num1)

h) num1 = float(10)
print (num1)

i) num1 = int('3.14')
print (num1)

j) print('Bye' == 'BYE')

k) print(10 != 9 and 20 >= 20)

l) print(10 + 6 * 2 ** 2 != 9//4 -3 and 29>= 29/9)

m) print(5 % 10 + 10 < 50 and 29 <= 29)

n) print((0 < 6) or (not (10 == 6) and (10<0)))

ANSWER:

a) num1 += 3 + 2
The above statement can be written as
num1 = num1 + 3 + 2 = 4 + 3 + 2 = 9
Therefore, print(num1) will give the output 9.

b) num1 = num1 ** (num2 + num3)

The above statement will be executed as per the following steps.
num1 = 4 ** (3 + 5) = 4 ** 5 = 1024
Therefore, print(num1) will give the output 1024.

c) num1 **= num2 + num3

The above statement can be written as
num1 **= 5
num1 = num1 ** 5
num1 = 4 ** 5
num1 = 1024
Therefore, the output will be 1024.

d) num1 = '5' + '5'

The RHS in the above statement is '5' + '5'. Please note that 5 is enclosed in
quotes and hence will be treated as a string. Therefore, the first line is just a string
concatenation which will give the output 55. The type of output will be a string, not an
integer.

e) print(4.00/(2.0 + 2.0))
The numbers written in the statement are in float data type therefore, the output will be
also in float data type.
print(4.00/(2.0 + 2.0))
print(4.0/4.0)
1.0
Therefore, the output will be 1.0.

f) num1 = 2 + 9 * ((3 * 12) - 8) /10

# The expression within inner brackets will be evaluated first
num1 = 2 + 9 * (36 - 8) /10
# The expression within outer brackets will be evaluated next
num1 = 2 + 9 * 28/10
# * and / are of same precedence, hence, left to right order is followed
num1 = 2 + 252/10
num1 = 2 + 25.2
num1 = 27.2
Therefore, the output will be 27.2.

g) num1 = 24 // 4 // 2
#When the operators are same, left to right order will be followed for operation
num1 = 6 // 2
#When floor division is used, return value will be int data type
num1 = 3
Therefore, the output will be 3

h) num1 = float(10)
float(10) will convert integer value to float value and therefore, the output will be
10.0.

i) num1 = int('3.14')
This will result in an error as we cannot pass string representation of float to an int
function.
j) print('Bye' == 'BYE')
As Python compares string character to character and when different characters are
found then their Unicode value is compared. The character with lower Unicode value is
considered to be smaller. Here, 'y' has Unicode 121 and 'Y' has 89. Therefore, the
output will be 'False'.

k) print(10 != 9 and 20 >= 20)

print(True and True)
print(True)
Therefore, the output will be 'True'.

l) print(10 + 6 * 2 ** 2 != 9//4 -3 and 29>= 29/9)

Taking the above statement in two separate parts

LHS:
10 + 6 * 2 ** 2 != 9//4 - 3
10 + 6 * 4 != 2 - 3
10 + 24 != -1
34 != -1
True

RHS:
29 >= 29/9
True

Now the complete equation can be written as

print(True and True)
Therefore, the output will be 'True'.

m) print(5 % 10 + 10 < 50 and 29 <= 29)

Taking the above statement in two separate parts

LHS :
5 % 10 + 10 < 50
5 + 10 < 50
15 < 50
True

RHS:
29 <= 29
True

Now, the complete equation can be written as

print(True and True)
Therefore, the output will be 'True'.
n) print( (0 < 6) or (not (10 == 6) and (10<0) ) )
print(True or (not False and False))
print(True or (True and False))
# not will be evaluated before and/or.
print(True or False)
print(True)
Therefore, the output will be 'True'.

Question 8:
Categorise the following as syntax error, logical error, or runtime error:

a) 25 / 0

b) num1 = 25; num2 = 0; num1 / num2

ANSWER:

a) Runtime Error. The syntax for the division is correct. The error will arise only when
'interpreter' will run this line.

b) Runtime Error. The syntax is correct. The error will arise only when 'interpreter' will
run the line containing these statements.

Question 10:
Write a Python program to convert temperature in degree Celsius to degree
Fahrenheit. If water boils at 100 degree C and freezes as 0 degree C, use the
program to find out what is the boiling point and freezing point of water on the
Fahrenheit scale. (Hint: T(°F) = T(°C) × 9/5 + 32)
ANSWER:

Program:
#defining the boiling and freezing temp in celcius
boil = 100
freeze = 0
print('Water Boiling temperature in Fahrenheit::')
#Calculating Boiling temperature in Fahrenheit
tb = boil * (9/5) + 32
#Printing the temperature
print(tb)
print('Water Freezing temperature in Fahrenheit::')
#Calculating Boiling temperature in Fahrenheit
tf = freeze * (9/5) + 32
#Printing the temperature
print(tf)

OUTPUT:
Water Boiling temperature in Fahrenheit::
212.0
Water Freezing temperature in Fahrenheit::
32.0

Question 11:

Write a Python program to calculate the amount payable if money has been lent on
simple interest.
Principal or money lent = P, Rate of interest = R% per annum and Time = T years. Then
Simple Interest (SI) = (P x R x T)/ 100.
Amount payable = Principal + SI. P, R and T are given as input to the program.
ANSWER:

Program:

#Asking the user for Principal, rate of interest and time

P = float(input('Enter the principal: '))
R = float(input('Enter the rate of interest per annum: '))
T = float(input('Enter the time in years: '))
#calculating simple interest
SI = (P * R * T)/100
#caculating amount = Simple Interest + Principal
amount = SI + P
#Printing the total amount
print('Total amount:’, amount)

OUTPUT:-
Enter the principal: 12500
Enter the rate of interest per annum: 4.5
Enter the time in years: 4
Total amount: 14750.0

Question 12:
Write a program to calculate in how many days a work will be completed by three
persons A, B and C together. A, B, C take x days, y days and z days respectively
to do the job alone. The formula to calculate the number of days if they work
together is xyz/(xy + yz + xz) days where x, y, and z are given as input to the
program.
ANSWER:

Program:

#Asking for the number of days taken by A, B, C to complete the

work alone
x = int(input('Enter the number of days required by A to complete
work alone: '))
y = int(input('Enter the number of days required by B to complete
work alone: '))
z = int(input('Enter the number of days required by C to complete
work alone: '))

#calculating the time if all three person work together

#formula used as per the question
combined = (x * y * z)/(x*y + y*z + x*z)
#rounding the answer to 2 decimal places for easy readability
days = round(combined,2)
#printing the total time taken by all three persons
print('Total time taken to complete work if A, B and C work
together: ', days)

OUTPUT:-
Enter the number of days required by A to complete work alone: 8
Enter the number of days required by B to complete work alone: 10
Enter the number of days required by C to complete work alone: 20
Total time taken to complete work if A, B and C work together:
3.64

Question 18:
The volume of a sphere with radius r is 4/3πr3. Write a Python program to find the
volume of spheres with radius 7 cm, 12 cm, 16 cm, respectively.
ANSWER:

Program:
#defining three different radius using variables r1, r2, r3
r1 = 7
r2 = 12
r3 = 16
#calculating the volume using the formula
volume1 = (4/3*22/7*r1**3)
volume2 = (4/3*22/7*r2**3)
volume3 = (4/3*22/7*r3**3)

#printing the volume after using the round function to two

decimal place for better readability

print("When the radius is",r1,"cm, the volume of the sphere will

be", round(volume1,2),"cc")
print("When the radius is",r2,"cm, the volume of the sphere will
be", round(volume2,2),"cc")
print("When the radius is",r3,"cm, the volume of the sphere will
be", round(volume3,2),"cc")

OUTPUT:
When the radius is 7 cm, the volume of the sphere will be 1437.33 cc
When the radius is 12 cm, the volume of the sphere will be 7241.14 cc
When the radius is 16 cm, the volume of the sphere will be 17164.19 cc

Question 12
Write a program whose three sample runs are shown below:
Sample Run 1:
Random number between 0 and 5 (A) : 2
Random number between 0 and 5 (B) :5.
A to the power B = 32
Sample Run 2:
Random number between 0 and 5 (A) : 4
Random number between 0 and 5 (B) :3.
A to the power B = 64
Sample Run 3:
Random number between 0 and 5 (A) : 1
Random number between 0 and 5 (B) :1.
A to the power B = 1

Solution

import random

a = random.randint(0, 5)
b = random.randint(0, 5)
c = a ** b

print("Random number between 0 and 5 (A) :", a)

print("Random number between 0 and 5 (B) :", b)

A to the power B = 125

Question 13
Write a program that generates six random numbers in a
sequence created with (start, stop, step). Then print the
mean, median and mode of the generated numbers.

Solution

import random
import statistics

start = int(input("Enter start: "))

stop = int(input("Enter stop: "))
step = int(input("Enter step: "))

a = random.randrange(start, stop, step)

b = random.randrange(start, stop, step)
c = random.randrange(start, stop, step)
d = random.randrange(start, stop, step)
e = random.randrange(start, stop, step)
f = random.randrange(start, stop, step)

print("Generated Numbers:")
print(a, b, c, d, e, f)

seq = (a, b, c, d, e, f)

mean = statistics.mean(seq)
median = statistics.median(seq)
mode = statistics.mode(seq)

print("Mean =", mean)

print("Median =", median)
print("Mode =", mode)

Output

Enter start: 100

Enter stop: 500
Enter step: 5
Generated Numbers:
235 255 320 475 170 325
Mean = 296.6666666666667
Median = 287.5
Mode = 235
