Exercises
Chapter 2
Exercise 1
Write a Python program that accepts the user's first and last name and
prints them in reverse order with a space between them.
Exercise 1 solution
fname = input("Input your First Name : ")
lname = input("Input your Last Name : ")
print("Hello " + lname + " " + fname)
Exercise 2
Write a Python program that reads and displays your name, age, and
address on three different lines.
Name: Simon
Age: 19
Address: Bangalore, Karnataka, India
Exercise 2 solution
name = input("Enter your name: ")
age = input("Enter your age: ")
address = input("Enter your address: ")
print("Name:", name, "\n Age:", age, "\n address:", address)
Exercise 3
Write a Python program that calculates the area of a circle based on
the radius entered by the user. In geometry, the area enclosed by a
circle of radius r is π*r^2.
Exercise 3 solution
from math import pi
r = float(input("Input the radius of the circle : "))
print("The area of the circle with radius " + str(r) + " is: " + str(pi * r *
*2))
Sample Output:
Input the radius of the circle : 1.1
The area of the circle with radius 1.1 is: 3.8013271108436504
The third line print concatenates the string and the value of the radius and area using
the + operator and prints the final string.
Tip: Python str() function is used to convert an object to its string representation.
Exercise 4
Write a Python program to get the volume of a sphere with radius six. The volume of
the sphere is : V = 4/3 × π × r3
Exercise 4 solution
pi = 3.1415926535897931
r = 6.0
V = 4.0 / 3.0 * pi * r **3
print('The volume of the sphere is: ', V)
Sample Output:
The volume of the sphere is: 904.77868423386
Exercise 5
Write a Python program that determines whether a given number (accepted from the
user) is even or odd, and prints an appropriate message to the user.
Exercise 5 solution
num = int(input("Enter a number: "))
mod = num % 2
if mod > 0:
print("This is an odd number.")
else:
print("This is an even number.")
Sample Output:
Enter a number: 5
This is an odd number.
Exercise 6
Write a Python program to convert height in centimeters to inches.
1 inch = 2.54 centimeters
Exercise 6 solution
# Input height in centimeters
cm = float(input("Enter height in centimeters: "))
# 1 inch = 2.54 centimeters
inches = cm / 2.54
# Display the result
print("The height in inches is", inches)
Exercise 7
Write a Python program to swap two variables. Swapping two variables
refers to mutually exchanging the values of the variables.
Exercise 7 solution
# Input two variables
a = input("Enter the value of variable 'a': ")
b = input("Enter the value of variable 'b': ")
# Print the values before swapping
print("Before swapping:", (a, b))
# Swap the values using a temporary variable
temp = a
a = b
b = temp
# Print the values after swapping Sample Output:
print("After swapping:", (a, b)) Enter the value of variable 'a': 10
Enter the value of variable 'b': 20
Before swapping: ('10', '20')
After swapping: ('20', '10')
Exercise 8
Write a Python to check whether a number is divisible by another number.
Accept two integer values from the user.
Exercise 8 solution
# Input two integer values from the user
number = int(input("Enter the first number: "))
divisor = int(input("Enter the second number (divisor):
"))
# Check if the first number is divisible by the second
if number% divisor == 0:
print(number, "is divisible by", divisor)
else:
print(number, "is not divisible by", divisor)
Exercise 9
Write a Python program to determine the highest and lowest values among three
numbers.
Exercise 9 solution
# Input three numbers from the user
num1 = float(input("Enter the first number: "))
num2 = float(input("Enter the second number: "))
num3 = float(input("Enter the third number: "))
# Find the maximum
max_num = num1
if num2 > max_num:
max_num = num2
if num3 > max_num:
max_num = num3
# Find the minimum
min_num = num1
if num2 < min_num:
min_num = num2
if num3 < min_num :
min_num = num3
# Print the maximum and minimum
print("Maximum number:", max_num)
print("Minimum number:", min_num)
Exercise 10
Write a Python program to calculate the square, cube, and quadratic root of a
given number.
Exercise 10 solution
# Input a number from the user
number = float(input("Enter a number: "))
# Calculate the square
square = number * number
# Calculate the cube
cube = number * number * number
# Calculate the quadratic
quadratic = number ** 4
# Print the results
print("The square of:", number, "is", square)
print("The cube of:", number, "is", cube)
print("The quadratic of:", number, "is", quadratic)
