What is the purpose of variables in Python?

• Variables in Python are used to store data values for later use.

• Variables in Python are used for decoration purposes only.

• Variables in Python are used to perform mathematical operations.

• Variables in Python are used to confuse the programmer.

How do you create a for loop in Python?

• for item from my_list:

• for i in range(my_list):

Explain the concept of functions in Python.

• Functions in Python cannot take any input arguments.

• Functions in Python always return a boolean value.

• Functions in Python are used for decorative purposes only.

• Functions in Python are blocks of code that only run when they are called. They can take input arguments, perform some operations, and return a result. Functions help in organizing code, making it reusable, and easier to understand.

How can you access elements in a list in Python?

What is a dictionary in Python and how is it different from a list?

• Lists in Python are unordered collections accessed by keys.

• A dictionary in Python is a collection of key-value pairs, where each key is unique. It is different from a list in that lists are ordered collections of items accessed by index, while dictionaries are unordered collections accessed by keys.

• Dictionaries in Python are ordered collections of items accessed by index.

What are conditional statements in Python and give an example.

• Conditional statements in Python are used to execute the same code block regardless of the condition

• An example of a conditional statement in Python is 'for' loop

• Conditional statements in Python are used to execute different code blocks based on certain conditions. One common conditional statement is the 'if' statement, which executes a block of code only if a specified condition is true. For example: if x > 5: print('x is greater than 5')

• A conditional statement in Python is 'while', which executes a block of code only once

Name some common data types in Python.

• integer, float, string, list, tuple, dictionary, boolean

• float

• char

• integer

• array

How do you display output in Python using the print() function?

• print[ "values" ]

• print= data

• Call the print() function followed by the content to display within parentheses.

• let values be printed

How do you take user input in Python using the input() function?

• Assign the input() function to a variable without a prompt message

• Use the input() function without parentheses

• Use the print() function to get user input

• Call the input() function with a prompt message as an argument.
