The Ultimate Guide to Python Programming With Python 3.10 - logging Module

The video tutorial explains the advantages of using the logging module over the print function for debugging applications. It covers how to use different logging levels such as debug, info, warning, error, and critical, and how to configure these levels to control the output. The tutorial also demonstrates string formatting with logging and how to customize the logging output format using the basicConfig function. By the end, viewers will understand how to effectively use the logging module to manage and format log messages in their applications.

What is one advantage of using the logging module over the print function?

• It can categorize messages by severity.

• It allows for color-coded messages.

• It requires less code to implement.

• It automatically fixes errors in the code.

Which logging function would you use to log a message that is more severe than a debug message but less severe than a warning?

• logging.error

• logging.debug

• logging.info

• logging.critical

Which of the following is a correct way to format a log message using the logging module?

• Using percent formatting with positional arguments.

• Using f-strings directly in the logging function.

• Using print statements with concatenation.

• Using a separate formatting library.

How can you ensure that only messages of a certain severity level or higher are displayed?

• By using the logging.basicConfig function to set the level.

• By using print statements instead of logging.

• By using a different logging module.

• By manually filtering messages in the code.

Which logging function would you use to log a critical error?

• logging.info

• logging.critical

• logging.warning

• logging.debug

What is the default logging level if not specified?

• Warning

• Debug

• Error

• Info

What is the purpose of the format keyword argument in the basicConfig function?

• To define a custom format for log messages.

• To change the color of the log messages.

• To specify the file where logs should be saved.

• To set the logging level.
