1. Create a list named mylist that contains ‘abc’, False, 1 and 3.14159.
2. Change False and 1 to True and 0 in one operation.
3. Extract the element ‘abc’ from the list and assign it to a variable in one operation.
4. Print that variable.
5. Assign the 3 list elements into 3 variables in one operation.
6. Print these variables.

Right Answer:

# Step 1 mylist = ['abc', False, 1, 3.14159] # Step 2 mylist[1:3] = [True, 0] # Change False and 1 to True and 0 # Step 3 abc_var = mylist.pop(0) # Extract 'abc' and assign it to abc_var print(abc_var) # Output: 'abc' # Step 4 var1, var2, var3 = mylist # Assign the remaining list elements to variables # Step 5 print(var1, var2, var3) # Output: True, 0, 3.14159

You can’t use any loop for this exercise.
1. Create a list named numbers that contains 3, 4, 5, 1 and 2.
2. Ask the user to input a number.
3. Compare the user's number to the maximum of the list.
4. Print whether it is higher or lower than the maximum of the list.
5. Do the same using another method.

Right Answer:

# Step 1 numbers = [3, 4, 5, 1, 2] # Step 2 user_number = int(input("Enter a number: ")) # Step 3 if user_number > max(numbers): print("Your number is higher than the maximum of the list.") else: print("Your number is lower than or equal to the maximum of the list.") # Step 5 - Alternative method maximum = sorted(numbers)[-1] # Sorting to find the max value if user_number > maximum: print("Your number is higher than the maximum of the list.") else: print("Your number is lower than or equal to the maximum of the list.")

1. Create a list named values that contains 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10.
2. Slice the list such that you get every second element starting from the end, but not
including the last element.
3. Print the result (it should be 9, 7, 5, 3, 1).

Right Answer:

# Step 1 values = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10] # Step 2 sliced_values = values[-2::-2] # Slice to get every second element from the end, excluding the last element # Step 3 print(sliced_values) # Output: [9, 7, 5, 3, 1]

1. Given a tuple named months that contains "Jan", "Feb", "Mach” and "Apr"
2. Try to correct the typo in "Mach" to "March".
3. What happens?
4. Convert the tuple into a list.
5. Retry to correct the typo in "Mach" to "March".
6. Convert the list into a tuple.
7. Print the tuple.

Right Answer:

# Step 1 months = ("Jan", "Feb", "Mach", "Apr") # Step 2 # Trying to correct the typo will raise an error as tuples are immutable. # Step 3 - Explanation # Tuples are immutable, meaning we cannot change their items directly. # Step 4 months_list = list(months) # Converting tuple to list # Step 5 months_list[2] = "March" # Correcting the typo # Step 6 months = tuple(months_list) # Converting the list back to a tuple # Step 7 print(months) # Output: ('Jan', 'Feb', 'March', 'Apr')

1. Create a list named fruits containing the following items: "apple", "banana", "cherry".
2. Print the list to ensure it has been created correctly.
3. Create a tuple named vegetables containing the items: "carrot", "broccoli", "lettuce".
4. Print the tuple.

Right Answer:

# Step 1 fruits = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"] # Step 2 print(fruits) # Output: ['apple', 'banana', 'cherry'] # Step 3 vegetables = ("carrot", "broccoli", "lettuce") # Step 4 print(vegetables) # Output: ('carrot', 'broccoli', 'lettuce')

1. Given a list named days that contains "Monday", "Tuesday", "Wendesday",
"Thursday" and "Friday".
2. Correct the typo in "Wendesday" to "Wednesday" using the days list.
3. Print the list to ensure the change has been made.

Right Answer:

# Step 1 days = ["Monday", "Tuesday", "Wendesday", "Thursday", "Friday"] # Step 2 days[2] = "Wednesday" # Correcting the typo # Step 3 print(days) # Output: ['Monday', 'Tuesday', 'Wednesday', 'Thursday', 'Friday']

1. Create a list named sports that contains "Football", "Basketball", "Swimming" and
"Tennis".
2. Ask the user for their favorite sport.
3. Print "We love that too!" if the user's favorite sport is in the list.

Right Answer:

# Step 1 sports = ["Football", "Basketball", "Swimming", "Tennis"] # Step 2 favorite_sport = input("Enter your favorite sport: ") # Step 3 if favorite_sport in sports: print("We love that too!") else: print("That's a great sport, but not on our list.")

1. Given a list named colors that contains "red", "blue", "green", "yellow" and "pink"
2. Print the second and fourth items from the list.
3. Given the tuple named grades that contains "A", "B", "C", "D" and "F"
4. Print the first and last items from the tuple.

Right Answer:

# Step 1 colors = ["red", "blue", "green", "yellow", "pink"] # Step 2 print(colors[1]) # Output: blue print(colors[3]) # Output: yellow # Step 3 grades = ("A", "B", "C", "D", "F") # Step 4 print(grades[0]) # Output: A print(grades[-1]) # Output: F

1. Create a tuple that contains 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, and 1
2. Count the number of 0 using a method.
3. Find the index of the first 1 using a method.
4. Delete the tuple.
Tips: To delete a tuple, you could use del followed by the tuple name.

Right Answer:

# Step 1 binary_tuple = (0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1) # Step 2 count_zeros = binary_tuple.count(0) print(count_zeros) # Output: 3 # Step 3 index_of_first_one = binary_tuple.index(1) print(index_of_first_one) # Output: 2 # Step 4 del binary_tuple # Deleting the tuple

1. Create a list named integers that contains 0, 1 and 3.
2. Add the number 4 to the end of the list using two different methods.
3. Add the number 2 in the list at the correct index to get a sequence.
4. Print the list, it should display 0, 1, 2, 3, 4.
5. Create a new list that contains 5, 6, 7 and 8.
6. Add this new list at the end of the integers list.
7. Remove the number 0 from the list.

Right Answer:

# Step 1 integers = [0, 1, 3] # Step 2 integers.append(4) # Method 1: Using append() integers += [4] # Method 2: Using += operator # Step 3 integers.insert(2, 2) # Insert 2 at the correct index to create a sequence # Step 4 print(integers) # Output: [0, 1, 2, 3, 4] # Step 5 new_list = [5, 6, 7, 8] # Step 6 integers.extend(new_list) # Adding the new list at the end of the integers list # Step 7 integers.remove(0) # Removing the number 0 from the list print(integers) # Output: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8]
