Instructions:

Answer 50 questions in 15 minutes.
If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
Match each statement with the correct term.
Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.

1. square root
/
^
math.sqrt(a)
a%b

2. This statement exits a function. The remaining lines of the function are not executed.
round()
*
return
>=

3. Create a variable.

|
class
=

4. Symbol to add things together
+
append()
insert()
del

5. Symbol to subtract things from each other
else
%d
-
while

6. Function to read the contents of a file

12. Symbol to divide by the number to the right of the symbol
/

|
close

29. subtract AND assignment operator
&
def
floating point number
-=

30. A string that begins with the % symbol and contains a sequence of printable characters and format specifiers that determine how values output should look.
argument variable
=
format string
-=

31. Argument variable
<=
argv
a%b
%r

32. Holds the value of something - e.g. oh_hi = 4 where oh_hi is the variable.

argument variable
Variables
int()

33. modulo
a%b

^
not
int

40. Binary Right Shift Operator. The left operands value is moved right by the number of bits specified by the right operand. a >> 2 will give 15 which is 0000 1111
truncate
and
%s
>>

41. exponent AND assignment operator
%d
del
=
**=
