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.

a//b
<=
<<
for

26. Less than or equal to symbol
<=
del
/
=

27. Binary Left Shift Operator. The left operands value is moved left by the number of bits specified by the right operand. a << 2 will give 240 which is 1111 0000

=
abs(a)

35. assignment operator
*=
|
/
=

**=
truncate
raise
print

39. floor division AND assignment operator
del
abs(a)
break
//=

40. Evaluates to true if it finds a variable in the specified sequence and false otherwise. x in y - here in results in a 1 if x is a member of sequence y.
elif (Else if)
in
del
print()

41. assignment operator
not in
round()
=
del

42. A logical operator which compares two operands and produces True if they are equal and False otherwise
else
|
==
-

43. empties the file
del
input()
file.truncate()

44. An operator to check whether two variables refer to the same object.
*=
is
/=
%r
