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. Function to open or read a file
a**b
class
open()
format string

2. Function to open or read a file
open()
readline
not in
//=

3. Prints a string to the screen which is a signed decimal.
//=
int
del
%d

4. prints its parameter to the console
float
.py
=
print()

5. Evaluates to false if the variables on either side of the operator point to the same object and true otherwise. x is not y - here is not results in 1 if id(x) is not equal to id(y).
.py
-
file.readline()
is not

6. Function to close a file - it will not be able to be used again unless the file is opened.
close
+=
**=
=

7. Adds something to a variable
else
insert()
else
=

8. An operator to check whether two variables refer to the same object.
*read
open()
^
is

9. Less than or equal to symbol
abs(a)
//=
Variables
<=

10. A logical operator which negates an expression so that it returns a value of True if the expression is false.
abs(a)
not
:
else

11. Binary Ones Complement Operator is unary and has the efect of 'flipping' bits. (~a ) will give -60 which is 1100 0011
def
~
input()
truncate

12. 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.
in
break
str()
=

13. The keyword beginning a header that will create a loop.
/=
argv
len()
for

14. End header line.
int()
a%b
:
*truncate

15. reads just one line of a text file & keeps track of where in the file you're at
file.readline()
Variables
and
%s

16. Adds a new line character
is
n
a**b
<

17. rounds a number to the number of decimal points you choose
round()
=
|
elif (Else if)

18. Symbol used to create comments
#
n
continue
==

19. Greater than or equal symbol.
or
()
>=
while

20. A data type for representing numbers with fractional values.
len()
floating point number
Variables
break

21. turns an object into an integer
#
<
int()
read

22. End header line.
:
=
raise
round()

23. A logical operator which compares two operands and produces True if they are equal and False otherwise
input()
n
==
=

24. Function to write something to a file
write
%d
>>
=

25. Prints a string to the screen which is converted using repr()
:
-=
insert()
%r

26. A logical operator which returns a value of True if either of the conditions is true.
or
int()
:
str()

27. A built-in function that takes any value and converts it to an integer if possible - or complains otherwise.
>
*
int
len()

28. Evaluates to true if it does not finds a variable in the specified sequence and false otherwise. x not in y - here not in results in a 1 if x is a member of sequence y.
/=
not in
%s
argument variable

29. multiply AND assignment operator
=
for
*=
~

30. Argument variable
*write(stuff)
argv
<=
pass

31. adds an item to a list
append()
int()
abs(a)
float

32. Binary AND Operator copies a bit to the result if it exists in both operands. (a & b) will give 12 which is 0000 1100
raise
&
readline
n

33. Binary XOR Operator copies the bit if it is set in one operand but not both. (a ^ b) will give 49 which is 0011 0001
^
int
print
+

34. Binary AND Operator copies a bit to the result if it exists in both operands. (a & b) will give 12 which is 0000 1100
&
argument variable
raise
%=

35. Symbol used to create comments
print
not
#
%=

36. modulus AND assignment operator
%=
<=
and
and

37. Reads the contents of the file you can assign the result to a variable.
open()
abs(a)
*read
else

38. This statement causes an exception.
if
<=
file.seek()
raise

39. 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
>>
~
&
def

40. Binary OR Operator copies a bit if it exists in eather operand. (a | b) will give 61 which is 0011 1101
and
math.sqrt(a)
%d
|

41. Function to empty the contents of a file - no recovery is possible
math.sqrt(a)
*read
print
truncate

42. modulo
a%b
except
str()
open()

43. Holds the value of something - e.g. oh_hi = 4 where oh_hi is the variable.
%r
a%b
write
Variables

44. Less than or equal to symbol
%r
<=
%d
or

45. This keyword begins the simplest form of a conditional statement.
if
<
str()
del

46. This statement exits a function. The remaining lines of the function are not executed.
return
*=
|

47. ,multi-line comment hard-code,Fix (data or parameters) in a program in such a way that they cannot easily be altered by the user.
argv
<<
input()

48. The extension for Python scripts
/
math.sqrt(a)
.py
#

49. Turns a line into a comment instead of executable code.
a%b

#

+
<=
for
==
