Basic Python Programming

Subject : it-skills
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. This statement exits a function. The remaining lines of the function are not executed.






2. modulus AND assignment operator






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






4. floor division AND assignment operator






5. Reads just one line of a text file.






6. Command to print to the screen






7. prints its parameter to the console






8. inserts an item inside a list at a certain index






9. Less than symbol






10. turns an object into a string






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






12. unction to read one line of a file






13. A statement that ends the current iteration of a loop but continues looping.






14. Writes stuff to the file.






15. A logical operator which requires two expressions to both be true.






16. This keyword begins the simplest form of a conditional statement.






17. Symbol used to create comments






18. modulo






19. Symbol used to create comments






20. returns the length of a string (number of characters)






21. A keyword that does nothing but fill space to indicate code which will be written later.






22. returns the length of a string (number of characters)






23. A logical operator which returns a value of True if either of the conditions is true.






24. rounds a number to the number of decimal points you choose






25. This keyword in the body of a conditional allows chained conditionals.






26. Function to empty the contents of a file - no recovery is possible






27. Prints a string to the screen which is a signed decimal.






28. Modulus operator. It's the remainder after division






29. 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.






30. This keyword begins the simplest form of a conditional statement.






31. The keyword beginning a header that will create a loop.






32. divide AND assignment operator






33. ,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.






34. absolute value






35. exponent AND assignment operator






36. Less than or equal to symbol






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






38. A statement that displays a value on the screen.






39. Empties the file - watch out if you care about the file.






40. This keyword begins a header for a body that repeats until the condition is no longer true.






41. asks the user for a response and returns that response






42. Symbol to multiply things






43. End header line.






44. A logical operator which compares two operands and produces True if they are equal and False otherwise






45. Function to close a file - it will not be able to be used again unless the file is opened.






46. 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






47. This variable holds the arguments you pass to your Python script when you run it. Then you unpack it in your script so you have variables you can work with.






48. The extension for Python scripts






49. Reads the contents of the file you can assign the result to a variable.






50. Argument variable
