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. assignment operator
+
del
=
print

2. Modulus operator. It's the remainder after division
floating point number
a**b
*read
%

3. floor division
def
a//b
insert()
*readline

4. Function to read the contents of a file
+=
raise
:
read

5. Function to empty the contents of a file - no recovery is possible
-=
-=
int
truncate

6. subtract AND assignment operator
%d
-=
<
=

7. Symbol to subtract things from each other
-
not in
print()
class

8. single line comment
pass
#
a%b
insert()

9. Adds a new line character
abs(a)
while
=
n

29. Create a variable.
=
in
and
%d

30. A data type for representing numbers with fractional values.

#

31. Adds something to a variable
floating point number
a**b
*write(stuff)
=

32. Symbol used to create comments
#
except
%=
and

33. Writes stuff to the file.
=
str
*write(stuff)
input()

34. Greater than symbol
insert()
>
round()
^

35. Called Logical AND operator. If both the operands are true then then condition becomes true. (a and b) is true.

#
>>
a%b
try

39. Adds a new line character
>
<=
*write(stuff)
n

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

a%b

41. Binary OR Operator copies a bit if it exists in eather operand. (a | b) will give 61 which is 0011 1101
+
|
def
or

42. 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).
is not
not in
%s
a//b

43. modulus AND assignment operator
close
==
.py
%=

44. Less than symbol
-=
append()
abs(a)
<

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

46. This statement causes an exception.
print()
:
raise
a**b

print
()
*truncate

48. Symbol to add things together
a//b
+
return
<=
