Answer 1: a
Explanation: The function upper() does not modify a string in place, it returns a new
string which isn’t being stored anywhere

Answer 2: d
Explanation: The loop does not terminate as new elements are being added to the
list in each iteration.

Answer 3: c
Explanation: SyntaxError, there shouldn’t be a space between + and = in +=.

Answer 4: a
Explanation: Control exits the loop when i become

Answer 5: b
Explanation: 0O11 is an octal number.

Answer6: d
Explanation: 9 isn’t allowed in an octal number.

Answer 7: d
Explanation: The loop does not terminate since i is never an even number.

Answer 8: b
Explanation: The numbers 2 and 4 are printed. The next value of i is 6 which is
divisible by 3 and hence control exits the loop

Answer 9: d
Explanation: Control does not enter the loop because of False..

Answer 10 : d
Explanation: SyntaxError, True is a keyword and it’s value cannot be changed.

Answer 11: b
Explanation: The else part is not executed if control breaks out of the loop.

Answer 12: b
Explanation: The else part is executed when the condition in the while statement is
false.

Answer 13: d
Explanation: NameError, i is not defined.

Page No 19
Answer 14: a
Explanation: “i” is not in “abcdef”.

Answer 15: b
Explanation: The instance of the string returned by upper() is being printed.

Answe 16 : c
Explanation: Objects of type int have no attribute upper().

Answer 17: c
Explanation: range() is computed only at the time of entering the loop.

Answer 18 : d
Explanation: abcd a a a is the output as x is modified only after ‘abcd’ has been
printed once.

Answer 19: c
Explanation: Objects of type int are not iterable.

Answer 20: a
Explanation: Loops over the keys of the dictionary.
