44. Raman is looking for his dream job but has some restrictions. He is ready to
work for ‘Mumbai’.He loves Delhi and would take a job there if he is paid over
Rs.40,000 a month. He does not want Chennai and demands at least Rs.
1,00,000 to work there. In any another location he is willing to work for Rs.
60,000 or more in a month. The following code shows his basic strategy for
evaluating a job offer.
Code:
pay= _________
location= _________
if location == "Mumbai":
print ("I’ll take it!") #Statement 1
elif location == "Chennai":
if pay < 100000:
print ("No way") #Statement 2
else:
print("I am willing!") #Statement 3
elif location == "Delhi" and pay > 40000:
print("I am happy to join") #Statement 4
elif pay > =60000:
print("I accept the offer") #Statement 5
else:
print("No thanks, I can find something better")#Statement 6
On the basis of the above code, choose the right statement which will be
executed when different inputs for pay and location are given.
i. Input: location = "Chennai”, pay = 50000
a. Statement 1 b. Statement 2 c. Statement 3 d. Statement 4
ii. Input: location = "Surat" ,pay = 50000

 i. Ramesh needs to change the title in the dictionary book from ‘Crime’ to
‘Crime Thriller’. He has written the following command:
Book[‘Crime’]=’Crime Thriller’
But he is not getting the answer. Help him choose the correct command:
a. Book[2]=’Crime Thriller’
b. Book[3]=’Crime Thriller’
c. Book[2]=(’Crime Thriller’)
d. Book[3] =(‘Crime Thriller’)
ii. The command to merge the dictionary Book with Library the command
would be:
a. d=Book+Library b. print(Book+Library)
c. Book.update(Library) d. Library.update(Book)
iii. What will be the output of the following line of code?
print(list(Library))
a. [‘5’,’Madras Diaries’,’6’,’Malgudi Days’]
b. (‘5’,’Madras Diaries’,’6’,’Malgudi Days’)
c. [’Madras Diaries’,’Malgudi Days’]
d. [‘5’,’6’]
iv. In order to check whether the key 2 is present in the dictionary Book,
Ramesh uses the following command:
>>>2 in Book
He gets the answer ‘True’. Now to check whether the name ‘Madras Diaries’
exists in the dictionary Library, he uses the following command:
>>>‘Madras Diaries’ in Library
But he gets the answer as ‘False’. Select the correct reason for this:
a. We cannot use the in function with values. It can be used with keys only.
b. We must use the function Library.values() along with the in operator
c. We can use the Library.items() function instead of the in operator
d. Both b and c above are correct.

18. Lalit is a game programmer and he is designing a game where he has to use
different python functions as much as possible. Apart from other things,
following functionalities are to be implemented in the game.
(1) The players have to input their names and Lalit has to remove the
unnecessary blank spaces from the name.
(2) He is simulating a dice where random number generation is required.
(3) Since the program becomes too lengthy, Lalit wants a separate section
where he can store all the functions used in the game program.
(4) He wants to implement usage of less memory so he doesn’t want to
include all the functions stored in separate sections.
(5) In the game, one source object generates and throws balls and the player
has to catch the balls. Here the distance and time is to be calculated so that
the program can check whether the ball was caught or missed by the
player.
