1. Create a list named integers that contains 0, 1 and 3.
2. Add the number 4 to the end of the list using two different methods.
3. Add the number 2 in the list at the correct index to get a sequence.
4. Print the list, it should display 0, 1, 2, 3, 4.
5. Create a new list that contains 5, 6, 7 and 8.
6. Add this new list at the end of the integers list.
7. Remove the number 0 from the list.

Right Answer:

# Step 1 integers = [0, 1, 3] # Step 2 integers.append(4) # Method 1: Using append() integers += [4] # Method 2: Using += operator # Step 3 integers.insert(2, 2) # Insert 2 at the correct index to create a sequence # Step 4 print(integers) # Output: [0, 1, 2, 3, 4] # Step 5 new_list = [5, 6, 7, 8] # Step 6 integers.extend(new_list) # Adding the new list at the end of the integers list # Step 7 integers.remove(0) # Removing the number 0 from the list print(integers) # Output: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8]

1. Create a list named values that contains 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10.
2. Slice the list such that you get every second element starting from the end, but not
including the last element.
3. Print the result (it should be 9, 7, 5, 3, 1).

Right Answer:

# Step 1 values = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10] # Step 2 sliced_values = values[-2::-2] # Slice to get every second element from the end, excluding the last element # Step 3 print(sliced_values) # Output: [9, 7, 5, 3, 1]

1. Create a tuple that contains 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, and 1
2. Count the number of 0 using a method.
3. Find the index of the first 1 using a method.
4. Delete the tuple.
Tips: To delete a tuple, you could use del followed by the tuple name.

Right Answer:

# Step 1 binary_tuple = (0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1) # Step 2 count_zeros = binary_tuple.count(0) print(count_zeros) # Output: 3 # Step 3 index_of_first_one = binary_tuple.index(1) print(index_of_first_one) # Output: 2 # Step 4 del binary_tuple # Deleting the tuple

1. Create a list named mylist that contains ‘abc’, False, 1 and 3.14159.
2. Change False and 1 to True and 0 in one operation.
3. Extract the element ‘abc’ from the list and assign it to a variable in one operation.
4. Print that variable.
5. Assign the 3 list elements into 3 variables in one operation.
6. Print these variables.

Right Answer:

# Step 1 mylist = ['abc', False, 1, 3.14159] # Step 2 mylist[1:3] = [True, 0] # Change False and 1 to True and 0 # Step 3 abc_var = mylist.pop(0) # Extract 'abc' and assign it to abc_var print(abc_var) # Output: 'abc' # Step 4 var1, var2, var3 = mylist # Assign the remaining list elements to variables # Step 5 print(var1, var2, var3) # Output: True, 0, 3.14159

1. Create a list named matrix that contains:
[1, 2, 3],
[4, 5, 6],
[7, 8, 9]
2. Print the element 8.
3. Print the second row of the matrix, i.e. 4, 5 and 6.
4. Print the third column of the matrix, i.e. 3, 6 and 9.
5. Print the diagonal of the matrix, i.e., 1, 5 and 9.

Right Answer:

# Step 1 matrix = [ [1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6], [7, 8, 9] ] # Step 2 print(matrix[2][1]) # Output: 8 # Step 3 print(matrix[1]) # Output: [4, 5, 6] # Step 4 third_column = [row[2] for row in matrix] print(third_column) # Output: [3, 6, 9] # Step 5 diagonal = [matrix[i][i] for i in range(len(matrix))] print(diagonal) # Output: [1, 5, 9]

1. Create a list named first_list that contains 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4.
2. Create a new list named copy_list by doing copy_list = first_list.
3. Modify the last element of copy_list.
4. Print first_list.
5. What happened ?
6. Find a way to correctly copy the first_list.

Right Answer:

# Step 1 first_list = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4] # Step 2 copy_list = first_list # This is an assignment, not a true copy # Step 3 copy_list[-1] = 9 # Modify the last element of copy_list # Step 4 print(first_list) # Output: [0, 1, 2, 3, 9] # Step 5 - Explanation # Both `first_list` and `copy_list` refer to the same list in memory, so changes to one affect the other. # Step 6 - Correct way to copy the list copy_list = first_list.copy() # Use the .copy() method for a true copy # Verifying by modifying copy_list again copy_list[-1] = 8 print(first_list) # Output: [0, 1, 2, 3, 9] (no change in first_list) print(copy_list) # Output: [0, 1, 2, 3, 8] (change only in copy_list)

1. Create a list named sports that contains "Football", "Basketball", "Swimming" and
"Tennis".
2. Ask the user for their favorite sport.
3. Print "We love that too!" if the user's favorite sport is in the list.

Right Answer:

# Step 1 sports = ["Football", "Basketball", "Swimming", "Tennis"] # Step 2 favorite_sport = input("Enter your favorite sport: ") # Step 3 if favorite_sport in sports: print("We love that too!") else: print("That's a great sport, but not on our list.")

1. Given a tuple named months that contains "Jan", "Feb", "Mach” and "Apr"
2. Try to correct the typo in "Mach" to "March".
3. What happens?
4. Convert the tuple into a list.
5. Retry to correct the typo in "Mach" to "March".
6. Convert the list into a tuple.
7. Print the tuple.

Right Answer:

# Step 1 months = ("Jan", "Feb", "Mach", "Apr") # Step 2 # Trying to correct the typo will raise an error as tuples are immutable. # Step 3 - Explanation # Tuples are immutable, meaning we cannot change their items directly. # Step 4 months_list = list(months) # Converting tuple to list # Step 5 months_list[2] = "March" # Correcting the typo # Step 6 months = tuple(months_list) # Converting the list back to a tuple # Step 7 print(months) # Output: ('Jan', 'Feb', 'March', 'Apr')

1. Create a list named floats that contains 1.1, 2.2, 3.3, 4.4, 5.5, 6.6, 7.7 and 8.8
2. Use slicing to get the elements 2.2, 3.3 and 4.4 in one operation.
3. Use slicing to get the elements from 3.3 to the end of the list.
4. Use slicing to get the elements from the start of the list to 5.5 included.
5. Use slicing to reverse the list.

Right Answer:

# Step 1 floats = [1.1, 2.2, 3.3, 4.4, 5.5, 6.6, 7.7, 8.8] # Step 2 print(floats[1:4]) # Output: [2.2, 3.3, 4.4] # Step 3 print(floats[2:]) # Output: [3.3, 4.4, 5.5, 6.6, 7.7, 8.8] # Step 4 print(floats[:5]) # Output: [1.1, 2.2, 3.3, 4.4, 5.5] # Step 5 print(floats[::-1]) # Output: [8.8, 7.7, 6.6, 5.5, 4.4, 3.3, 2.2, 1.1]

1. Given a list named days that contains "Monday", "Tuesday", "Wendesday",
"Thursday" and "Friday".
2. Correct the typo in "Wendesday" to "Wednesday" using the days list.
3. Print the list to ensure the change has been made.

Right Answer:

# Step 1 days = ["Monday", "Tuesday", "Wendesday", "Thursday", "Friday"] # Step 2 days[2] = "Wednesday" # Correcting the typo # Step 3 print(days) # Output: ['Monday', 'Tuesday', 'Wednesday', 'Thursday', 'Friday']
