Sure, let's go through each question one by one.
1.c: What will the following code produce as output?
1 + 2 + 36
Key Concept
String concatenation and type conversion
Explanation
The code concatenates the string "1 + 2 + 3" with the string representation of the sum of 1, 2, and 3 (which is 6), followed by the string representations of 1, 2, and 3.
1.d: What does the execution of the operation "f > 47" achieve?
It compares the value of f to 47 and returns a boolean result (True or False)
Key Concept
Explanation
The ">" operator compares two values and returns "True" if the left operand is greater than the right operand, otherwise it returns "False".
1.e: Describe a unary operator.
A unary operator is an operator that operates on a single operand.
Key Concept
Explanation
Unary operators perform operations on a single operand. Examples include negation ("-"), logical NOT ("!" in some languages, "not" in Python), and increment/decrement operators in some languages.
1.f: What are the values of "a" and "t" after the following lines have been executed?
a = 3, t = 5
Key Concept
Assignment and arithmetic operations
Explanation
Initially, "a" is set to 4. "t" is then set to "a + 1", which is 5. Finally, "a" is updated to "a - a // 3", which is "4 - 1 = 3".
1.g: Given the statement "X = some_string", where variable "some_string" is a string type, what are two essential operations performed with Python3 operation "float(x)"?
Conversion of a string to a floating-point number and error handling if the string is not a valid number
Key Concept
Type conversion and error handling
Explanation
The "float(x)" function converts a string "x" to a floating-point number. If the string cannot be converted to a float, it raises a "ValueError".
1.h: What are the values of "b" and "t" after the following lines have been executed?
b = -3, t = -1.0
Key Concept
Unary operations and division
Explanation
The value of "b" remains "-3" after the unary operations. The expression "-(+(b))" simplifies to "-(-3)", which is "3", but it does not change the value of "b". The division "b / 3" results in "-1.0".
