TRUE / FALSE BASED QUESTIONS

6 State whether the following given statement is True or False : 1

7 State whether the following given statement is True or False : 1

random() function never returns an integer value.

8 State whether the following given statement is True or False : 1

In Python, keyword arguments must follow positional arguments in a function call.

9 State whether the following given statement is True or False : 1

A function must always be called with all parameters provided, even if some have default
values.

10 State whether the following given statement is True or False : 1

A variable declared inside a function is called a global variable.

11 State whether the following given statement is True or False : 1

ASSERTION (A) REASON (R) BASED QUESTIONS

Assertion (A) and Reason (R) based questions.

a. Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.
b. Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A.
c. A is true, but R is false.
d. A is false, but R is true.

12 Assertion (A) : A function is a building block of functions. 1

Reason (R) : Library functions are to import and use.

13 Assertion (A) : Importing a module with * makes the size of the program bigger. 1
Reason (R) : Python interpreter imports the module function code in the program before
execution.

14 Assertion (A) : In a Python function call, you can mix positional and keyword arguments. 1
Reason (R) : Python allows keyword arguments to be passed before positional arguments.

15 Assertion (A) : Default arguments in a function must be placed after all non-default 1
arguments.
Reason (R) : Python uses left-to-right evaluation for function arguments.

16 Assertion (A) : A function can return multiple values in Python. 1

Reason (R) : Python allows returning a tuple from a function.

17 Assertion (A) : Global variables can be accessed inside functions. 1

Reason (R) : Any variable inside a function is considered global by default.
