Basic Python Interview Questions with Answers (1-10)

1. What is Python?

Python is a high-level, interpreted programming language. It's known for its simplicity, readability,

and versatility. Python is used for web development, automation, data analysis, machine learning,

and more.

2. What are Python's key features?

- Easy to read and write

- Interpreted language

- Dynamically typed

- Extensive libraries (like Pandas, NumPy, etc.)

- Supports OOP and functional programming

3. What is a variable in Python?

A variable is a container to store data. In Python, you don't need to declare a data type. Example:

x = 10

4. What are data types in Python?

Common data types are:

- int (integer)

- float (decimal)

- str (string)

- bool (True/False)

- list, tuple, dict, set

5. What is a list in Python?

A list is an ordered, changeable collection. It can hold mixed data types.

Example:

my_list = [1, 'apple', 3.5]

6. What is the difference between a list and a tuple?


- List: mutable (can change), written with []

- Tuple: immutable (cannot change), written with ()

7. What is a dictionary in Python?

A dictionary stores key-value pairs. It's unordered and mutable.

Example:

my_dict = {'name': 'Manoj', 'age': 22}

8. What is a function in Python?

A function is a reusable block of code that performs a specific task.

Example:

def greet():

print('Hello')

9. What is the difference between '==' and 'is'?

'==' compares values. 'is' compares identities (memory locations).

Example:

'a' == 'a' is True, but a is b may be False unless a and b refer to the same object.

10. What are loops in Python?

Loops repeat a block of code.

- for loop: iterate over a sequence
