WGU C859 PYTHON TEST PREPARATION
BANK TESTED QUESTIONS
⩥ What are the traits of Object-Oriented Programming (OOP)? Answer:
Organize code around objects, which encapsulate data and behavior.
⩥ What are the traits of Functional Programming? Answer: emphasizes
the use of functions and immutable data for computation.
⩥ What are the traits of Declarative Programming? Answer: describes
what the program should accomplish without specifying how to achieve
it.
⩥ What are the traits of Event-Driven Programming? Answer: Reacts to
events and user actions, triggering corresponding functions.
⩥ What are the traits of Logic Programming? Answer: defines a set of
logical conditions and lets the system deduce solutions.
⩥ What does Python syntax refer to? Answer: The set of rules that
dictate the combinations of symbols and keywords that form valid
Python programs
, ⩥ What is the purpose of indentation in Python? Answer: To define
blocks of code
⩥ Why might a programmer use comments for 'Preventing Execution'?
Answer: To temporarily disable lines or blocks of code
⩥ What is the primary use of whitespace in Python? Answer: To define
the structure and hierarchy of the code
⩥ What does Python use to define the scope of control flow statements
and structures like functions and classes? Answer: Indentation
⩥ What is the purpose of the input() function in Python? Answer: To
capture user input and store it as a string
⩥ What does the format() method do in Python? Answer: It enhances
output formatting by embedding variables in strings. (although 'f' strings
are easier to read)
⩥ What is the purpose of the Code Editor in a Python IDE? Answer: To
provide a text editor designed for Python, offering features like syntax
highlighting, code completion, and indentation.
⩥ What does this built in Python function do?: print() Answer: outputs
text or variables to the console
