ACTUAL QUESTIONS AND CORRECT
ANSWERS
What are the traits of Imperative/procedural programming? - CORRECT
ANSWERS✅✅Focuses on describing a sequence of steps to perform a task
What are the traits of Object-Oriented Programming (OOP)? - CORRECT
ANSWERS✅✅Organize code around objects, which encapsulate data and behavior.
What are the traits of Functional Programming? - CORRECT ANSWERS✅✅emphasizes
the use of functions and immutable data for computation.
What are the traits of Declarative Programming? - CORRECT ANSWERS✅✅describes
what the program should accomplish without specifying how to achieve it.
What are the traits of Event-Driven Programming? - CORRECT ANSWERS✅✅Reacts to
events and user actions, triggering corresponding functions.
What are the traits of Logic Programming? - CORRECT ANSWERS✅✅defines a set of
logical conditions and lets the system deduce solutions.
What does Python syntax refer to? - CORRECT ANSWERS✅✅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? - CORRECT ANSWERS✅✅To define blocks
of code
Why might a programmer use comments for 'Preventing Execution'? - CORRECT
ANSWERS✅✅To temporarily disable lines or blocks of code
What is the primary use of whitespace in Python? - CORRECT ANSWERS✅✅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? - CORRECT ANSWERS✅✅Indentation
What is the purpose of the input() function in Python? - CORRECT ANSWERS✅✅To
capture user input and store it as a string
What does the format() method do in Python? - CORRECT ANSWERS✅✅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? - CORRECT ANSWERS✅✅To
provide a text editor designed for Python, offering features like syntax highlighting, code
completion, and indentation.

ANSWERS✅✅converts values to integers, floats, or strings; respectively
What does this built in Python function do?: max(), min() - CORRECT
ANSWERS✅✅returns the maximum or minimum value from a sequence
