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

returns the absolute value of a number
What does this built in Python function do?: range() - CORRECT ANSWER -
generates a sequence of numbers
What does this built in Python function do?: sorted() - CORRECT ANSWER -
returns a sorted list from an iterable
What does this built in Python function do?: any(), all() - CORRECT
ANSWER - checks if any or all elements in an iterable are true
What does this built in Python function do?: map(), filter() - CORRECT
ANSWER - applies a function to elements or filters elements based on a
function
What does this built in Python function do?: open(), read(), write() -
CORRECT ANSWER - handles file I/O operations
What does this built in Python function do?: dir() - CORRECT ANSWER -
lists the names in the current scope or attributes of an object
