WHILE AND FOR LOOPS – 1 REASION

Ans 1. a [ The function upper() does not modify a string in place, it returns a new string which isn’t being
stored anywhere. ]
Ans 2. d [ The loop does not terminate as new elements are being added to the list in each iteration. ]
Ans 3. c [ SyntaxError, there shouldn’t be a space between + and = in +=.]

Ans 5. b [ 0O11 is an octal number. ]
Ans 6. d [ 9 isn’t allowed in an octal number. ]
Ans 7. d [ The loop does not terminate since i is never an even number. ]
Ans 8. b [ The numbers 2 and 4 are printed. The next value of i is 6 which is divisible by 3 and hence control
exits the loop. ]

Ans 3. d [ NameError, i is not defined. ]
Ans 4. a [ “i” is not in “abcdef”. ]
Ans 5. c [ As the value of i or x isn’t changing, the condition will always evaluate to True. ]
Ans 6. b [ As the value of i or x isn’t changing, the condition will always evaluate to True. ]
Ans 7. b [ The string x is being shortened by one character in each iteration. ]

been thrown. ]
