Study Notes
Python File Extensions
- The default extension for a Python file is .py
Python Control Structures
- Control structures in Python dictate the order of statement execution in a program.
- They do not define data structures or handle program startup/termination.
Python if
Statement
- A valid Python
if
statement isif x >= 9:
Compile Time Errors
- Compile time errors include syntax errors and semantic errors.
Tuple Slicing
- Given the tuple
tup1 = (10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90)
, the output ofprint(tup1[3:7:2])
is(40, 60)
String Concatenation
- Concatenating strings 'p' and 'q' gives the result 'pq'
Function Calls
- Function calls like
Calc(15, 25)
andCalc(X=15, Y=25)
are valid.Calc(Y=25)
is only valid for optional parameters.
SQL UPDATE
- The command to change some values in existing rows in a SQL table is
UPDATE
.
SQL Keywords
- Invalid Python identifiers include
break
,section
, andmark12
.
Relational Database Rules
- Relational databases must comply with at least 6 rules.
File Opening
- Opening a text file 'Notes.txt' for writing in Python can use modes 'w', 'a', 'A', or 'w+'. Mode 'w' overwrites content, 'a' appends, 'A' is the same as 'a', 'w+' opens for read and write, with the prior contents being overwritten for write operations.
Network Types
- A peer-to-peer network has no servers.
Modules for Serialization
- The
pickle
module serializes Python objects.
Database Connection Arguments
- Mandatory arguments to connect a database from Python are username, password, hostname, database name, and port.
Cursor Fetching
- The
cursor.fetchmany(SIZE)
method fetches a limited number of rows from a table.
Assertion and Reason
- Assertion and Reason questions ask students to evaluate a statement of assertion (A) and a statement of reason (R). The correct choice depends on whether both statements are true and if reason is a correct explanation for assertion. (A), (B), (C), (D) are possible answers.
Decision Making and Selection Statements
-
if-elif
andif-else
statements are decision-making statements.for
statements are not.
Loop Types
- Python's
for
loop is an entry-controlled loop;
List Brackets
-
[]
are used to define a Python list.
Function Definition Inside a Class
- A function defined inside a class is called a method.
Relational Database Components
- Relational databases are collections of tables, each with records (rows) and fields (columns).
File Object tell()
- The
tell()
method in Python file objects returns the current byte position of the file pointer as an integer.
Table Field
- A field in a SQL table is also called an attribute.
File Content Separators
- Whitespace (spaces, tabs) commonly separate content in text files, however commas, tabs or others are possible.
Aggregate Functions
- The function
JOIN
is not an aggregate function.
Network Switching Techniques
- Switching mechanisms, including circuit, message, and packet switching, use differing strategies.
Python Indices
- In the list
["John", "Harry", "Jesse", "John", "Harry", "Harry"]
, the item at index 3 is "John".
Cursor Methods for Database Functions
- The method
cursor.callproc
is used to execute stored procedures in Python.
SQL Query Result
- The result of executing SQL query on a database connection is a result set.
Properties of Mutable Objects
- Strings in Python are immutable objects, meaning their values can't be changed. Conversely, lists are mutable.
String Concatenation
- Strings can be combined using the
+
operator.
Invalid Python Identifiers
- An example of an invalid identifier in Python is
2ndName
.
Arithmetic Operators
- The arithmetic operators
//
,?
,<
, andand
are possible answers, depending on the context; however,//
is common.
