A)​18
B)​7
C)​33
D)​42

Accepted Answer

Python has 33 keywords, which are reserved words that cannot be used as identifiers (names) for variables, functions, classes, or any other naming purposes in your code.

Question 8

A)​numerals
B)​words
C)​letters
D)​all of the above

Question 9

Adding comments generally makes the code ________.
A)​easier to understand
B)​harder to read
C)​harder to maintain
D)​none of the above

Accepted Answer

Adding comments to code makes it easier for other programmers to understand the purpose and functionality of the code. It also helps the original programmer to remember what they were doing when they come back to the code later. While comments might add some clutter to the code, the benefits of improved readability and maintainability far outweigh any potential downsides.

Question 10

A place to enter source code for a computer program is called a(n) _______.
A)​interpreter
B)​code editor
C)​debugger
D)​compiler

Accepted Answer

A code editor is specifically designed for entering and editing source code for a computer program. Interpreters and compilers are separate software programs that take the source code as input and output either an executable program or an interpreted result. Debuggers are tools used to detect and remove errors in the program after it has been compiled or interpreted.

Question 11

Instructions that tell a computer what to do are referred to as code.​

Accepted Answer

Code is a set of instructions written in a programming language that tells a computer what to do.

Question 12

A________ is a computer program that is used to find errors that may exist in a program.​

Accepted Answer

The answer of A________ is a computer program that is...

Question 13

Instruction code for a computer program is based on an algorithm.

Accepted Answer

Instruction code is a sequence of instructions that a computer can interpret and execute. These instructions are based on an algorithm, which is a set of rules or steps that must be followed to complete a specific task or solve a problem. The algorithm serves as a blueprint for the program, and the instruction code is the actual implementation of the algorithm in a programming language.

Question 14

A sequence of steps for solving a problem or performing a task is called a code editor.​

Accepted Answer

A code editor is a program or software application that is used for writing, editing and debugging code. A sequence of steps for solving a problem or performing a task is called an algorithm or a procedure.

Question 15

To include more than one line of comments in your code, you must start each line with which of the following symbols?
A)​#
B)​*
C)​+
D)​==

Accepted Answer

The symbol # is used to indicate comments in Python. Any text that follows a # symbol is ignored by the interpreter and is only for human readability. This means that you can write multiple lines of comments by starting each line with the # symbol.

Question 17

The acronym IDE stands for which of the following?
A)​Integral Database End-user
B)​Integrated Development Environment
C)​Internet Data Enterprise
D)none of the above

Accepted Answer

The acronym IDE commonly stands for Integrated Development Environment, which is a software application that provides comprehensive facilities to computer programmers for software development. The other options, Integral Database End-user and Internet Data Enterprise, are not commonly used meanings for the acronym IDE.

Question 18

Instruction code for a computer program is based on a(n) ______.

Accepted Answer

The answer of Instruction code for a computer program is...
