print('Changed local x to', x)
func(x)
print('x is now', x)
Answer:
x is 50
Changed local x to 2
x is now 50

a) identity() b) ide() c) id() d) idy()
23. The default value for a parameter is defined in function ?
a. Definition b. Return statement
c. Header d. None of the above
24. Function randint() is available under which module of python?
a. random b. math c. statistics d. None
25. By default if you return multiple value separated by comma, then it is returned
as tuple__
26. In keyword arguments we can skip the default argument, but all the
keyword arguments should match the parameters in the function definitions.
27. def keyword is used to define a function.
28. Function will perform its action only when it is called.
29. A python function may return multiple values?
a. True b. False
30. A python program execution begins with first statement of _main_ segment?
a. True b. False
Please choose the correct choice out of the four options given below:
a. Both Assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of
 assertion.
b. Assertion and reason both are true but reason is not the correct explanation
of assertion.
c. Assertion is true, reason is false.
d. Assertion is false, reason is true
1. Assertion: The function header ‘def read (a=2, b=5, c):’ is not correct.
Reason: Non default arguments can’t follow default arguments.
a. Both Assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation
of assertion.
2. Assertion: Every function returns a value if the function does not explicitly return a
value, then it will return ‘Zero’.
Reason: Zero is not equivalent to None.
d. Assertion is false, reason is true
3. Consider the following code:
x = 100
def study( ):
global x
x = 50
print(x)
Assertion: 50 will be the output of above code.
Reason: Because the x used inside the function study( ) is of local scope.
a. Both Assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation
of assertion.
4. Assertion (A): Keyword arguments are related to the function calls
Reason (R): When you use keyword arguments in a function call, the caller
identify
the arguments by the parameter name.
a. Both Assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of
assertion.

5. Assertion (A): global keyword is used inside a function to enable the function
alter the value of a global variable.
Reasoning (R): A global variable cannot be accessed by a function without the
use of global keyword.
a. Both Assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct
explanation of assertion

6. Study the following program and select the possible output(s) and write maximum
and minimum value assigned to the variable y .
import random
x=random.random( )
y=random.randint(0,4)
print(int(x),”:”,y+int(x))
(i) 0:0 (ii) 1: 6 (iii) 2:4 (iv) 0:3
7. What possible output(s) are expected to be displayed on screen at the time of
execution of the following code? Also specify the maximum and minimum value
that can be assigned to variable X.
import random
L=[10,7,21]
X=random.randint(1,2)
for i in range(X):
Y=random.randint(1,X)
print(L[Y],”$”,end=” ”)
 (a) 10 $ 7 $ (b) 21 $ 7 $ (c) 21 $ 10 $ (d) 7 $ 37
Maximum value that can be assigned to variable X is 2
Minimum value that can be assigned to variable X is 1
