Q1: What is a computer?

Answer: A computer is an electronic device, under the control of instructions stored in its memory that can accept data (input), process the data according to specified rules(Program), produce information (output), and store the information for future use.

The word 'computer' comes from the word 'compute' which means to calculate.  Therefore, a computer is an electronic device that can perform arithmetic operations at high speed.


Q2: Why a computer is also called a data processor?

Answer: A computer is also called a data processor because it can store, process and retrieve data whenever desired.

CBSE Class 11 - Informatics Practices

Based on syllabus of Class 11 Informatics Practices, here are important Questions and Answers covered for the chapter List Manipulation.

The questions and answers will familiarise you with basics concepts of Python Lists and provide a framework for understanding the programming concepts.Software development isn’t any one thing, but a myriad of practices that coalesce into software in the end. Python has been a versatile language and is used by companies to write all sorts of applications.

List is an important data structure, part of a core Python. Lists have a variety of uses including data science, statistics and scientific computing. List is considered as a collection of objects and is ordered and changeable(mutable). It allows duplicate members.

Q1: What is the output of the following code?

list =['I','N','D','I','A']

print(list[0:3])

print(list[3:])

print(list[:])

Answer:

['I', 'N', 'D']

['I', 'A']

['I','N','D','I','A']

Q1: What is a list in Python?

Answer: List is a collections of items and each item has its own index value. It is the most versatile datatype available in core Python which can be written as a list of comma-separated values (items) between square brackets.

e.g.
[] # empty list
[1,2,3,4] #list of integers
[2.0, 4.56, 8.91, ] #list of floats
['Sunday', 'Monday', 'Tuesday'] #list of floats
['Nikita', 16, 'Class 11', True, 86.7] # list of mixed values

Q1: What are membership operators for strings?

Answer: Two membership operators are:
in Returns True if a substring exists in the given string otherwise returns false.
             e.g. "xy" in "xyz"  #returns True
                    "ab" in "xyz"  #returns False

not in Returns True is a substring does not exist in the given string;
e.g. "ab" not in "xyz"   #returns True
       "xy"  not in "xyz"   #returns False


Q2: What is the output of the following?
str1 = "Hello World!"
str2 = "he"
str3 = "He"
str2 in str1
str3 in str1

Q1: What is a string in Python?

Answer: String is a sequence of characters, which is enclosed between either single(' ') quotes or double quotes(" "), python treats both single and double quotes same.

e.g. 

      str1 = "Welcome to the Python World."

Q2: Can a double-quoted string contain single quotes? If yes, give an example.

Answer: Yes. 

Example:

str1 = "Nitika's Fashions" 

print(str1)

Similarly, A single-quoted string can also contain double quotes:

Example:

str2 = '"Help!", he exclaimed.'

print(str2)

CBSE Class 11 - Informatics Practices - Python - Augmented Assignment Operators (#eduvictors)(#cbseclass11Python)

Python - Augmented Assignment Operators

CBSE Class 11 - Informatics Practices

Python provides augmented assignment operators, which combine the impact of an arithmetic operator with an assignment operator.

e.g. If you want to add value of b to a and then assign the result to a i.e.  a = a + b can be written as
a += b

Various augmented operators are:

Operation	Description
x += y	x = x + y
x -= y	x = x - y
x *= y	x = x * y
x /= y	x = x / y
x //= y	x = x // y
x **= y	x = x ** y
x %= y	x = x % y
x &= y	x = x & y
x |= y	x = x | y
x ^= y	x = x ^ y
x >>= y	x = x >> y
x <<= y	x = x << y

CBSE Class 11 - Informatics Practices - Python - Variables (Questions and Answers)(#class11Python)(#eduvictors)

Class 11 - Informatics Practices - Python - Variables 

Q1: What are variables?

Answer: A variable is a name that is used to store data. It can be used to store different kinds of data. 

e.g. age = 16

It defines a variable named 'age' and stores integer value as '16'. Thus 'age' is an integer data type variable.

Every variable in Python is 'dynamic type' i.e. you need not declare data type of a variable or declare a variable before using it. Every variable in Python is an object.

Q2: What are the rules to define a valid variable?

CBSE Class 11 - Informatics Practices - Python Snippets -1 (Arithmetic Operators) (#cbsenotes)(#eduvictors)

Python Snippets - 1(Arithmetic Operators)

Arithmetic operators are used with numeric values to perform mathematical operations. Python supports the following arithmetic operators

⑴ +   Addition: To add two numbers i.e. a + b
⑵ -   Subtraction: To find difference of two numbers i.e. a - b
⑶ *   Multiplication: Product of two numbers e.g. 2 × 3 = 6
⑷ /   Division: To find quotient in division i.e. returning the floating-point result of the computation
⑸ %   Modulus: To remainder in division method
⑹ //  Floor Division or Intger Division i.e. rounds the result down to the nearest whole number
⑺ **  Exponentiation e.g. find 12² = 144

The above said are also called binary arithmetic operator because it requires two operands.
