Coding Snippets with Outputs
Coding Snippets with Outputs
The loop iterates over each character in `str1`, concatenates it with `str2`, and then prints the result followed by a tab space. This results in a series of new strings: 'Aate', 'Bate', 'Cate', etc., demonstrating string concatenation within loop iterations .
In string slicing `str1[11:21:3]`, indexing begins at the 11th character up to, but not including, the 21st character, with a step of 3. Starting from index 11 (G), characters are selected every 3 indices, resulting in the selection of 'G', followed by 'r' from index 14, and 'n' from index 17, thus yielding the output 'Grn' .
The operation `str1 += " by Tech Easy"` modifies `str1` in place by extending the existing string, due to the `+=` operator being defined to handle in-place string concatenation. Meanwhile, `str1 = "Delhi Schools"` reassigns the variable to a new string object, entirely replacing the original assignment with a new reference, not affecting the original string object .
Executing `print(city.capitalize())` will output `Chennai`, but `print(city)` will output `chennai`. The `capitalize()` method returns a new string with the first character in uppercase and the rest in lowercase without modifying the original string `city`, which remains unchanged .
The loop forms a descending pattern of asterisk characters, where each iteration multiplies `str1` by `i`, decreasing the count of asterisks by one each time. Starting from 5 asterisks down to 1, each line shows one less asterisk than the previous, highlighting the loop's decrement operation and string multiplication .
Strings in Python are immutable, meaning that methods like `replace()` do not alter the original string unless the result is assigned back to a variable. In `s.replace('o', 'e')`, the method creates a new string with replacements, but since the resulting string is not assigned to a variable, `print(s)` continues to output the original string without the changes .
The output of `print(str1[::-1])` will be `udaNlimaT`, which is the reverse of the string ‘TamilNadu’. The slice `[::-1]` is used for reversing a string by starting from the end to the beginning .
The assignment `str1 = "Delhi Schools"` does not modify the existing string object but instead points the variable `str1` to a new string object ‘Delhi Schools’. Variables in Python are pointers to objects, and replacing their assigned value points the variable to a different immutable string object, which is allowed .
The slice operation `str1[5:]` begins at index 5, corresponding to the character 'K', and includes all subsequent characters to the end of the string. Consequently, it outputs 'KKURAL', effectively demonstrating how slices encompass characters from a starting index to the end .
The error occurs due to improper use of quotation marks. In Python, strings enclosed in single quotes cannot contain an unescaped single quote within them without causing a syntax error. To fix this, the string should be enclosed in double quotes or the single quote inside the string should be escaped with a backslash .
