b. It is a platform-independent programming language, which means it can be used on
any machine and in any operating system.
c. It has a simple syntax.
d. Python is a case-sensitive language.
e. It is an interpreted language.
f. It is free to use.

Q8. What are Variables in Python? Also, Explain the rules for writing variable names.
Ans: Variables are used to store data. A variable can store only one data value at a time.
When a new value is stored in a variable, its previous value gets overwritten.
Values are assigned to variables using the assignment operator (=). For example, the
statement x=25 assigns the value 25 to the variable x.
Rules to write variable names:
Certain rules in Python have to be followed to form valid variable names. The rules for a
valid identifier (variable name) are:
• A variable name must start with an alphabet (capital or small) or an underscore ().
• A variable name can consist of letters, digits, and underscore. No other character is
allowed.
• A keyword cannot be used as a variable name.
• A variable name can be of any length.
• Variable names are case-sensitive (e.g., Age and age are different variable names).
Examples of Valid variable names: Class, emp_code, totsalary, minvalue, bal_fee,
age1980, a45r

Q9. What do you mean by data type? Also, explain its type.
Ans: A Data type represents the type of data stored in a variable. The basic data types
used in Python are mentioned here:
1. Integer (int): It represents integer numbers means a number without a decimal point. For
example: 34, 567, 12, 343
2. Decimal(float): It represents numbers with a decimal point. For example: 34.5,1213.7,433.9
3. String (str): It represents alphabets or alphanumeric characters and string values should
always be enclosed within single or double quotation marks (“ “). For example:”abc”, “232”,
”age34”.
Q10. Explain input () function and print () function.
Ans: input () function: it is used to accept the value of a variable from a user. Users can use
int() and float() along with input() function.
Print () function: print() function is used to print a message or value.

Q11. What is the difference between an operator and an operand?


Ans: Operators are the symbols that perform some arithmetic and logical operations on
operands. Operands are the variables on which some operation is performed with the help of
operators.

Program 1: Write a program to add two numbers, and the values of both the
numbers should be entered at the output screen using the input() function.
Ans: a=float(input(“enter value of a:”))
b=float(input(“enter value of a:”))
c=a+b
print(“addition of two numbers is:”,c)

output:
enter value of a:234
enter value of b:345
addition of two numbers is:579

Program 2: Write a program to find the area and perimeter of a rectangle, and the
values of the variables should be entered at the output screen.
Ans: length=float(input(“enter value of length:”))
breadth=float(input(“enter value of breadth:”))
area=length*breadth
print(“area of a rectangle:”, area)
perimeter=2*(length+breadth)
print(“perimeter of a rectangle:”,perimeter)

output:
enter value of length: 20
enter value of breadth: 12
area of a rectangle: 240
perimeter of a rectangle: 64

Program 3: Write a program to find the area of a triangle, and the values of the
variables should be entered at the output screen.
Ans: base=float(input(“enter value of base:”))
height=float(input(“enter value of height:”))
area=0.5*base*height
print(“area of a triangle:”, area)

output:
enter value of base: 5
enter value of height:10
area of a triangle: 25
