LAB # 02

VARIABLES AND OPERATORS

OBJECTIVE
Implement different type of data types, variables and operators used in Python.

EXERCISE
A. Point out the errors, if any, in the following Python statements.

1. x=5:
print(x)
>>> %Run 'lab2 exercise.py'
File "F:\lab files\lab2 exercise.py", line 1
x=5:
misuse of colon[:]
x=5
print(x)

>> %Run 'lab2 exercise.py'

5

2. 1TEXT = "SSUET" NUMBER = 1 print(NUMBER+ TEXT)

File "F:\lab files\lab2 example.py", line 1
• 1TEXT = "SSUET"
• A variable name cannot start with a number.
• Output
x="SSUET"
no=1
print(x,"+",no)

>>> %Run 'lab2 exercise.py'

SSUET + 1

1

3. a = b = 3 = 4
File "F:\lab files\lab2 ex.py", line 1
a=b=3=4
^
SyntaxError: can't assign to literal

Two values can’t assign to a single variable.

B. Evaluate the operation in each of the following statements, and show the
resultant value after each statement is executed.

1. a = 2 % 2 + 2 * 2 - 2 / 2;
a = 2 % 2 + 2 * 2 - 2 / 2;
print(a)

Output:
>>> %Run 'l2 code 1.py'
3.0

2. b = 3 / 2 + 5 * 4 / 3 ;
b=3/2+5*4/3;
print(b)

Output:
>> %Run 'l2 code 2.py'
8.166666666666668

3. c = b = a = 3 + 4 ;
c=b=a=3+4;
print(c)

Output:
2

C. Write the following Python programs:

1. Write a program that calculates area of a circle 𝐴=𝜋𝑟2. (Consider r =

50).

pi=3.142
r=50
area=pi*r*r
print("area of the circle:%2f"%area)

>>> %Run 'lab2 ex.py'

area of the circle:7855.000000

Output:
>>> %Run 'lab2 ex.py'
area of the circle:7855.000000

2. Write a program that performs the following four operations and prints their result on
the screen.
a. 50 + 4
b. 50 – 4
c. 50 * 4
d. 50 / 4

a=50
b=4

print("50+4=",a+b)
print("50-4=",a-b)
print("50*4=",a*b)
print("50/4=",a/b)

Output:
> %Run 'lab2 ex.py'
**Arithmetic Operators**
50+4= 54
50-4= 46
50*4= 200
50/4= 12.5

3. Write a Python program to convert height (in feet and inches) to centimeters.
Convert height of 5 feet 2 inches to centimeters.

• First, convert 5 feet to inches: 5 feet × 12 inches/foot = 60 inches

• Add up our inches: 60 + 2 = 62 inches
• Convert inches to cm: 62 inches × 2.54 cm/inch = 157.48 cm

print("**Conversion of height to cm**")

f=5
i=2
m=(f*12)+i
print("height in cm=",m*2.54)
Output:

**Conversion of height to cm**

height in cm= 157.48

4. Write a program to compute distance between two points by creating variables

(Pythagorean Theorem)
Distance =((x2−x1)^2+(y2−y1)^2)^1/2

print('**Pythagorean Theorem**')
x1=18
x2=24
y1=20
y2=26

print('d=',((x2-x1)**2+(y2-y1)**2)**(1/2))
Output:
