Question 1- Quiz

Follow your teacher instruction to do the quiz, then Add screenshots showing your quiz
result (And marked questions if possible)
Question 2: Practical Task 1

Using any Python programming platform (App or online compiler),

A. Create a python program to display your name, grade and section.

B. Take a screenshot of the Python code and the output, paste it below.
C. Identify/label the editor, console and output sections

[This provides evidence for PC 1.10 and PC1.11]
