27. Option c
28. Option c - (A) is true but (R) is false
Explanation
In Python, tuples are immutable or unmodifiable, so once a tuple is created, we cannot
add, change, or update its elements.
29. Option a - Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
Explanation
The statement t1 = tuple('python') creates a tuple t1 from the string 'python', resulting
in t1 being ('p', 'y', 't', 'h', 'o', 'n'). The statement t1[4] = 'z' attempts to modify the element
at index 4 of the tuple, which is not allowed because tuples are immutable in Python.
Hence, it raises an error.
30. Option c - A is true but R is false.
Explanation
The keys of dictionaries in Python must be unique and immutable. Values in a dictionary
can be accessed using their corresponding keys.
31. Output is:
Aravalli#8

FUNCTION IN PYTHON
Functions: types of function (built-in functions, functions defined in module, user defined
functions), creating user defined function, arguments and parameters, default parameters,
positional parameters, function returning value(s), flow of execution, scope of a variable
(global scope, local scope)
Let us revise
A function is a block of code that performs a specific task.
Advantages of function: Reusability of code, Reduce size of code, minimum number
of statements, minimum storage, Easy to manage and maintain
Types of functions: Built-in-functions, Functions defined in module, User defined
function
Built-in functions are the functions whose functionality is pre-defined in python like
abs(), eval(), input(), print(), pow()
Some functions are defined inside the module like load() and dump() function defined
inside the pickle module.
A function that can be defined by the user is known as user defined function.
def keyword is used to define a function.
There is a colon at the end of def line, meaning it requires block
User Defined function involved two steps:
defining
calling
Syntax for user defined function:
def <function name>( [parameter list ]):
[””function’s doc string ””]
<statement>
[<statement>]
Python supports three types of formal arguments/ parameters: Positional Arguments,
Default parameters, Keyword (or named ) Arguments
Positional Arguments: When the function call statement must match the number and
order of arguments as defined in the function definition, this is called the positional
argument matching.
A parameter having default value in the function header is known as a default
parameter.
Keyword Arguments are the named arguments with assigned values being passed in
the function call statement.
A function may or may not return one or more values.
A function that does not return a value is known as void function and returns legal
empty value None.
Functions returning value are also known as fruitful functions.
The flow of execution refers to the order in which statements are executed during a
program.
A variable declared in a function body (block) is said to have local scope. i.e. it can
be accessed within this function.
A variable declared outside of all functions/top level of segment of a program is said
to have global scope. i.e. it can be accessible in whole program and all blocks (
functions and the other blocks contained within program.

2. Which of the following items are present in the function header?
(a) Function name only (b) Parameter list only
(c) Both function name and parameter list (d) return value
3. Which of the following keyword marks the beginning of the function block?
(a) func (b) define (c) def (d) function
4. Pick one of the following statements to correctly complete the function body in the given
code snippet.
def f(number):
# Missing function body
print (f(5))
(a) return “number” (b) print(number) (c) print(“number”) (d) return number
5. Which of the following function header is correct?
(a) def f(a=1,b): (b) def f(a=1,b,c=2):
(c) def f(a=1, b=1, c=2): (d) def f(a=1,b=1,c=2,d);
6. Which of the following statements is not true for parameter passing to functions?
(a) You can pass positional arguments in any order.
(b) You can pass keyword arguments in any order.
(c) You can call a function with positional and keyword arguments.
(d) Positional arguments must be before keyword arguments in a function call
7. A variable defined outside all the functions referred to as………..
(a) A static variable (b)A global variable (c) A local variable (d) An automatic variable
8. What is the order of resolving scope of a name in a python program?
(L: Local namespace, E: Enclosing namespace, B: Built-In namespace, G: Global namespace)
(a) BGEL (b) LEGB (c) GEBL (d) LBEG
9. Assertion (A):- If the arguments in a function call statement match the number and order
of arguments as defined in the function definition, such arguments are called positional
arguments.
Reasoning (R):- During a function call, the argument list first contains default
argument(s) followed by positional argument(s).
(a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation for A
(b) Both A and R are true and R is not the correct explanation for A
(c) A is True but R is False

Q6. Is return statement optional? Compare and comment on the following two return
statements:
(i) return
(ii) return val
Answer: The return statement is optional only when the function does not return a value. A
function that returns a value must have at least one return statement.
From the given two return statements,
(i) The statement return is not returning any value. Rather it returns the control to
caller along with empty value None.
(ii) The statement return val is returning the control to caller along with the value
contained in variable val.
Q7. Divyansh, a python programmer, is working on a project which requires him to define a
function with name CalculateInterest(). He defines it as:
def CalculateInterest(Principal,Rate=.06, Time): # Code
But this code is not working, Can you help Divyansh to identify the error in the above
function and with the solution?
Answer. Yes, here non-default argument is followed by default argument which is wrong as
per python’s syntax. (while passing default arguments to a function ,all the arguments to its
right must also have default values, otherwise it will result in an error.)

Q10. What is the difference between parameter and argument?
Answer:
Parameters are temporary variable names within functions. The argument can be
thought of as the
value that is assigned to that temporary variable.
For instance, let’s consider the following simple function to calculate sum of two
numbers.
def sum(a,b):
return a+b
sum(10,20)
Here a, b are the parameters for the function ‘sum’. Arguments are used in procedure
calls, i.e., the values passed to the function at runtime.10, 20 are the arguments for the
function sum.
Q11. What is the significance of having functions in a program?
Answer: Creating functions in programs is very useful. It offers the following advantages:
(i) The program is easier to understand.
(ii) Redundant code is at one place, so making changes is easier.
(iii) Reusable functions can be put in a library in modules.
Q12. What is the difference between local variable and global variable? Also give a suitable
Python code

program.
For example, in the following code x, xcubed are global variables and n and cn are local
variables.
def cube(n): # n and cn are local variables
cn=n*n*n

FILE HANDLING – TEXT FILES
I. INTRODUCTION:
• Files are named locations on disk to store related information. They are used to
permanently store data in a non-volatile memory (e.g. hard disk).
• Since Random Access Memory (RAM) is volatile (which loses its data when
the computer is turned off), we use files for future use of the data by
permanently storing them.
• When we want to read from or write to a file, we need to open it first. When
we are done, it needs to be closed so that the resources that are tied with the file
are freed.
• Hence, in Python, a file operation takes place in the following order:
– Open a file
– Read or write (perform operation)
– Close the file
II Types of File in Python
There are two types of files in Python and each of them are explained below in detail
with examples for your easy understanding. They are:
1) Binary file 2) Text file
II. Text files in Python
• A text file is usually considered as sequence of lines. Line is a sequence of
characters (ASCII), stored on permanent storage media. Although default
character coding in python is ASCII but supports Unicode as well.
• In text file, each line is terminated by a special character, known as End of Line
(EOL). From strings we know that \n is newline character.
• At the lowest level, text file is collection of bytes. Text files are stored in human
readable form. They can also be created using any text editor.
• Text files don’t have any specific encoding and it can be opened in normal text
editor itself.
Example of Text Files:
• Web standards: html, XML, CSS, • Tabular data: csv, tsv etc.
JSON • Configuration: ini, cfg, reg etc
• Source code: c, app, js, py, java etc.
• Documents: txt, tex, RTF etc.
III. OPENING OR CREATING A NEW FILE IN PYTHON
• The method open() is used to open an existing file or creating a new file. If the
complete directory is not given then the file will be created in the directory in
which the python file is stored. The syntax for using open() method is given
below.
– Syntax:
– file_object = open( file_name, “Access Mode”, Buffering )
• The open method returns file object which can be stored in the name file object
(file-handle).
File name is a unique name in a directory. The open() function will create the file with
the specified name if it is not already exists otherwise it will open the already existing
file.
File Access Modes:
• The access mode: it is the string which tells in what mode the file should be
opened for operations. There are three different access modes are available in
python.
• Reading: Reading mode is crated only for reading the file. The pointer will be
at the beginning of the file.
• Writing: Writing mode is used for overwriting the information on existing file.
74 | P a g e
• Append: Append mode is same as the writing mode. Instead of over writing
the information this mode append the information at the end.
• Below is the list of representation of various access modes in python.
Access modes in Text Files
• ‘r' – Read Mode: Read mode is used only to read data from the file.
• ‘w' – Write Mode: This mode is used when you want to write data into the file
or modify it. Remember write mode overwrites the data present in the file.
• ‘a' – Append Mode: Append mode is used to append data to the file. Remember
data will be appended at the end of the file pointer.
• ‘r+' – Read or Write Mode: This mode is used when we want to write or read
the data from the same file.
• ‘a+' – Append or Read Mode: This mode is used when we want to read data
from the file or append the data into the same file.
Buffering:
• Buffering is the process of storing a chunk of a file in a temporary memory
until the file loads completely. In python there are different values can be given.
If the buffering is set to 0 , then the buffering is off. The buffering will be set
to 1 when we need to buffer the file.
Examples of Opening TEXT Files in Python
# open file in current directory
• f = open("test.txt“, “r”)
# specifying full path
– f = open(r“D:\temp\data.txt“, “r”) #–raw string
• f = open(“D:\\temp\\data.txt“, “r”) #-absolute path
IV. CLOSING FILES IN PYTHON
• After processing the content in a file, the file must be saved and closed. To do this
we can use another method close() for closing the file. This is an important method
to be remembered while handling files in python.
• Syntax: file_object.close()
string = "This is a String in Python"
my_file = open(my_file_name.txt,"w+",1)
my_file.write(string)
my_file.close()
print(my_file.closed)
V. READING INFORMATION IN THE FILE
• In order to read a file in python, we must open the file in read mode.
• There are three ways in which we can read the files in python.
– read([n])
– readline([n])
– readlines() – all lines returned to a list
Here, n is the number of bytes to be read.
Example 1:
my_file = open(“C:/Documents/Python/test.txt”, “r”)
print(my_file.read(5))
Output:
Hello
Here we are opening the file test.txt in a read-only mode and are
reading only the first 5 characters of the file using the
my_file.read(5) method.
Example 2:
my_file = open(“C:/Documents/Python/test.txt”, “r”)
print(my_file.read())
75 | P a g e
Output:
Hello World
Hello Python
Good Morning #Here we have not provided any argument inside
the read() function.
#Hence it will read all the content present inside
the file.
Example 3:
my_file = open(“C:/Documents/Python/test.txt”, “r”)
print(my_file.readline(2))
Output:
He
This function returns the first 2 characters of the next line.
Example 4:
my_file = open(“C:/Documents/Python/test.txt”, “r”)
print(my_file.readline())
Output:
Hello World
Using this function we can read the content of the file on a line by line basis.
Example 5:
my_file = open(“C:/Documents/Python/test.txt”, “r”)
print(my_file.readlines())
Output:
[‘Hello World\n’, ‘Hello Python\n’, ‘Good Morning’]
Here we are reading all the lines present inside the text file including the newline
characters.
Example 5: Reading a specific line from
a File Output:
line_number = 4 How are You
fo =
open(“C:/Documents/Python/test.txt”,
’r’) #In this example, we are trying to read
currentline = 1 only the 4th line from the ‘test.txt’ file
for line in fo: using a “for loop”.
if(currentline == line_number):
print(line)
break
currentline = currentline +1
VI. WRITE TO A PYTHON TEXT FILE
• In order to write data into a file, we must open the file in write mode.
• We need to be very careful while writing data into the file as it overwrites the
content present inside the file that we are writing, and all the previous data will be
erased.
• We have two methods for writing data into a file as shown below.
write(string) and writelines(list)
Example 1:
my_file = open(“C:/Documents/Python/test.txt”, “w”)
my_file.write(“Hello World”)
76 | P a g e
The above code writes the String ‘Hello World’ into the ‘test.txt’ file.
• The first line will be ‘Hello World’ and
my_file =
as we have mentioned \n character,
theo“w
pe”n)(“C:/Documents/Python/test.txt”,
cfiulersaonr dwthilel nmworviete t‘oHtehlelonPeyxttholinn’e. of the
my_file.write(“Hello World\n”)
• Remember if we don’t mention \n
my_file.write(“Hello Python”)
character, then the data will be written
continuously in the text file like ‘Hello
WorldHelloPython’
Example 3:
fruits = [“Apple\n”, “Orange\n”, “Grapes\n”, “Watermelon”]
my_file = open(“C:/Documents/Python/test.txt”, “w”)
my_file.writelines(fruits)
The above code writes a list of data into the ‘test.txt’ file simultaneously.
Append in a Python Text File:
To append data into a file we must open the file in
‘a+’ mode so that we will have access to both
the append as well as write modes.
Example 1:
my_file = open(“C:/Documents/Python/test.txt”, “a+”)
my_file.write (“Strawberry”)
The above code appends the string ‘Strawberry’ at the
end of the ‘test.txt’ file
Example 2:
my_file = open(“C:/Documents/Python/test.txt”, “a+”)
my_file.write (“\nGuava”)
The above code appends the string ‘Apple’ at the end
of
the ‘test.txt’ file in a new line
flush() function
• When we write any data to file, python hold everything in buffer (temporary
memory) and pushes it onto actual file later. If you want to force Python to write
the content of buffer onto storage, you can use flush() function.
• Python automatically flushes the files when closing them i.e. it will be implicitly
called by the close(), BUT if you want to flush before closing any file you can use
flush()
REMOVING WHITESPACES AFTER READING FROM TEXT FILE
• read() and readline() reads data from file and return it in the form of string and
readlines() returns data in the form of list.
• All these read function also read leading and trailing whitespaces, new line
characters. If we want to remove these characters you can use functions
– strip() : removes the given character from both ends.
– lstrip(): removes given character from left end
– rstrip(): removes given character from right end
File Pointer
• Every file maintains a file pointer which tells the current position in the file
where reading and writing operation will take.
• When we perform any read/write operation two things happens:
– The operation at the current position of file pointer
– File pointer advances by the specified number of bytes.

ANSWER – 2-MARK QUESTIONS
Ans1 for line in open(“file1.txt”):
print(line.strip())
Ans2 The output will be
Hello,world!
How are you?
The first line of code is opening the file in write mode,the next two line writes text t file .the
last line
opens the file and from that reference reads the file content.file() performs the same functions
as open().Thus,the file(“output.txt”)will give the references to open the file on which read() is
applied.
Ans3 The file would now contains “Bye”only because when an existing file is openend in
write mode .it
truncates the existing data in file .
Ans4 i) Text file
ii) f1.write(“abc”)
Ans5 Line1
Line3
Line 6
Line 4
Ans6 ab and a+b mode
Ans7 a) string b)string c)string d)list
Ans 8 No Output
Explanation: the f1.read() of line 2 will read entire content of file and place the file pointer at
the
end of file. for f1.read(5) it will return nothing as there are no bytes to be read from EOF and,
thus,print statement prints nothing.
Ans 9
While writing, Python writes everything into a buffer and pushes it into file at a later
time.
When flush() function is called it immediately empties the buffer and writes into the
file.
This function is called automatically when file is closed.

print(ch3)
print(f.readline())
f.close()
Output:
Friends are honest
, Friends
are best !
Explanation:
In line no. 2, f.readline() function reads first line and stores the output string in l but not printed
in the code, then it moves the pointer to next line in the file. In next statement we have
f.readline(18) which reads next 18 characters and place the cursor at the next position i.e.
comma (,) , in next statement f.read(10) reads next 10 characters and stores in ch3 variable and
then cursor moves to the next position and at last f.readline() function print() the entire line.
3. Write a function count_lines() to count and display the total number of lines from the
file. Consider above file – friends.txt.
def count_lines():
f = open("friends.txt")
cnt =0
for lines in f:
cnt+=1
lines = f.readline()
print("no. of lines:",cnt)
f.close()
4. Write a function display_oddLines() to display odd number lines from the text file.
Consider above file – friends.txt.
def display_oddLines():
f = open("friends.txt")
cnt =0
for lines in f:
83 | P a g e
cnt+=1
lines = f.readline()
if cnt%2!=0:
print(lines)
f.close()
5. Write a function cust_data() to ask user to enter their names and age to store data in
customer.txt file.
def cust_data():
name = input("Enter customer name:")
age=int(input("Enter customer age:"))
data = str([name,age])
f = open("customer.txt","w")
f.write(data)
f.close()

File Handling (Binary File)
There are two types of files:
Text Files- A file whose contents can be viewed using a text editor is called a text file. A text
file is simply a sequence of ASCII or Unicode characters. Python programs, contents written
in text editors are some of the example of text files.e.g. .txt,.rtf,.csv etc.
Binary Files-A binary file stores the data in the same way as as stored in the memory. The
.exe files,mp3 file, image files, word documents are some of the examples of binary files.we
can’t read a binary file using a text editor.e.g. .bmp,.cdr etc.
Mostly .txt,.rtf are used as extensions to text files. Can have any application defined extension.
Opening and closing of binary file is same as text file opening and closing. While opening
any binary file we have to specify ‘b’ in file opening mode.
Python has a module which does this work for us and is extremely easy to use. This module
is called pickle; it provides us with the ability to serialize and deserialize objects, i.e., to
convert objects into bitstreams which can be stored into files and later be used to
reconstruct the original objects.
pickle.dump() function is used to store the object data to the file. It takes 3 arguments.First
argument is the object that we want to store. The second argument is the file object we get
by opening the desired file in write-binary (wb) mode. And the third argument is the key-
value argument.
Pickle.load() function is used to retrieve pickled data.The steps are quite simple. We have to
use pickle.load() function to do that.
A Binary file is a file that contains information in the same format in which the information
is held in memory, ie the file content that is returned to us is raw ( with no translation or
specific encoding )
86 | P a g e
● The close( ) function breaks the link of the file-object and the file on the disk.
● A binary file can be opened in the modes ( ‘rb’, ‘wb’, ‘ab’, ‘rb+’, ‘wb+’, ‘ab+’)
● Pickle module in Python provides us, with the ability to serialize and de-serialize
objects, ie to convert objects into bitstreams which can be stored into files and later
be used to reconstruct the original objects.
● Serialization is also known as pickling.
● De-serialization is also known as un-pickling.
● Pickle module contains dump( ) function to perform pickling ie write data into a
binary file.
● Pickle module contains load( ) function to perform unpickling ie read data from a
binary file.
● Syntax of dump( ) function to write data :
dump(data_object, file_object)
Where data_object is the object that has to be written(dumped) to the file with the
file handle named file_object
● Syntax of load( ) function to write data :
store_object= load(file_object)
The pickled Python object is read (loaded) from the file having the file handle named
file_object and is stored in a new file handle called store_object.
● Read from and Write into a binary file :
Use ‘rb’ mode in the open( ) function to read binary files.
We hve read( ) and write( ) methods that works with string parameters and will not
work directly with binary files. Conversion of data at the time of reading and writing
is required.
Dump( ) method is used to write the objects in a binary file and load( ) method is
used to read data from a binary file.
● Search operation :
There is no pre-defined function available in python for searching records. It involves
reading of the binary file and then comparing each record with our given value. ( This
is the linear search process )
● Append operation :
To add/append data to a binary file, we must open a file in ‘ab’ mode. The file will
retain the previous records and append the new records at the end of the file.
● Update operation :
In order to update a binary file, the poisition of the file pointer must be known. To
check the position of the file pointer, we use the functions tell( ) and seek( )
● tell( ) function : It returns the current position of the file pointer in the file.
Syntax of tell( ) function : variable=file_object.tell( )
● seek( ) function : It changes the position of the file pointer by placing the file pointer
at the specified position in the open file.
Syntax of seek( ) function : file_object.seek( offset)

File Handling (CSV File)
CSV (Comma Separated Values) is a file format for data storage which looks like a text
file. The information is organized with one record on each line and each field is separated by
comma.
CSV File
CSV (Comma-separated values) is a common data exchange format used by the
applications to produce and consume data.
A CSV file is a simple text file where each line contains a list of values (or fields)
delimited by commas (mostly), but you will encounter CSV files where data is
delimited using tab (\t) or pipe (|) or any other character.
The first line of the CSV file represents the header containing a list of column names
in the file.
CSV file is commonly used to represent tabular data
See the following table
98 | P a g e
Name Class Section
Amit X A
Sumit XI B
Ashish XII C
If the values in the table contain comma(,) like below in column Address
Name Class Address
Amit X Fr. Agnel School, Delhi
Sumit XI Fr. Agnel School, Delhi
Then in CSV it will be stored like below (Values containing comma will be enclosed in
double quotes)
1. reader() function : This function help us to read the csv file. This function takes a
file object and returns a _csv.reader object that can be used to iterate over the contents
of a CSV file.
How to read entire data from data.csv file?
Let we try to read the following file ie “data.csv”
data.csv
CODING OUTPUT
import csv [‘Name’ , ‘Class’ , ‘Subject’]
f = open(“data.csv”, ‘r’) [‘Amit’ , ‘XII’ , ‘ CS’]
row = csv.reader(f) [‘Sumit’ , ‘X’ , ‘IP’]
for i in row : Notice that each line in the CSV file is returned as a list of
print(i) strings
f.close()
99 | P a g e
CODING OUTPUT
import csv
f = open(“data.csv”, ‘r’) Returns the memory address where csv.reader object is
row = csv.reader(f) stored
print(row)
f.close()
import csv
f = open(“data.csv”, ‘r’) [‘Sumit’ , ‘IP’ ] [‘Name’ , ‘Class’ , ‘Subject’]
row = csv.reader(f) [‘Amit’ , ‘XII’ , ‘CS’]
next(row) [‘Sumit’ , ‘X’ , ‘IP’]
next(row)
for i in row :
print(i[0] , i[2])
f.close()
If we use the next() function two times
then it will skip two lines from
beginning
If there is any other delimiter other than comma like in the following file
100 | P a g e
CODING OUTPUT
import csv [‘id’ , ‘name’ , ’email’ , ‘salary’]
f = open(“data.csv”, ‘r’) [‘1’ , ‘Amit’ , ‘amit@mail.com’ , ‘25000’]
row = csv.reader(f, delimiter = ‘l’) [‘2’ , ‘Sumit’ , ‘sumit@mail.com’ , ‘30000’]
for i in row : [‘3’ , ‘Ashu’ , ‘ashu@mail.com’ , ‘40000’]
print(i)
f.close()
2. writer() function : This function help us to write data in a csv file. It accepts the
same argument as the reader() function but returns a writer object (i.e _csv.writer)
There are two main methods used in writing in csv file
1. writerow()
2. writerows()
using writerow():
CODING DATA.CSV
import csv Name , Class
f = open(“data.csv”, ‘w’) ‘Amit’ , ‘XII’
wr = csv.writer(f)
wr.writerow([‘Name’ , ‘Class’])
wr.writerow([‘Amit’ , ‘XII’])
f.close( )
using writerows():
CODING DATA.CSV
import csv Name, Class, Subject
fields = [‘Name’ , ‘Class’ , ‘Subject’] Amit, XII, CS
rows = [[“Amit” , ‘XII’ , ‘CS’] , Sumit, X, IP
[‘Sumit’ , ‘X’ , ‘IP’] , Ashu, XI, CS
[‘Ashu’ , ‘XI’ , ‘CS’]]
f = open(“data.csv” , ‘w’ , newline = ‘ ‘)
wr = csv.writer(f)
wr.writerow(fields)
wr.writerows(rows)
f.close()
This CSV file has no header. So we have to provide field names via
the fieldnames parameter
CODING
101 | P a g e
import csv Amit, XII, CS Syntex:
wr_obj.writerows(field_name)
f = open(“data.csv” , ‘r’) Sumit, X, IP
row = csv.DictReader(f, fieldnames = [‘Name’
Ashu, XI,, ‘Class’
CS , ‘Subject’])
for i in row:
print(i)
f.close()
writer() Function of CSV File:
OUTPUT 1. writerow()- print
{‘Name’ : ‘Amit, ‘Class’ : ‘XII’ , ‘Subject’ ‘CS’}
record:line by line Function of CSV File:
{‘Name’ : ‘Sumit, ‘Class’ : ‘X’ , ‘Subject’ : ‘IP’}
Syntex: 1. reader()
2. writer()
{‘Name’ : ‘Ashu, ‘Class’ : ‘XI’ , ‘Subject’ : ‘CS’}
wr_obj.writerow(row_name
3. DictReader()

APPLICATIONS OF STACK :
1. Reverse a word / line : In a Stack, the elements can be read from TOP end, ie the last
element. Hence it is used to reverse a word or line.
2. The Compiler uses Stack to store the previous state of a program, when a function is
called(activated) . ( During Recursion / Recursive funcrion calls)
3. Undo Mechanism in Text Editors.
First of all , let us solve some basic questions :
A) Fill in the blanks : ( These are 1 marks questions )
i) means organization of data. (Ans: Data structure)
ii) Stack is also known as ...............list. (Ans: LIFO)
iii) Insertion of an element in a Stack is known as.......... (Ans: push )
iv) Deletion of an element from top of Stack is known as ....... (Ans: pop)
106 | P a g e
v) LIFO stands for ........... (Ans: Last-In-First-Out)
B) State whether the statements are True or False : ( These are 1 marks questions )
i) Insertion and Deletion from a Stack, takes place only from TOP. (Ans: True)
ii) If a Stack is Empty, it is termed as STACK OVERFLOW. (Ans: False)
iii) Removal of an element from top of stack is termed as POP. (Ans:True)
iv) Undo mechanism of text editors is an application of Stack. (Ans: True)
v) Insertion of an element to the top of stack is termed as PUSH. (Ans: True)

Answer Keys
1. c) Table
2. a) Create
3. c) Foreign Key
4. Cardinality
5. Degree
6. b) Primary Key Constraint
7. d) Username, Password, Hostname, Database Name
8. c) <connection>. commit()
9. b) cursor.fetchall()
10. a) Row
11. b) Structured Query Language
12. c) Alter
13. b) select * from student where sname like “%ta%”;
14. a)Delete
15. c)select * from employee whose salary is null;
16. a) Sum()
17. B
18. B
19. a) CHAR stores data in a fixed-length field, while
VARCHAR stores data in a variable-length field
CHAR can be slightly faster for fixed-length strings
because the database knows the exact size of each entry.
It doesn't need to track the string length for each value.
VARCHAR is more efficient in terms of storage when
the string lengths vary significantly, but it may require
extra overhead for managing the length of the variable-
length entries.
b) Degree: Number of columns/ fields/ attributes in a
relation
Cardinality: Number of rows/ tuples/ records in a relation
Or
a) Candidate Key: A set of one or more columns that
can uniquely identify a record in a table. A table can have
multiple candidate keys.
Primary Key: A special candidate key that is chosen to
uniquely identify records in the table. There can only be
one primary key per table.
b) Primary Key: The unique key selected to identify
records in a table; it enforces uniqueness and does not
134 | P a g e
allow null values. There is only one primary key
Alternate Key: A candidate key that was not selected as
the primary key but could still uniquely identify records in
the table. There can be multiple alternate keys.
20. a) DML:
Does not affect the database schema; it only
works with the data stored in the tables.
Example: INSERT INTO Employees VALUES ('John',
'Smith') (adds data but doesn’t alter table
structure).
DDL:
Affects the database schema; it changes the
structure of tables or other database objects.
Example: CREATE TABLE Employees (ID INT,
Name VARCHAR(100)) (creates a new table
structure).
b) Data Redundancy refers to the unnecessary
duplication of data within a database or system. It
occurs when the same piece of information is stored in
multiple places, leading to inefficiency in storage and
potential inconsistency.
Or
a) ALTER: Used to modify the structure of a database
object (like a table), such as adding, deleting, or
modifying columns, or changing constraints.
UPDATE: Used to modify the data within existing
records in a table
b) Data Inconsistency refers to a situation where the
same piece of data stored in multiple places in a system
or database does not match
21. i) Unique
ii) Not null
22. DDL: Alter, Drop
DML: Update, Delete
23. Select DeptCode, max(salary) from employee group by
DeptCode;
24. Candidate Key: A set of columns that can uniquely
identify records (e.g., StudentID, PhoneNo).
Primary Key: The selected candidate key to uniquely
identify records, cannot be null (e.g., StudentID).
Alternate Key: Candidate keys not chosen as the
primary key (e.g., PhoneNo).
Foreign Key: References the primary key in another
135 | P a g e
table to establish relationships
Or
Degree = Number of attributes (columns) in a table.
Cardinality = Number of tuples (rows) in a table
25. Reduces Data Redundancy: Centralizes data
storage to avoid duplication.
Ensures Data Integrity: Enforces rules for accurate
and consistent data.
Improves Data Security: Provides access control
and user authentication.
Enhances Data Management: Optimizes data
retrieval, updating, and deletion
Or
DML : Select, insert, update, delete
DDL : Create, alter, drop, rename

28. fetchall() : Returns a sequence of all the rows that have
not been fetched.
fetchmany() : Returns a sequence of rows specified by n
fetchone() : Returns the next row of the query result set
as a sequence or none when the result is exhaused
29. Equi-Join: Joins tables using a specific column with the
= operator (explicit join condition).
Natural Join: Joins tables based on columns with the
same name and matching data types (implicitly uses
common columns for the join).
