31. Which of the following is a key feature of Python’s reference counting mechanism
for memory management?
a) It prevents memory leaks by automatically freeing memory when no longer in use
b) It counts how many times an object is referenced and frees it when the reference count is zero
c) It determines the size of memory objects
d) It reduces the memory consumption by sharing objects across programs

Answer: b) It counts how many times an object is referenced and frees it when the reference count is zero

Explanation: Python uses reference counting to track how many references exist for an object. When the
count drops to zero, the memory is deallocated.

a) They do not affect memory management
b) They are automatically cleaned up by reference counting
c) They may cause memory leaks if not handled correctly
d) They improve memory efficiency

Answer: c) They may cause memory leaks if not handled correctly

Explanation: Cyclical references occur when two or more objects reference each other. Reference counting
cannot handle these situations, which can lead to memory leaks unless properly managed by garbage
collection.

efficient way?
a) LIFO (Last In, First Out)
b) Generational garbage collection
c) Static memory allocation
d) Memory mapping

Answer: b) Generational garbage collection

Explanation: Python uses generational garbage collection, where objects are categorized into generations
based on their lifespan. This approach helps efficiently manage memory by focusing garbage collection
efforts on younger objects, which are more likely to become unreachable.

within a Python program, helping manage memory efficiently.

35. What is one common way to reduce space complexity in Python?

a) Use immutable data types
b) Increase the size of the heap

prevent unnecessary memory allocation and copying, thereby optimizing memory usage.

36. Which of the following is true about garbage collection in Python?

a) Garbage collection occurs only when the program is terminated
b) Garbage collection uses reference counting to detect unreachable objects
c) The Python garbage collector can handle reference cycles
d) Python does not have a garbage collection mechanism

most Python environments?
a) Jython
b) PyPy
c) C Python
d) IronPython

a) By decreasing its reference count to zero
b) By manually deleting it from the program
c) By using memory management functions
d) By increasing its reference count

Answer: a) By decreasing its reference count to zero

Explanation: When an object’s reference count drops to zero (i.e., no references point to the object), it
becomes eligible for garbage collection.

39. What is the main issue caused by cyclical references in Python's memory
management?
a) Objects are not created properly
b) Objects cannot be accessed or used
c) The memory occupied by these objects cannot be freed by reference counting
d) The Python interpreter becomes slower

Answer: c) The memory occupied by these objects cannot be freed by reference counting

Explanation: Cyclical references can create situations where reference counting cannot properly reclaim
memory, potentially leading to memory leaks until garbage collection resolves them.

40. How can we reduce space complexity in Python?

a) Use more complex data structures
b) Use built-in functions to avoid object duplication
c) Minimize memory allocation by using external storage

a) It exits a loop
b) It skips a loop iteration
c) It is used as a placeholder for code that needs to be written later
d) It starts the next iteration of the loop

a) lst.reverse()
b) lst[::-1]
c) reverse(lst)
d) Both a and b

Answer: d) Both a and b

a) append()
b) extend()
c) insert()
d) join()

Answer: b) extend()

Explanation: The extend() method is used to append elements of another list to the end of the list.

a) List Slicing
b) List Comprehension
c) List Joining
d) List Copying

Answer: b) List Comprehension

numbers.

97. How can you find the number of elements in a list?

a) count()
b) length()
c) size()
d) len()

Answer: d) len()

Explanation: The len() function is used to find the number of elements in a list.

98. Which of the following methods can be used to remove an element by its value from a list?
a) pop()
b) del
c) remove()
d) discard()

Answer: c) remove()

Explanation: The remove() method is used to remove the first occurrence of a specific value from the list.

99. How would you access the last element of the list lst = [1, 2, 3]?
a) lst[0]
b) lst[3]
c) lst[-1]
d) lst[-3]

Answer: c) lst[-1]

Explanation: Negative indexing allows you to access elements from the end of the list, with -1 referring to the last
element.

100. What is a tuple in Python?

A) An ordered and immutable collection of items
B) An unordered collection of items
C) A mutable collection of items
D) A sequence of characters

Answer: A) An ordered and immutable collection of items

Explanation: A tuple is an ordered collection of elements, meaning the elements have a defined order, and it is
immutable, meaning it cannot be changed once created.

101. Which method is used to find the number of occurrences of an element in a tuple?
A) count()
B) index()
C) append()
D) find()

Answer: A) count()

Explanation: The count() method returns the number of times a specified element appears in a tuple.

102. Which operator can you use to check whether an element exists in a tuple?
A) in
B) is
C) ==
D) not

Answer: A) in

Explanation: The in operator checks whether an element is present in a tuple or not.

103. What will happen if you try to update an element in a tuple?

a) The tuple will be updated successfully

b) A `TypeError` will be raised
c) The element will be replaced
d) It will remove the element from the tuple

Answer: b) A `TypeError` will be raised

Explanation: Tuples are immutable, so attempting to change an element of a tuple will result in a `TypeError`.

104. How can you iterate through all the elements of a tuple?
a) Using a `for` loop
b) Using a `while` loop
c) Using a `for` loop with the `range()` function
d) All of the above

Answer: d) All of the above

Explanation: Tuples can be iterated through using any loop, including a `for` loop directly or with `range()` in case
you want to access the indices.

a) A way to create tuples using a comprehension syntax

b) A way to modify tuples using a comprehension syntax
c) A method to iterate through tuples
d) A method to convert tuples to lists

Answer: a) A way to create tuples using a comprehension syntax

Explanation: Tuple comprehension is a technique to create tuples in a concise way, similar to list comprehension, but
instead of square brackets, parentheses `()` are used.

106. Which of the following is true about the difference between tuples and lists?
a) Tuples are mutable, and lists are immutable
b) Lists are mutable, and tuples are immutable
c) Both tuples and lists are immutable
d) Both tuples and lists are mutable

Answer: b) Lists are mutable, and tuples are immutable

Explanation: Lists are mutable, meaning their elements can be changed after creation, while tuples are immutable
and cannot be modified.

a) It finds the index of the first occurrence of an element

b) It returns a tuple of indexes of all elements
c) It counts the number of occurrences of an element
d) It returns the tuple itself

Answer: A) It finds the index of the first occurrence of an element

Explanation: The `index()` method returns the index of the first occurrence of a specified element in a tuple.

110. How can you reverse a tuple in Python?

a) Using `reverse()` method
b) Using slicing `[::-1]`
