Day 29: Python Program to Reverse of a Number

 

def reverse_a_number(number):

     reversed_a_number = int(str(number)[::-1])

    return reversed_a_number

number = int(input("Enter a number:"))

reversed_a_num = reverse_a_number(number)

print(f"The reverse of {number} is {reversed_a_num}.")

Code Explanation:

1. Function Definition:

def reverse_a_number(number):

This defines a function named reverse_a_number which takes a single parameter, number. The function is designed to reverse this number when called.

2. Reversing the Number:

reversed_a_number = int(str(number)[::-1])

str(number) converts the input number into a string.

[::-1] is a Python slice that reverses the string. This works by starting at the end of the string and moving backwards.

int(...) converts the reversed string back into an integer. This ensures the reversed number is treated as a number and not as a string. If the number has leading zeros after the reversal, they are removed because integer representation doesn't allow leading zeros.

Example:

If number = 123, str(123) becomes '123'. Reversing it with [::-1] gives '321'. Then, int('321') gives the integer 321.

3. Returning the Reversed Number:

return reversed_a_number

The function returns the reversed number.

4. Taking User Input:

number = int(input("Enter a number:"))

This line asks the user to input a number. The input() function reads the user input as a string, and int() is used to convert the input to an integer.

5. Calling the Function:

reversed_a_num = reverse_a_number(number)

Here, the reverse_a_number function is called with the number inputted by the user. The result is stored in the variable reversed_a_num.

6. Printing the Result:

print(f"The reverse of {number} is {reversed_a_num}.")

Finally, the result is printed in a formatted string. This outputs the original number and its reversed version.

Python Coding challenge - Day 284| What is the output of the following Python Code?

 

 Code Explanation:

1. Class Definition

class MyClass:

A class named MyClass is defined. Classes in Python are blueprints for creating objects, but they can also contain methods that can be called without creating an instance of the class.

2. @classmethod Decorator

@classmethod

def hello(cls): 

The @classmethod decorator makes the method hello a class method.

Class methods:

Take the class itself as the first argument, which is conventionally named cls.

Can be called directly on the class without requiring an instance.

Here, cls refers to the class MyClass.

3. The Method Implementation

print(f"Hello from {cls.__name__}")

Inside the hello method:

The cls parameter gives access to the class object.

cls.__name__ retrieves the name of the class (MyClass in this case).

The print statement outputs a message using the class name.

4. Calling the Class Method

MyClass.hello()

The class method hello is called directly on the class MyClass, without creating an instance.

The cls parameter inside the method refers to MyClass.

Output:

Hello from MyClass

Python Coding challenge - Day 283| What is the output of the following Python Code?

 

Code Explanation:

1. List Definition

x = [1, 2, 3]

A list x is defined with three elements: [1, 2, 3].

List indexing in Python starts at 0. So:

x[0] is 1

x[1] is 2

x[2] is 3

2. Using the pop() Method

y = x.pop(1)

The pop() method removes and returns an element from the list at the specified index.

Here, 1 is passed as the argument, meaning the element at index 1 (the second element, 2) is removed from the list x.

After x.pop(1), the following happens:

The value 2 is removed from the list.

The updated list becomes [1, 3].

The removed value (2) is returned by pop() and assigned to the variable y.

3. Printing the Result

print(y)

The value of y (which is 2) is printed to the console.

Final Output:

2

Python Coding challenge - Day 282| What is the output of the following Python Code?

 

Code Explanation:

1. The for Loop

for i in range(3):

The range(3) function generates a sequence of numbers starting from 0 up to, but not including, 3. The sequence is: [0, 1, 2].

The for loop iterates over each number in this sequence:

On the first iteration, i is 0.

On the second iteration, i is 1.

On the third iteration, i is 2.

2. The print() Function with end Parameter

print(i, end=", ")

The print() function is used to display output.

Normally, print() adds a newline (\n) after each call. However, the end parameter allows you to specify a custom string to append instead of the default newline.

Here, end=", " means a comma followed by a space (", ") is appended to the output instead of moving to the next line.

3. Output Construction

The loop executes print(i, end=", ") for each value of i:

On the first iteration: i = 0, so 0, is printed.

On the second iteration: i = 1, so 1, is appended.

On the third iteration: i = 2, so 2, is appended.

Final Output:

0, 1, 2,

Python Coding challenge - Day 281| What is the output of the following Python Code?

 

Code Explanation:

def multiply(x, y=2):

    return x * y

print(multiply(3))

Explanation:

1. Function Definition with a Default Argument

def multiply(x, y=2):

    return x * y

The function multiply is defined with two parameters:

x: This is a required parameter that must be provided when the function is called.

y: This is an optional parameter with a default value of 2. If no value is provided for y during the function call, it defaults to 2.

The function returns the product of x and y.

2. Function Call

print(multiply(3))

Here, the function multiply is called with only one argument: 3. This value is assigned to x.

Since no value is provided for y, it uses its default value of 2.

The calculation inside the function becomes:

3 * 2 = 6

3. Output

The function returns 6, which is passed to the print function.

Final Output:

6

Python Coding challenge - Day 280| What is the output of the following Python Code?

 

Explanation:

1. Defining the Function

def square(n): 

    return n ** 2

A function named square is defined. It takes one argument, n.

The function returns the square of n (i.e., n ** 2).

2. Using map()

result = map(square, [1, 2, 3])

The map() function applies a given function (here, square) to each item in an iterable (here, the list [1, 2, 3]).

The square function is called for each element in the list:

For 1: square(1) → 1 ** 2 → 1

For 2: square(2) → 2 ** 2 → 4

For 3: square(3) → 3 ** 2 → 9

The map() function returns a map object, which is an iterator that contains the results (1, 4, 9).

3. Converting to a List

print(list(result))

The map object is converted into a list using list(result), which materializes the results of the map() operation.

Final Output:

[1, 4, 9]

Python Coding challenge - Day 5| What is the output of the following Python Code?

 

Explanation:

Step 1: Defining the Function

The function subtract(a, b) takes two arguments, a and b, and returns the result of a - b.

Step 2: Understanding the Nested Function Call

The key to understanding this code is evaluating the inner function call first.

Inner Function Call:

subtract(4, 2)

Here, a = 4 and b = 2.

The function returns:

4 - 2 = 2

Outer Function Call:

Now substitute the result of the inner call (2) into the outer function call:

subtract(7, 2)

Here, a = 7 and b = 2.

The function returns:

7 - 2 = 5

Step 3: Storing and Printing the Result

The result of the entire expression, 5, is stored in the variable result:

result = 5

print(result)  
Final Output:

Output: 5

Python Coding challenge - Day 4| What is the output of the following Python Code?

 

Explanation:

1. Creating the Set my_set

my_set = {1, 2, 3} creates a set with the elements {1, 2, 3}.

A set in Python is a collection of unique, unordered elements. Duplicate elements are not allowed.

2. Using the union Method

my_set.union({3, 4, 5}) combines all the unique elements from my_set and the set {3, 4, 5} into a new set.

The union() method does not modify the original set (my_set) but returns a new set containing the combined unique elements.

3. Combining Sets

my_set contains {1, 2, 3}.

The input to union is {3, 4, 5}.

The union of these two sets includes all unique elements:

{1, 2, 3, 4, 5}

Notice that 3 is present in both sets, but since sets do not allow duplicates, it appears only once.

4. Printing the Result

print(result) outputs:

{1, 2, 3, 4, 5}

The order of elements in the printed result may vary because sets in Python are unordered.

Final Output:

{1, 2, 3, 4, 5}

Python Coding Challange - Question With Answer

 

a = 5
b = -a
c = ~a
print(a, b, c)

What will the values of a, b, and c be after executing the code?

(a) a = 5, b = -5, c = -6

(b) a = 5, b = -5, c = 4

(c) a = 5, b = 5, c = -6

(d) a = 5, b = -5, c = 6

Step-by-Step Explanation:

1. Variable a:

   • a = 5:
   • a is assigned the integer value 5.

2. Variable b:

   • b = -a:
The - (unary minus) operator negates the value of a.
     • Ifa = 5, then b = -5.

3. Variable c:

   • c = ~a:   
                          
             The ~ (bitwise NOT) operator inverts all the bits of the number in its binary                           representation.

     • In binary, 5 is represented as 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000101 (32-bit signed integer).
     • The ~ operator flips all bits:
       11111111 11111111 11111111 11111010.
     • This is a two's complement representation of -6.

     So, ~5 = -(5 + 1) = -6.

4. Output: The print statement outputs the values of a, b, and c:
   
   print(a, b, c)
   
   Result:
   
   5 -5 -6

Python Coding challenge - Day 280| What is the output of the following Python Code?

 Step-by-Step Explanation:

Function Definition:

def square(n): 

    return n ** 2

A function named square is defined.

It takes one parameter, n.

The function returns the square of n (n ** 2).

Using map:

result = map(square, [1, 2, 3])

The map() function applies a specified function (square in this case) to each item in an iterable ([1, 2, 3]).

The result of map() is an iterator, which lazily applies the square function to each element in the list.

Execution of map(square, [1, 2, 3]):

Resulting iterator contains the values: 1, 4, 9.

Converting the Iterator to a List:

print(list(result))

The list() function is used to convert the iterator returned by map() into a list.

The resulting list: [1, 4, 9].

The print() function then outputs this list.

Final Output:

[1, 4, 9]

Python Coding challenge - Day 279| What is the output of the following Python Code?

 

Step-by-Step Explanation:

Purpose of try and except:

Python uses try and except blocks to handle exceptions (runtime errors) gracefully.

When code inside the try block raises an exception, the program's execution jumps to the corresponding except block to handle it.

This prevents the program from crashing and allows it to handle errors in a controlled way.

Division by Zero:

x = 5 / 0

Inside the try block, the code attempts to divide 5 by 0.

Division by zero is not allowed in Python, so it raises a ZeroDivisionError exception.

Handling the Exception:

except ZeroDivisionError:

    print("Cannot divide by zero!")

When the ZeroDivisionError is raised, the program execution jumps to the except block.

Inside the except block, a message is printed: "Cannot divide by zero!".

Program Flow:

The program does not crash because the exception is handled.

Once the except block is executed, the program continues (if there are additional statements after this block).

Final Output:

Cannot divide by zero!

Python Coding challenge - Day 278| What is the output of the following Python Code?

 

Step-by-Step Explanation:

List Definition:

nums = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

A list named nums is defined containing integers from 1 to 5.

List Comprehension:

result = [n for n in nums if n % 2 == 0]

This is a list comprehension that creates a new list based on a condition.

Syntax: [expression for item in iterable if condition]

In this case:

n is each element in the list nums.

The condition n % 2 == 0 checks if n is divisible by 2 (i.e., if n is an even number).

Only elements in nums that satisfy this condition are included in the new list result.

Execution:

1 % 2 == 0 → False → Not included.

2 % 2 == 0 → True → Included.

3 % 2 == 0 → False → Not included.

4 % 2 == 0 → True → Included.

5 % 2 == 0 → False → Not included.

Resulting list: [2, 4].

Print Statement:

print(result)

The print() function outputs the value of result.

Final Output:

[2, 4]

Python Coding challenge - Day 277| What is the output of the following Python Code?

Step-by-Step Explanation:

Dictionary Creation:

my_dict = {'a': 1, 'b': 2, 'c': 3}

A dictionary named my_dict is created.

It contains three key-value pairs:

'a': 1

'b': 2

'c': 3

Using get() Method:

my_dict.get('d', 'Not Found')

The get() method is used to retrieve the value associated with a specified key from the dictionary.

It takes two arguments:

The key to look for ('d' in this case).

A default value to return if the key does not exist in the dictionary ('Not Found').

In this code:

The key 'd' is not present in the dictionary.

The get() method returns the default value 'Not Found'.

Print Statement:

print(my_dict.get('d', 'Not Found'))

The print() function outputs the result returned by the get() method.

Final Output:

Not Found

Step-by-Step Explanation:

Function Definition:

def func(a, b=2, c=3):

    return a + b + c

A function named func is defined.

It takes three parameters:

a (required parameter).

b (optional parameter with a default value of 2).

c (optional parameter with a default value of 3).

The function returns the sum of a, b, and c.

Function Call:

print(func(5, c=10))

The function func is called with two arguments:

5 for the first parameter a.

10 for the parameter c.

The parameter b is not provided in the function call, so it uses its default value of 2.

The function call can be understood as:

func(a=5, b=2, c=10)

Execution of the Function: Inside the function, the expression a + b + c is evaluated:

a = 5

b = 2

c = 10

The calculation: 5 + 2 + 10 = 17.

Output: The function returns 17, and the print statement displays it on the console.

Final Output:

17

Python Coding Challange - Question With Answer

 

x = 55
y = 7
z = 6
print((x % y) + (x // y) * z)

Explanation : 

Calculate the modulus:
x % y = 55 % 7 = 6
(This gives the remainder when 55 is divided by 7.)

Calculate the floor division:
x // y = 55 // 7 = 7
(This gives the quotient when 55 is divided by 7, ignoring the remainder.)

Multiply the quotient by z:
(x // y) * z = 7 * 6 = 42

Add the modulus to the result:

(x % y) + ((x // y) * z) = 6 + 42 = 48

Final Output:

The result of the expression is:

48

Day 29: Python Program to Reverse of a Number

 

Line-by-Line Explanation

1. Function Definition

def reverse_a_number(number):

Defines a function named reverse_a_number that takes a single parameter called number.

This function will be used to reverse the digits of the input number.

2. Reverse the Number

   reversed_a_number = int(str(number)[::-1])

Convert number to string:

str(number): Converts the input integer number into a string. For example, if number = 123, this would become the string "123".

Reverse the string:

[::-1]: This slicing operation reverses the string. It works by starting at the end of the string and working backwards.

Convert the reversed string back into an integer:

int(...): Converts the reversed string back into an integer type.

Assign to a variable:

The reversed number is stored in the variable reversed_a_number.

3. Return the Reversed Number

    return reversed_a_number

The function returns the reversed number (converted back into an integer) to wherever the function is called.

4. Input from the User

number = int(input("Enter a number:"))

input("Enter a number:"):

Displays the prompt "Enter a number:" to the user.

Convert the input string into an integer:

int(input(...)): Converts the user's input (which is initially a string) into an integer type.

Store the integer in the variable number.

5. Call the Function

reversed_a_num = reverse_a_number(number)

The reverse_a_number() function is called with the user-provided input (number) as an argument.

The result (the reversed number) is stored in the variable reversed_a_num.

6. Print the Result

print(f"The reverse of {number} is {reversed_a_num}.")

f-string for string formatting:

f"The reverse of {number} is {reversed_a_num}." dynamically inserts the original number and its reversed counterpart into the output string.

{number}: Displays the original number entered by the user.

{reversed_a_num}: Displays the reversed number computed by the function.

The reverse of 123 is 321.

Day 25 : Python Program to find the prime factor of a number

 

def prime_factors(n):

    factors = []

    while n % 2 == 0:

        factors.append(2)

        n //= 2

    i = 3

    while i <= n:

        if n % i == 0:

            factors.append(i)

            n //= i

        else:

            i += 2  

    return factors

num = int(input("Enter a number: "))

factors = prime_factors(num)

print(f"Prime factors of {num} are: {factors}")

Code Explanation:

1. Function Definition

def prime_factors(n):

    factors = []

A function named prime_factors is defined to calculate the prime factors of a number n.

An empty list factors is initialized to store the prime factors.

2. Handle Factor of 2 (Even Prime)

while n % 2 == 0:

    factors.append(2)

    n //= 2

This loop continuously divides n by 2 as long as it is divisible by 2.

Each time n is divisible by 2:

2 is added to the factors list.

n is updated to n // 2 (integer division).

After this step, n becomes an odd number because all factors of 2 are removed.

3. Handle Odd Factors

i = 3

while i <= n:

A variable i is initialized to 3 to check for odd factors.

The loop runs as long as i is less than or equal to n.

if n % i == 0:

    factors.append(i)

    n //= i

Inside the loop:

If n is divisible by i, it adds i to the factors list and updates n to n // i.

This process removes all occurrences of the factor i.

else:

    i += 2

If n is not divisible by i, the next odd number (i + 2) is tested as a potential factor.

Only odd numbers are checked because all even factors are already removed.

4. Return the Factors

return factors

Once all factors are processed (i.e., n becomes 1), the function returns the list of prime factors.

5. User Input and Function Call

num = int(input("Enter a number: "))

The user is prompted to input an integer (num) for which the prime factors will be calculated.

factors = prime_factors(num)

print(f"Prime factors of {num} are: {factors}")

The prime_factors function is called with num as its argument.

The returned list of factors is stored in the variable factors and printed to the user.

Python Coding challenge - Day 275| What is the output of the following Python Code?

Step-by-Step Explanation:

Line 1: Function Definition

def func(a, b=[]):

This defines a function func() that takes two arguments:

a: A required parameter.

b: An optional parameter with a default value of an empty list [].

Key Point: The default argument b=[] is evaluated only once at the time of function definition, and the same list object is reused across multiple calls to the function if not explicitly provided.

Line 2: Modify List

    b.append(a) 

The method append(a) adds the value of a to the list b.

Important Note: If the list b is shared across multiple calls due to the default argument, modifications will persist between calls.

Line 3: Return the List

    return b

The function returns the list b after appending the value of a to it.

Line 4: Call the function with 1

print(func(1))

When you call func(1), the default b=[] is used (an empty list at first).

The value 1 is appended to b.

The function returns [1].

[1]

Line 5: Call the function with 2

print(func(2))

Now, the function is called with func(2). The default list b is the same list object as the one used in the previous call.

The value 2 is appended to this same list.

The returned list now becomes [1, 2].

Output:

[1, 2]

Python Coding challenge - Day 274| What is the output of the following Python Code?

Step-by-Step Explanation:

Line 1: Dictionary Comprehension

d = {x: x**2 for x in range(3)}

This is a dictionary comprehension.

Dictionary comprehensions are a concise way to create dictionaries in Python by specifying key-value pairs inside curly braces {}.

Components of the comprehension:

for x in range(3):

range(3) generates numbers from 0 to 2 (i.e., [0, 1, 2]).

The loop will iterate over these numbers: 0, 1, and 2.

x: x**2:

This specifies the key-value pair for the dictionary.

The key is x.

The value is x**2, which means the square of x.

How the comprehension works:

It will loop through the numbers 0, 1, and 2.

For each number x, it will compute x**2 and add the key-value pair to the dictionary.

Evaluating the comprehension step-by-step:

Here’s how the comprehension expands:

For x = 0:

Key = 0, Value = 0**2 = 0

Pair added: {0: 0}

For x = 1:

Key = 1, Value = 1**2 = 1

Pair added: {0: 0, 1: 1}

For x = 2:

Key = 2, Value = 2**2 = 4

Pair added: {0: 0, 1: 1, 2: 4}

Line 2: Print the dictionary

print(d)

This prints the dictionary d, which was created using the comprehension.

Output:

{0: 0, 1: 1, 2: 4}

Python Coding challenge - Day 267 | What is the output of the following Python Code?

 

Code Explanation:

my_dict = {}

my_dict[[1, 2, 3]] = "value"

print(my_dict)

Step-by-Step Explanation:

Dictionary Creation:

my_dict = {}

An empty dictionary my_dict is created. At this point, it contains no key-value pairs.

Attempt to Add a Key-Value Pair:

my_dict[[1, 2, 3]] = "value"

Here, you are trying to use a list [1, 2, 3] as a key in the dictionary.

In Python, dictionary keys must be hashable (immutable and capable of producing a consistent hash value). Lists, however, are mutable and therefore not hashable.

As a result, this operation raises a TypeError with the message:

TypeError: unhashable type: 'list'.

Print Statement:

print(my_dict)

This line is never executed because the code raises an error at the previous step.

Why Lists Cannot Be Keys:

Lists in Python are mutable, meaning their contents can change (e.g., adding/removing elements). If lists were allowed as dictionary keys, the hash value of the key could change after it was added to the dictionary, leading to unpredictable behavior.

To fix this, you could use an immutable tuple instead of a list as the key:

my_dict[(1, 2, 3)] = "value"

print(my_dict)

Output:

{(1, 2, 3): 'value'}

Final Outcome:

The original code raises a TypeError because lists are not hashable and cannot be used as dictionary keys.

Python Coding challenge - Day 268| What is the output of the following Python Code?

 Step-by-Step Explanation:

list1 = [1, 2, 3]:

A list [1, 2, 3] is created and assigned to list1.

list2 = list1:

list2 is assigned to reference the same list object as list1.

Both list1 and list2 now refer to the same object in memory.

list2.append(4):

The append(4) method modifies the list in place, adding the value 4 to the end of the list.

Since list1 and list2 refer to the same list, this change is reflected in both variables.

print(list1):

The list now contains [1, 2, 3, 4] because the modification affected the original list object.

Final Output:

[1, 2, 3, 4]

Python Coding challenge - Day 270| What is the output of the following Python Code?

Code Explanation:

1. print(True == 1)

In Python, the bool type (True and False) is a subclass of the int type.

True is internally represented as the integer 1, and False is represented as the integer 0.

The equality check True == 1 evaluates to True because they are effectively the same in Python.

Output: True

2. print(False == 0)

Similarly, False is represented as the integer 0 in Python.

The equality check False == 0 evaluates to True because they are equivalent.

Output: True

3. print(True + True)

Since True is equivalent to 1, adding True + True is the same as adding 1 + 1.

The result of this addition is 2.

Output: 2

Final Output:

True

True

2

Step-by-Step Explanation:

Line 1:

x = [1, 2, 3, 4]

A list [1, 2, 3, 4] is created and assigned to the variable x.

In Python, lists are mutable, which means their elements can be changed after creation.

Line 2:

y = x

The variable y is assigned the reference to the same list as x.

Both x and y now point to the same memory location in Python's memory.

Line 3:

y[0] = 99

This modifies the first element (index 0) of the list y. Since y is referencing the same memory location as x, this change is reflected in x as well.

So now, the list becomes [99, 2, 3, 4].

Line 4:

print(x)

The print() function outputs the current state of x.

Because y[0] = 99 also changed the first element of x, the output will show [99, 2, 3, 4].

Output:

[99, 2, 3, 4]

Python Coding challenge - Day 271| What is the output of the following Python Code?

 

Step-by-Step Explanation:

Line 1:

x = [1, 2, 3]

A list [1, 2, 3] is created and assigned to the variable x.

Line 2:

y = x

The variable y now points to the same list object as x. Both x and y reference the same memory location.

Line 3:

x = x + [4]

This creates a new list by concatenating [1, 2, 3] (the value of x) with [4].

The new list [1, 2, 3, 4] is assigned to x.

Now x references the new list [1, 2, 3, 4], while y still references the original list [1, 2, 3].

Line 4:

print(y)

Since y still points to the original list, the output is [1, 2, 3].

Output:

[1, 2, 3]

Python Coding challenge - Day 272| What is the output of the following Python Code?

 

Step-by-Step Explanation:

Line 1:

x = (1, 2, 3)

A tuple (1, 2, 3) is created and assigned to the variable x. Tuples are immutable in Python, meaning their elements cannot be changed after creation.

Line 2:

y = x

The variable y is assigned the same reference as x. At this point, both x and y point to the same memory location.

Line 3:

y += (4,)

The += operator here is used to concatenate the tuple (4,) to the tuple referenced by y.

However, tuples are immutable in Python. This means that you cannot directly modify the contents of a tuple using an operation like +=.

When you perform y += (4,), Python creates a new tuple by concatenating the original tuple (1, 2, 3) with (4,).

y is now pointing to this new tuple (1, 2, 3, 4).

Important Note: This does not modify x because tuples are immutable. x still points to the original tuple (1, 2, 3).

Line 4:

print(x)

This prints the original tuple x. Since x was never modified (because tuples are immutable), it still refers to the original value (1, 2, 3).

Output:

(1, 2, 3)

Python Coding Challange - Question With Answer

                                                                                                                                                                    

data = {'A': [1, 2], 'B': [3, 4]}
df = pd.DataFrame(data)
print(df.shape)

Explanation:

data = {'A': [1, 2], 'B': [3, 4]}

1. A dictionary named data is created with two key-value pairs:
   • • Key 'A' maps to the list [1, 2]
     • Key 'B' maps to the list [3, 4]
   • This dictionary represents column data for a table:

     
     A  B
     1  3
     2  4

---

2. df = pd.DataFrame(data)
   • A Pandas DataFrame is created from the dictionary.
   • Each key in the dictionary ('A' and 'B') becomes a column in the DataFrame.
   • The values in the lists ([1, 2] for 'A' and [3, 4] for 'B') become the rows under the respective columns.
   • The resulting DataFrame looks like this:

     
        A  B
     0   1  3
     1   2  4

---

3. print(df.shape)
   • The shape attribute of a DataFrame returns a tuple representing its dimensions:
     (number_of_rows, number_of_columns)
   • For this DataFrame:
     • Number of rows = 2 (index 0 and 1)
     • Number of columns = 2 ('A' and 'B')
   • df.shape returns (2, 2).

---

Final Output:

(2, 2)

This tells us the DataFrame has 2 rows and 2 columns.

Day 24 : Python Program to print in a range without using loop

 

def print_range(start, end):

    if start > end:

        return

    print(start)

    print_range(start + 1, end)

start = int(input("Enter the starting number: "))

end = int(input("Enter the ending number: "))

print_range(start, end)

Code Explanation:

1. Function Definition

def print_range(start, end):

A function named print_range is defined.

It takes two arguments:

start: The starting number.

end: The ending number.

2. Base Case for Recursion

if start > end:

    return

This is the base case of the recursion, which stops the function from continuing further:

If start is greater than end, the function simply returns without doing anything.

3. Print the Current Number

print(start)

If start is not greater than end, the current value of start is printed.

4. Recursive Call

print_range(start + 1, end)

After printing the current number, the function calls itself with:

start + 1: The next number in the sequence.

end: The same ending number.

This continues until the base case (start > end) is met.

5. Input from User

start = int(input("Enter the starting number: "))

end = int(input("Enter the ending number: "))

The user is prompted to input the start and end values for the range.

int(input(...)) ensures the inputs are converted to integers.

6. Call the Function

print_range(start, end)

The print_range function is called with the user-provided start and end values.

Recursive Process (How it Works)

The function prints the current value of start.

It calls itself with the next number (start + 1).

This continues until start > end, at which point the function stops

Day 23 : Python Program to Print All Odd Numbers in a given Range

 start = int(input("Enter the start of the range: "))

end = int(input("Enter the end of the range: "))

print("Odd numbers between", start, "and", end, "are:")

for num in range(start, end + 1):

    if num % 2 != 0: 

        print(num, end=" ")  

Code Explanation:

1. Prompt User for Input:

start = int(input("Enter the start of the range: "))

end = int(input("Enter the end of the range: "))

The program prompts the user to input two integers:

start: The beginning of the range.

end: The end of the range.

int(input(...)) ensures the input is converted from a string to an integer.

2. Print a Header:

print("Odd numbers between", start, "and", end, "are:")

This line prints a message specifying the range of numbers being analyzed.

3. Loop Through the Range:

for num in range(start, end + 1):

range(start, end + 1) generates all integers from start to end (inclusive).

The loop iterates through each number in this range, assigning it to the variable num.

4. Check for Odd Numbers:

if num % 2 != 0:

This checks whether num is odd:

num % 2: Computes the remainder when num is divided by 2.

!= 0: Ensures the remainder is not zero (odd numbers always leave a remainder of 1).

5. Print Odd Numbers:

print(num, end=" ")

If num is odd, it is printed on the same line.

end=" " ensures the numbers are printed with a space in between, instead of a new line after each.
