  • Q7. What are python Modules?
  • Ans. 

    Python modules are files containing Python code that can be imported and used in other Python programs.

    • Modules are used to organize code into reusable and maintainable structures.

    • Python has a large standard library of modules that can be imported and used.

    • Third-party modules can also be installed and used in Python programs.

    • Modul...

  • Answered by AI
  • Q8. What are python generators?
  • Ans. 

    Python generators are functions that return an iterator and generate values on the fly.

    • Generators use the 'yield' keyword to return values one at a time.

    • They can be used to generate an infinite sequence of values.

    • Generators are memory efficient as they generate values on the fly instead of storing them in memory.

    • Example: def my_generator(): yield 1; yield 2; yield 3;

    • Example: for num in my_generator(): print(num)

  • Answered by AI
  • Q9. What are python iterators?
  • Ans. 

    Python iterators are objects that allow iteration over a collection of elements.

    • Iterators are used to loop through a collection of elements, one at a time.

    • They implement the __iter__() and __next__() methods.

    • The __iter__() method returns the iterator object and the __next__() method returns the next element in the sequence.

    • Iterators can be created using iter() function or by defining a class that implements the require...

  • Answered by AI
  • Q10. Which constructors are used in python?
  • Ans. 

    Python has two types of constructors - default and parameterized constructors.

    • Default constructor has no parameters and is automatically called when an object is created.

    • Parameterized constructor takes parameters and is used to initialize the object's attributes.

    • Example of default constructor: def __init__(self):

    • Example of parameterized constructor: def __init__(self, name, age):

  • Answered by AI
  • Q11. Do python has any destructor? If yes then what is that destructor?
  • Ans. 

    Yes, Python has a destructor called __del__().

    • The __del__() method is called when an object is about to be destroyed.

    • It is used to perform cleanup operations before the object is destroyed.

    • The __del__() method is not guaranteed to be called, so it should not be relied upon for critical cleanup operations.

  • Answered by AI
  • Q12. How is memory managed in python?
  • Ans. 

    Python uses automatic memory management through garbage collection.

    • Python uses reference counting to keep track of memory usage.

    • Objects with no references are automatically deleted by the garbage collector.

    • Python also has a built-in module called 'gc' for manual garbage collection.

    • Memory leaks can occur if circular references are not handled properly.

  • Answered by AI
  • Q13. How will you delete a file in python module using a python code?
  • Ans. 

    To delete a file in Python module, use the os module's remove() method.

    • Import the os module

    • Use the remove() method to delete the file

    • Specify the file path in the remove() method

    • Example: import os; os.remove('file.txt')

  • Answered by AI

  • Ans. 

    Variables are containers that store values while literals are values themselves.

    • Variables can be changed while literals cannot

  • Answered by AI
  • Q18. What is global & local variable in python?
  • Ans. 

    Global variables are accessible throughout the program, while local variables are only accessible within a specific function.

    • Global variables are declared outside of any function and can be accessed from any part of the program.

    • Local variables are declared within a function and can only be accessed within that function.

    • If a local variable has the same name as a global variable, the local variable takes precedence withi...

  • Q19. What is slicing in Python?
  • Ans. 

    Slicing is a way to extract a portion of a sequence (string, list, tuple) in Python.

    • Slicing is done using the colon (:) operator.

    • The syntax for slicing is [start:stop:step].

    • start is the index where the slice starts (inclusive), stop is the index where the slice ends (exclusive), and step is the size of the jump between indices.

    • If start or stop is not specified, it defaults to the beginning or end of the sequence.

    • If ste...

  • Q20. What is the split & join method?
  • Ans. 

    Split method splits a string into an array of substrings based on a specified separator. Join method joins the elements of an array into a string.

    • Split method returns an array of strings.

    • Join method concatenates the elements of an array into a string.

    • Both methods are used to manipulate strings in JavaScript.

    • Example: var str = 'apple,banana,orange'; var arr = str.split(','); var newStr = arr.join('-');

    • Output: arr = ['ap...

  • Q22. What are the building blocks of object oriented programming?
  • Ans. 

    The building blocks of object oriented programming are classes, objects, inheritance, encapsulation, and polymorphism.

    • Classes are templates for creating objects

    • Objects are instances of classes

    • Inheritance allows classes to inherit properties and methods from parent classes

    • Encapsulation is the practice of hiding implementation details from users

    • Polymorphism allows objects to take on multiple forms

  • Answered by AI
  • Q23. What is pass by value & pass by reference?
  • Ans. 

    Pass by value copies the value of a variable, while pass by reference copies the address of the variable.

    • Pass by value creates a new copy of the variable, while pass by reference uses the original variable.

    • Pass by value is used for primitive data types, while pass by reference is used for objects and arrays.

    • Pass by value is faster and safer, while pass by reference allows for more efficient memory usage.

    • Pass by value c...

  • Q24. What is operator overloading & function overloading?
  • Ans. 

    Operator overloading is the ability to redefine operators for user-defined types. Function overloading is the ability to define multiple functions with the same name but different parameters.

    • Operator overloading allows user-defined types to use operators such as +, -, *, /, etc.

    • Function overloading allows multiple functions to have the same name but different parameters.

    • Operator overloading and function overloading bot...

    Joins in SQL are used to combine data from two or more tables based on a related column.

    • Inner join returns only the matching rows from both tables.

    • Left join returns all the rows from the left table and matching rows from the right table.

    • Right join returns all the rows from the right table and matching rows from the left table.

  • Q26. Then some SQL queries
  • Q27. & finally what is indexs in SQL? What are there types?
  • Ans. 

    Indexes in SQL are used to improve query performance by allowing faster data retrieval.

    • Indexes are data structures that store a small portion of the table data in an easily searchable format.

    • Types of indexes include clustered, non-clustered, unique, and full-text indexes.

    • Clustered indexes determine the physical order of data in a table, while non-clustered indexes create a separate structure for faster searching.
