Question 50

Which of the listed actions can be applied to the following tuple? (Choose two.)

    Correct Answer: A, D

    Tuples in Python are immutable and cannot be modified after creation, so using the append method is not applicable to tuples. Attempting to access an index in an empty tuple will result in an IndexError. Creating a shallow copy of the entire tuple and deleting the entire tuple are valid actions. Therefore, the two actions that can be applied to the given empty tuple are creating a shallow copy using slicing, and deleting the tuple.

A. tup[:]: This creates a shallow copy of the entire tuple. It is a valid action for a tuple, even if the tuple is empty. The result will be a new empty tuple. B. tup.append(0): Tuples in Python are immutable, meaning their elements cannot be modified after creation. Therefore, the append method, which is used to add elements to a list, is not applicable to tuples. Attempting to use append on a tuple will result in an AttributeError. C. tup[0]: This attempts to access the element at index 0 of the tuple. However, since the tuple is empty, this will result in an IndexError because there are no elements in the tuple. D. del tup: This deletes the entire tuple. This is a valid action and will remove the tuple from memory. So, the correct options are: A. tup[:] D. del tup

AtulVSharmaOptions: AD

A & D are correct. append is not recognized for tuples and tup[0] out of array index

tanstOptions: AD

AD tup[0] - tuple index out of range

Kind of confusion as i used tup[0] and it also worked in python 3.0.
