Most Asked Python Interview Questions 1684406154

Here are the key points about tuples in Python: - Tuples are ordered, immutable sequences of elements. - Tuples are defined using parentheses, for example: my_tuple = (1, 2, 3) - Individual elements of a tuple can be accessed using indexing, like my_tuple[0] to access the first element. - Tuples can contain heterogeneous (different) data types. - Tuples allow multiple assignments, like x, y, z = (1, 2, 3). This is used to swap values of variables. - Methods like count(), index() can be used with tuples to work with elements. - Tuples take less memory than lists and are more optimized for cases

Python
Interview Questions
 Basic data types in Python:

Q.1 What are the basic data types in Python?

Ans: The basic data types in Python areG

> Integer: represents whole numbers.L

> Float: represents decimal numbers.L

> String: represents a sequence of characters.L

> Boolean: represents either True or False.L

> List: represents an ordered collection of elements.

Q.2 How do you convert a string to an integer in Python?

Ans: You can use the int() function to convert a string to an


integer. For example:

num_str = "10"

num_int = int(num_str)

1
Q.3 How do you check the data type of a variable in
Python?
Ans: You can use the ‘type()’ function to check the data
type of a variable. For example:

num = 10

print(type(num)) # Output: <class 'int'>

Q.4 What is the difference between a list and a tuple in


Python?
Ans: A list is mutable, which means you can modify its
elements, while a tuple is immutable, meaning its
elements cannot be changed after creation.

Q.5 How do you create an empty dictionary in Python?


Ans: You can create an empty dictionary using either the
curly braces {} or the dict() function. For example:

empty_dict = {}

empty_dict = dict()

2
 OOPS concept in Python:
Q.1 What is OOPS and how is it implemented in Python?
Ans: Object-Oriented Programming (OOPS) is a
programming paradigm that uses objects to represent
real-world entities. In Python, OOPS is implemented
through classes and objects. Classes are blueprints for
creating objects, and objects are instances of a class.

Q.2 What are the four principles of OOPS?


Ans: The four principles of OOPS are:—
œ Encapsulation: bundling of data and methods that
operate on that data within a single unit (class).—
œ Inheritance: ability of a class to inherit properties
and methods from its parent class.—
œ Polymorphism: ability of an object to take on
different forms or behaviors based on the context.—
œ Abstraction: representing essential features and
hiding unnecessary details to simplify the complexity.

3
Q.3 What is method overloading in Python?
Ans: Method overloading in Python refers to defining
multiple methods with the same name but different
parameters within a class. However, Python does not
support method overloading by default as it does in
languages like Java. In Python, you can achieve a similar
effect by using default arguments or using variable-
length arguments.

Q.4 What is method overriding in Python?


Ans: Method overriding in Python refers to defining a
method in a child class that already exists in its parent
class with the same name and signature. The method in
the child class overrides the method in the parent class,
providing a different implementation.

Q.5 What is the difference between a class method and an


instance method in Python?
Ans: A class method is a method bound to the class and not
the instance of the class. It is defined using the
@classmethod decorator and can access only class-
level variables. On the other hand, an instance method
is bound to the instance of the class and can access
both instance and class-level variables.

4
 String handling functions:
Q.1 How do you concatenate two strings in Python?
Ans: You can concatenate two strings using the + operator.
For example:

str1 = "Hello"

str2 = "World"

result = str1 + str2 # Output: "HelloWorld"

Q.2 How do you find the length of a string in Python?


Ans: You can use the len() function to find the length of a
string. For example:

str1 = "Hello World"



length = len(str1) # Output: 11

Q.3 How do you convert a string to uppercase in Python?


Ans: You can use the upper() method to convert a string to
uppercase. For example:

str1 = "hello"

uppercase_str = str1.upper() # Output: "HELLO"

5
Q.4 How do you split a string into a list of substrings in
Python?
Ans: You can use the split() method to split a string into a list
of substrings based on a delimiter. For example:

str1 = "Hello,World"

substrings = str1.split(",")

# Output: ["Hello", "World"]

Q.5 How do you check if a string contains a specific


substring in Python?
Ans: You can use the in keyword to check if a substring is
present in a string. For example:

str1 = "Hello World"



is_present = "World" in str1 # Output: True

6
 Control statements, functions
in Python:
Q.1 What are control statements in Python?
Ans: Control statements are used to control the flow of
execution in a program. Common control statements in
Python include if-else, for loops, while loops, and break/
continue statements.

Q.2 How do you write an if-else statement in Python?


Ans: An if-else statement in Python is written using the
following syntax:

if condition:

# Code block executed if the condition is
True

else:

# Code block executed if the condition is
False

7
Q.3 How do you define a function in Python?
Ans: A function in Python is defined using the def keyword.
For example:

def greet():

print("Hello, world!")

Q.4 How do you pass arguments to a function in Python?


Ans: You can pass arguments to a function by including them
inside the parentheses when defining the function. For
example:

def greet(name):

print("Hello, " + name + "!")

Q.5 How do you return a value from a function in Python?


Ans: You can use the return keyword to return a value from a
function. For example:

def add(a, b):



return a + b

8
 Special data types in Python:
Q.1 What is a set in Python?
Ans: A set in Python is an unordered collection of unique
elements. It is defined using curly braces {} or the
set() constructor. For example:

my_set = {1, 2, 3} # Output: {1, 2, 3}

Q.2 What is a dictionary in Python?


Ans: A dictionary in Python is an unordered collection of key-
value pairs. It is defined using curly braces {} or the
dict() constructor. For example:

my_dict = {"name": "John", "age": 25}

# Output: {"name": "John", "age": 25}

Q.3 How do you access values in a dictionary in Python?


Ans: You can access values in a dictionary by using the
corresponding key. For example:

my_dict = {"name": "John", "age": 25}



print(my_dict["name"]) # Output: "John"

9
Q.4 What is a tuple in Python?
Ans: A tuple in Python is an ordered and immutable collection
of elements. It is defined using parentheses () or the
tuple() constructor. For example:

my_tuple = (1, 2, 3) # Output: (1, 2, 3)

Q.5 How do you swap the values of two variables in


Python?
Ans: You can swap the values of two variables using a
temporary variable or simultaneous assignment. For
example:

a = 5

b = 10

a, b = b, a

print(a, b) # Output: 10, 5

10
 Lambda functions, list
comprehension:

Q.1 What is a lambda function in Python?

Ans: A lambda function is an anonymous function defined


using the lambda keyword. It is typically used for short,
one-line functions. For example:

square = lambda x: x**2



print(square(3)) # Output: 9

Q.2 What is list comprehension in Python?

Ans: List comprehension is a concise way to create lists in


Python based on existing lists or other iterables. It
combines the creation of a new list with a loop and
optional conditional statements. For example:

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



squared_numbers = [x**2 for x in numbers]

print(squared_numbers) # Output: [1, 4, 9, 16,
25]

11
Q.3 How do you filter elements in a list using list
comprehension?
Ans: You can filter elements in a list using list comprehension
by adding a conditional statement. For example, to filter
even numbers:

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



even_numbers = [x for x in numbers if x % 2 ==
0]

print(even_numbers) # Output: [2, 4]

Q.4 Can you have multiple if conditions in list


comprehension?
Ans: Yes, you can have multiple if conditions in list
comprehension by chaining them using the and or or
operators. For example:

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



filtered_numbers = [x for x in numbers if x % 2
== 0 and x > 2]

print(filtered_numbers) # Output: [4]

12
Q.5 How do you create a dictionary using list
comprehension in Python?
Ans: You can create a dictionary using list comprehension by
specifying key-value pairs within curly braces {}. For
example:

keys = ['a', 'b', 'c']



values = [1, 2, 3]

my_dict = {k: v for k, v in zip(keys, values)}

print(my_dict) # Output: {'a': 1, 'b': 2, 'c':
3}
