Answer:

None of the statement a to d can be considered accurate because for:

a) Since assignment is Non associative operator in python, addition and subtraction will be evaluated first before assignment.

b) While Exponent operator has right-to-left associativity in Python, assignment do not have associativity. therefore, both of them are not left associative

c) The operator with highest precedence is Parentheses not Exponentiation

d) The statement is false because it is correct to say "Multiplication have higher precedence than addition and subtraction" and therefore evaluated first, not unary multiplication  

Explanation:

Precedence in Python

Precedence guides the order in which operation are carried out in python.

for example

in 8 - 4 * 2, multiplication is evaluated first because it has higher precedent than subtraction.

Although, the order can be changed using Parentheses ().

example in (10 -4) * 2

values inside Parentheses will be evaluated first.

Associativity of Python operators

Associativity is the order in which an expression that has multiple operator of the same precedence is evaluated .

for example, multiplication ( * ) and floor division ( // ) have same precedence.

Almost all the operators have left-to-right associativity.

Note: operators precedence can be found online in tabular form in the Python documentation

Answer:

c. Exponentiation has the highest precedence.

Explanation:

Operator precedence decides how an expression is evaluated. For example, Multiplication has higher precedence than addition, therefore a+b*c will be evaluated as a + (b*c). (expression in bold is evaluated first, then added to a)

Option a is wrong since assignment ( = ) has the lowest precedence, therefore addition and subtraction will be evaluated first.

Option b is wrong since exponentiation is right associative.

Option d is wrong because multiplication can never be unary.

Precedence of basic python operators is listed below (Order Highest to lowest):

1) Exponentiation (**)

2) Multiplication (*) , Division (/), Modulus (%). (Same rank means equal precedence)

3) Addition (+), Subtraction(-)

Feliz [49]

Answer:

check the explanation

Explanation:

Variables when it comes to programming are used to store data to be documented and manipulated in a computer program. They can also be used for labeling stored data with a descriptive name and any other needed details, so that the programs can be comprehended more understandably by the reader and ourselves.

to solve the question, we will write this set of codes;

numberOfIncompletes = 0;

for(k = 0; k < incompletes.length; k++)

{

       if(incompletes[k] == studentID)

           numberOfIncompletes++;

}

Which is true of ASCII and Unicode?
allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

The correct options is;

Every character written in A S C I I can be represented using Unicode

Explanation:

All characters found in A S C I I can be found in Unicode such that A S C I I is a subset of Unicode whereby the meaning of the numbers from 0 to 127 are the same in both A S C I I and Unicode

The size of the A S C I I character in 8-bit A S C I I encoding is 8 bits while a Unicode U T F - 8 encoding has between 8 bits (1 byte) and 32 bits (4-bytes)

A S C I I assigns only 127 of the 255 possible numbers that can be stored in an 8-bits character, where the spare characters are then used by P C s for accented characters, therefore, it A S C I I does not define accented characters
