Answer:
In Python:
(a) Concatenate strings:
joined = str1+" "+str2
(b) Two Letters in Word
:
two_letters = word[4]+word[-3]
(c) Set Numbers in Card
if num_cards < 7:
num_cards = 7
Explanation:
The code segments were written in Python
All variables were assumed to have been initialized
Solving (a): Concatenate strings:
To do this, we make use of + operator.
So, the concatenation of str1 and str2 with space in between is
str1+" "+str2
When assigned to variable joined, it becomes
joined = str1+" "+str2
Solving (b): Two Letters in Word
:
The character at the 5th position is represented with index 4 i.e. word[4]
To access a character from the end, we make use of - sign. So, the third character from the end is word[-3]
Concatenate them using + operator.
So, we have:
two_letters = word[4]+word[-3]
Solving (c): Set Numbers in Card
Here, we make use of the if condtion.
First, check if num_cards is less than 7(i.e. num_cards < 7)
If true, assign num_cards to 7
So, we have:
if num_cards < 7:
num_cards = 7
