350-401 Question #928: Real Exam Question with Answer & Explanation

Question

Refer to the exhibit. What is output by this code?

Options

• A0 5
• B0 1 2 3 4 5
• C0 1 2 3 4
• D(0,5)

Explanation

The Python code iterates through and prints a sequence of numbers from 0 up to and including 5, separated by spaces.

Common mistakes.

• A. This output implies only the start and end values were printed, not the entire sequence generated by a typical loop structure for range(0,5) or similar that includes intermediate values.
• C. This output stops at 4, suggesting the range function used was exclusive of the last value, e.g., range(5) or range(0, 5).
• D. This output format suggests a tuple (0, 5) was printed, not individual numbers in a sequence.
