Question 20 (Beginner):
What is the output of this Python code?

x = [1, 2, 3]
y = x
y.append(4)
print(x)



A) [1, 2, 3]
B) [1, 2, 3, 4]
C) [4, 3, 2, 1]
D) Raises an error

#Python #Lists #Variables #Beginner

By: https://t.iss.one/DataScienceQ

**Correct answer: B) `[1, 2, 3, 4]`**

*Explanation:
- `y = x` creates a reference to the same list object
- Modifying `y` affects `x` because they point to the same memory location
- To create an independent copy, use
y = x.copy() or y = list(x)*
Question 21 (Beginner):
What is the correct way to check the Python version installed on your system using the command line?

A) python --version
B) python -v
C) python --v
D) python version

Question 22 (Interview-Level):
Explain the difference between deepcopy and regular assignment (=) in Python with a practical example. Then modify the example to show how deepcopy solves the problem.

import copy

# Original Problem
original = [[1, 2], [3, 4]]
shallow_copy = original.copy()
shallow_copy[0][0] = 99
print(original) # What happens here?

# Solution with deepcopy
deep_copied = copy.deepcopy(original)
deep_copied[1][0] = 77
print(original) # What happens now?


Options:
A) Both modify the original list
B) copy() creates fully independent copies
C) Shallow copy affects nested objects, deepcopy doesn't
D) deepcopy is slower but creates true copies

Question 23 (Advanced):
How does Python's "Name Mangling" (double underscore prefix) work in class attribute names, and what's its practical purpose?

class Test:
def __init__(self):
self.public = 10
self._protected = 20
self.__private = 30 # Name mangling

obj = Test()
print(dir(obj)) # What happens to __private?


Options:
A) Completely hides the attribute
B) Renames it to _Test__private
C) Makes it immutable
D) Converts it to a method
