Question 1:
What is the difference between a population and a sample in statistics?

1. A population is a subset of a sample.
2. A sample is a subset of a population.
3. A population is a larger group, while a sample is a smaller group.
4. A sample is a group that is more representative than a population.

Correct Response: 2

Explanation: In statistics, a population is the entire group of individuals, objects, or events that we are interested in studying, while a sample is a smaller subset of the population that is selected for study. Samples are often used when it is not feasible or practical to study the entire population

Question 6:
What is a decision tree regression?

1. A type of regression that uses multiple decision trees to make predictions.

2. A method for clustering data points into groups based on their similarity.

3. A technique for dimensionality reduction by projecting the data onto a lower-dimensional space.

4. A method for estimating the causal effects of interventions using graphical models.

Correct Response: 1

Explanation: Decision tree regression is a type of regression that uses a decision tree to make predictions. The decision tree is constructed by recursively partitioning the input space into regions based on the values of the input variables, and then fitting a simple model, such as a constant or a linear function, in each region. Decision tree regression is a simple and interpretable model that can capture nonlinear relationships between the input variables and the response variable.

Question 7:
____ is a process of creating abstract classes and methods in Python.

Option 1: Inheritance
Option 2: Polymorphism
Option 3: Encapsulation

Question 8:
What is a support vector regression (SVR)?

1. A technique for identifying the most important features in a dataset.

2. A regression method that finds the hyperplane that maximizes the margin between the data points and the hyperplane.

3. A clustering algorithm for grouping similar data points together.

4. A method for estimating the causal effects of interventions using graphical models.

Correct Response: 2

Explanation: Support vector regression (SVR) is a regression method that finds the hyperplane that maximizes the margin between the data points and the hyperplane. SVR is commonly used for regression problems in which the data points have many irrelevant features and only a few relevant features. It is a type of kernel method that can be used with nonlinear data.

Question 10:
What is the difference between precision and recall?

1. Precision measures how many of the predicted positive cases are actually positive, while recall measures how many of the actual positive cases were correctly identified by the model

2. Precision measures how many of the actual positive cases were correctly identified by the model, while recall measures how many of the predicted positive cases are actually positive

3. Precision and recall are the same thing

4. Precision and recall are both measures of how well a model is able to identify positive cases

Correct Response: 1

Explanation: Precision and recall are both measures of how well a model is able to identify positive cases, but they focus on different aspects of this task. Precision measures how many of the predicted positive cases are actually positive, while recall measures how many of the actual positive cases were correctly identified by the model.

Question 11:
What is the difference between a random forest and a gradient boosting machine?

1. Random forest is an ensemble of decision trees while gradient boosting is a single decision tree

2. Random forest combines decision trees using boosting while gradient boosting combines decision trees using bagging

3. Random forest uses bagging while gradient boosting uses boosting

4. Random forest is used for regression while gradient boosting is used for classification

Correct Response: 3

Explanation: Random forest is an ensemble of decision trees that combines the results of multiple decision trees using bagging. Gradient boosting is also an ensemble of decision trees, but it combines the results of multiple decision trees using boosting.

Question 13:
What is the purpose of the iter() function when used with an iterable?

Option 1: It returns an iterator object that can be iterated over

Option 2: It checks if an object is iterable

Option 3: It converts an iterable into a generator

Option 4: It raises a StopIteration exception
 

Correct Response: 1

Explanation: The purpose of the iter() function when used with an iterable is to return an iterator object that can be iterated over. In Python, the iter() function takes an iterable as an argument and returns an iterator object that can be used to traverse the elements of the iterable. The iterator object implements the iter() and next() methods required by the iterator protocol. This allows for sequential iteration over the elements of the iterable using the next() function or a for loop.

Question 14: #python
The find() method returns -1 if a substring is not found in a string.

Option 1: TRUE

Option 2: FALSE

Option 3: nan

Option 4: nan
 
✔️ Correct Response: 1

Explanation: The statement is true. The find() method in Python returns the index of the first occurrence of a substring in a string. If the substring is not found, it returns -1. This method can be used to check if a substring exists in a string and to find its position within the string.

❓️ Question 20: #CPP
The length of an array in C++ is significant because it determines ____.

1. the number of elements that can be stored in the array

2. the memory allocated for the array

3. the maximum size of the array

4. All of the above

Correct Response: 1

Explanation: The length of an array in C++ is significant because it determines the number of elements that can be stored in the array. It affects the memory allocation for the array and defines the maximum size of the array. Understanding the length of an array is important for proper memory management, accessing array elements, and avoiding potential issues such as accessing out-of-bounds indices.
