2. Which of the following functions is used to create an array with values spaced at regular intervals?
A) np.linspace()
B) np.arange()
C) np.logspace()
D) All of the above

3. Write a function that takes a 1D NumPy array and returns a new array where each element is squared, but only if it’s greater than 5.

4. What will be printed by this code?

import numpy as np
x = np.array([1, 2, 3])
y = x.copy()
