In order to store values in terms of key and value we use what core datatype
- A.
List
- B.
Tuple
- C.
Class
- D.

- A.
Too hot
- B.
Too cold
- C.
just right
- D.
Too hot too cold just right
Correct Answer
C. just rightExplanation
The code will display "just right" because the temperature variable is set to 50, which is not greater than or equal to 100. Therefore, the if condition is not met and the code moves to the elif condition. Since there are no conditions specified for the elif statement, it will always be true and execute the following print statement, which is "just right".Rate this question:

________ is a data structure to store data in a sequential order.
- A.
A list
- B.
A set
- C.
A dictionary
- D.
A heap
Correct Answer
A. A listExplanation
A list is a data structure that allows storing data in a sequential order. It is a collection of elements where each element has a specific position or index. The elements in a list can be accessed and manipulated individually by their index values. Unlike sets and dictionaries, which do not have a specific order, a list maintains the order in which the elements are added. A heap, on the other hand, is a specialized tree-based data structure used to efficiently retrieve the maximum or minimum element. Therefore, a list is the correct answer for storing data in a sequential order.Rate this question:
