d) repeat until
10. What is a Count-Controlled loop?
a) for loop
b) while loop
True or False
1. In Python, the selection statements are also known as decision making statements or
branching statements. True
2. The selection statements are used to select a part of the program to be executed based on
a condition. True
3. In Python, When we want to test multiple conditions we use elif statement. True
4. The index number of Strings starts from 1. False
5. lowercase() function converts the string to lowercase. False
Define the following Terms:
1. Pseudocode
Pseudocode is a tool used in designing programs.

Pseudocode means ‘not real program statements.

A simple method of showing an algorithm.

2. Flowchart
A flowchart is a type of diagram that represents a workflow or process.

3. Selection Statement
A selection statement is used to test a condition. If the condition is true, then some code is
run; if the condition is false, different code can run.
4. Count controlled loop
The count-controlled loops in python are FOR loops.

Count-controlled loops use the keyword for.

 5. Strings
In Python, a string is a sequence of characters enclosed within single quotes, double
quotes, or triple quotes.
III. Write a Python Program.
1. Write a python program to create a subroutine Max() that input two numbers, find the
largest number and output the largest number.
def Max():
n1=int(input(“enter number1:”))
n2= int(input(“enter number2:”))
if n1>n2:
print(“number1 is largest”)
else:
print(“number2 is largest”)
2. Write a python program to create a sub-routine circle() that input the radius of the circle,
calculate its area
def circle():
radius=float(input(“enter the radius:”))
area=3.14*radius*radius
print(area)
3. WAP to print multiplication table of any number using for loop
Number=int(input(“enter any number:”))
for i in range(1,11):
print(Number,”X”,i,”=”,Number*i)
4. Write python statements to convert
Convert 1000 into a string.
Mystring=str(1000)
Convert 1 into Boolean.
Mybool=bool(1)
Convert 25.4 into an integer
Myint=int(25.4)
4. WAP to output sum of numbers from 1 to 10.
sum=0
for i in range(1,11):
sum=sum+i
print(“The sum of numbers from 1 to 10 is:”, sum)
Flowcharts:
1. Draw the flowchart that Ask the user to input their feeling, Checks if feeling happy. If yes
prints “keep smiling”. If No prints “smile please”
2. Create a flowchart for following situation. Input a number. Check if number is 0. If yes,
output zero. If no, check again ,if number is greater than 0.If yes , output positive number.If
no, output negative number

3. Answer the questions based on the below flowchart.

 1. What is the identifier of the counter variable?
c
2. What is the starting value of the counter?
-10
3. What is the end condition of the loop?
C<0
4. How many times will this loop run?
10 times
5. Write the pseudocode of this flowchart
FOR C-10 TO 0
OUTPUT “STILL MINUS”
END FOR
OUTPUT “NOT MINUS”
PSEUDOCODE:
1. Write the pseudocode to Input two numbers and output the smallest number.
INPUT number1
INPUT number2
IF number1>number2 THEN
OUTPUT “number2 is smallest”
ELSE
OUTPUT “number1 is smallest”
ENDIF
2. Write pseudocode that Input a number and subtract it from 100. Output a message that
says whether the result is positive or negative.
