#1
inputs

# Define a function to check if a number is prime

def is_prime(n):

  if n < 2:

    return False

  for i in range(2, int(n ** 0.5) + 1):

    if n % i == 0:

      return False

  return True

# Create a list of numbers to check

numbers = [2, 5, 10, 15, 23, 30, 41]

# Check each number in the list if it's prime or not

for number in numbers:

  if is_prime(number):

    print(number, "is prime")

  else:

    print(number, "is not prime")

outputs

This code defines a function called is_prime(n) that checks if a given number n is a prime number. A prime number is a number greater than 1 that has no divisors other than 1 and itself. The function returns True if the number is prime and False otherwise.

The code then creates a list of numbers called numbers. It iterates through each number in the list and checks if it's prime using the is_prime() function. If the number is prime, it prints "{number} is prime", and if it's not prime, it prints "{number} is not prime".

#2
inputs

import random

# Define a list of words

words = ['cat', 'dog', 'fish', 'bird', 'elephant', 'monkey']

# Choose a random word from the list

chosen_word = random.choice(words)

# Print the chosen word

print("The chosen word is:", chosen_word)

# Shuffle the letters of the chosen word

shuffled_word = ''.join(random.sample(chosen_word, len(chosen_word)))

# Print the shuffled word

print("The shuffled word is:", shuffled_word)

outputs

This code does the following:

  1. Imports the random module which provides functions for generating random numbers.
  2. Defines a list of words called words, containing six animal names.
  3. Chooses a random word from the words list using random.choice() function and assigns it to the variable chosen_word.
  4. Prints the chosen word with the prefix "The chosen word is:".
  5. Shuffles the letters of the chosen word using the random.sample() function, which returns a list of unique elements from the input, and then joins the shuffled letters back together using the join() method. The shuffled word is assigned to the variable shuffled_word.
  6. Prints the shuffled word with the prefix "The shuffled word is:".
#3
inputs

a = [1,2,3]  

b = [2,3,4]

c = set(a) & set(b)

outputs

The code defines two lists, a and b, each containing three integers. The third line creates a new set c by taking the intersection of sets that were converted from these lists using the built-in set() function.

In other words, set(a) creates a new set with the unique elements of list a, which in this case is {1, 2, 3}, and set(b) creates a set with unique elements of list b, which is {2, 3, 4}.

The & operator finds the common elements (the intersection) between the two sets, so c ends up being a set containing only the value(s) that are present in both lists a and b, which in this case is {2, 3}.

So, at the end of the code execution, the variable c contains a set object that has the values 2 and 3.
