Given a list of words, write a code snippet to print only those words that do NOT contain the letter 'a'. Which code correctly uses membership operators to do this?
Afor word in words: if 'a' in word: print(word)
Bfor word in words: if 'a' not in word: print(word)
Cfor word in words: if word not in 'a': print(word)
Dfor word in words: if 'a' not word: print(word)
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Understand the requirement

    We want to print words that do NOT have 'a' in them.
  2. Step 2: Check each option's logic

    for word in words: if 'a' not in word: print(word) correctly uses 'a' not in word to filter words without 'a'. Others have syntax or logic errors.
  3. Final Answer:

    for word in words:\n if 'a' not in word:\n print(word) -> Option B
  4. Quick Check:

    Use 'not in' to exclude items [OK]
Quick Trick: Use 'not in' inside loops to filter items [OK]
Common Mistakes:
MISTAKES
  • Using 'in' instead of 'not in'
  • Wrong syntax like missing 'in'
  • Checking membership on wrong variable
