💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using '<' instead of '>' changes the condition meaning.

Using '==' checks equality, not greater than.

The ternary expression checks if x > 10. If true, it assigns 'Yes', else 'No'.

Complete the code to assign 'Even' if num is divisible by 2, else 'Odd'.

Python

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using '//' which is floor division, not remainder.

Using '+' or '**' which are not related to divisibility.

The modulus operator '%' gives the remainder. If num % 2 == 0, num is even.

Fix the error in the ternary expression to assign 'Adult' if age is 18 or more, else 'Minor'.

Python

status = 'Adult' if age [1] 18 else 'Minor'

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

A==

B<=

C!=

D>=

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using '<=' reverses the condition meaning.

Using '==' only checks if age equals 18, not more.

The correct comparison operator is '>=' to check if age is 18 or more.

Fill both blanks to create a ternary expression that assigns 'Pass' if score is 50 or more, else 'Fail'.

Python

result = 'Pass' if score [1] 50 else [2]

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

A>=

B'Fail'

D<

Attempts:

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using '<' in the condition reverses the logic.

Not using quotes around 'Fail' causes syntax errors.

The condition uses '>=' to check if score is 50 or more. The else part assigns 'Fail'.

Fill all three blanks to create a ternary expression that assigns the uppercase of name if is_upper is True, else the lowercase.

Python

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using '!=' instead of '==' changes the condition meaning.

Mixing up 'upper' and 'lower' methods.

The method upper() converts to uppercase, lower() to lowercase. The condition checks if is_upper == True.
