Identify the error in this code snippet:
from scipy import sqrt
result = sqrt(16)
print(result)
Aprint statement syntax is incorrect
Bsqrt function requires two arguments
CMissing numpy import for sqrt
Dsqrt is not directly in scipy, import from scipy.special
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Check import correctness

    sqrt is not in top-level scipy (needs scipy.special); function takes one argument; no numpy required; print is correct.
  2. Final Answer:

    sqrt is not directly in scipy, import from scipy.special -> Option D
  3. Quick Check:

    Import path error = sqrt is not directly in scipy, import from scipy.special [OK]
Quick Trick: sqrt is in scipy.special, not scipy directly [OK]
Common Mistakes:
MISTAKES
  • Assuming sqrt is in scipy root module
  • Thinking sqrt needs multiple arguments
  • Confusing print syntax with Python 2
