What will this code print if the sensor at address 0x40 returns 0x1A for read_byte_data?
import smbus
bus = smbus.SMBus(1)
value = bus.read_byte_data(0x40, 0x00)
print(hex(value))
AError: read_byte_data requires only one argument
B0x1a
C0x00
D26
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Understand read_byte_data usage

    read_byte_data(address, register) reads a byte from a specific register; returns integer.
  2. Step 2: Convert returned integer to hex string

    print(hex(value)) converts 26 decimal to '0x1a'.
  3. Final Answer:

    0x1a -> Option B
  4. Quick Check:

    read_byte_data returns integer, hex() formats it [OK]
Quick Trick: Use hex() to display byte data in hex format [OK]
Common Mistakes:
MISTAKES
  • Printing decimal instead of hex
  • Wrong number of arguments
  • Confusing read_byte and read_byte_data
