Python Interview Questions

Hi There, In this post we’ll see some Interview questions on Python programming language

1. What is Python?

  • Python is an example of a high-level language similar to Other high-level languages Ex: C, C++, Perl, and Java
  • programs written in a high-level language have to be processed before they can run. This extra processing takes some time, which is a small disadvantage of high-level languages.
  • Python is considered an interpreted language because Python programs are executed by an interpreter.

2. What is low-level language?

  • A programming language that is designed to be easy for a computer to execute.
  • low-level languages, sometimes referred to as machine languages or assembly languages.
  • computers can only run programs written in lowlevel languages.

3. How high-level languages process into low-level languages?

  • Interpreters and compilers process high-level languages into low-level languages.

4. What is An interpreter?

  • An interpreter is a computer program that directly executes, i.e. performs, instructions written in a programming or scripting language, without requiring them previously to have been compiled into a machine language program.
  • An interpreter reads a high-level program and executes it
  • It processes the program a little at a time, alternately reading lines and performing computations

    SOURCE CODE —> INTERPRETER —> OUTPUT

5. What is a compiler?

  • A compiler reads the program and translates it completely before the program starts running. In this context, the high-level program is called the source code, and the translated program is called the object code or the executable. Once a program is compiled, you can execute it repeatedly without further translation

    SOURCE CODE —> COMPILER —> OBJECT CODE —> EXECUTOR —> OUTPUT

6. What is a program?

  • A program is a sequence of instructions that specifies how to perform a computation.

7. What is debugging?

  • Programming is error-prone. Programming errors are called bugs and the process of tracking them down is called debugging.

8. Three kinds of errors can occur in a program?

  • Syntax errors
  • Runtime errors
  • Semantic errors
