NCERT Solutions for Class 11 Science Computer science Chapter 9 - Lists

Answer:

i) The sort() method will sort the list in ascending order in place.
OUTPUT:
[10, 12, 26, 32, 65, 80]


ii) The sorted() function takes a list as a parameter and creates a new list consisting of the same elements arranged in sorted order. It doesn’t change the list which is passed as a parameter itself.
OUTPUT: 
[12, 32, 65, 26, 80, 10]

iii) The statement in line 2 has a negative step size. This means that the list will be traversed in reversed order with step size 2.
OUTPUT: [10, 8, 6, 4, 2]
The statement in line 3 will print the complete list. i.e. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10]

iv) This will print the last element of the list. i.e. 5 

Answer:

i) append() function takes only one argument and inserts the element to the end of the list. Here, the argument is a list containing the element 50, 60. Therefore, the output will be: [10, 20, 30, 40, [50, 60]]

ii) extend() function takes a list as an argument and appends each element of the list in the same order. The final output will be: [10, 20, 30, 40, [50, 60],80,90]

Answer:

Here, the elements of the list will be printed which are at index such that index%2==0. The index of the list can be represented as:
 

Answer:

1. The statement in line 2 will delete the elements from index 3 to the last index of the list. Therefore, the output will be [1, 2, 3].
2. The statement in line 2 will delete the elements from start (index 0) to index 4 of the list. Therefore, the output will be [6, 7, 8, 9, 10]
3. The statement in line 2 will delete the elements from the start to the end of the list with step size 2. i.e it will delete elements starting from index 0, then index 2, index 4, index 6 … and so on.
   The output will be the remaining elements i.e. [2, 4, 6, 8, 10]

Answer:

The append() function takes a single element as an argument and appends it to the list. The argument can be any datatype, even a list. The argument will be added as a single element. 
>>>list1 = [10, 20, 30]
>>>list1.append(40)

list1 will now be [10, 20, 30, 40]

>>>list1 = [10, 20, 30]
>>>list1.append([40, 50])

Here [40, 50] is a list which will be considered as a single argument, and will be added to the list at index 3. 'list1' will now be [10, 20, 30, [40, 50]]

The extend() function takes any iterable data type (e.g. list, tuple, string, dictionary) as an argument and adds all the elements of the list passed as an argument to the end of the given list. This function can be used to add more than one element in the list in a single statement.

>>> list1 = [2, 4, 5, 6]
>>> list1.extend((2, 3, 4, 5))
>>> print(list1)

OUTPUT:
[2, 4, 5, 6, 2, 3, 4, 5]

Answer:

1. The statement will print the elements of the list twice, i.e [6, 7, 8, 9, 6, 7, 8, 9]. However, list1 will not be altered.
2. This statement will change the list1 and assign the list with repeated elements i.e [6, 7, 8, 9, 6, 7, 8, 9] to list1. 
3. This statement will also have same result as the statement 'list1 *= 2'. The list with repeated elements i.e [6, 7, 8, 9, 6, 7, 8, 9] will be assigned to list1. 

Answer:

Answer:

Program:
#defining a list
list1 = [10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 20, 50, 10, 30, 50, 30, 24, 45]

#printing the list for the user
print("The list is:",list1)

#asking the element to count
inp = int(input("Which element occurrence would you like to count? "))

#using the count function
count = list1.count(inp)

#printing the output
print("The count of element",inp,"in the list is:",count)

OUTPUT:
The list is: [10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 20, 50, 10, 30, 50, 30, 24, 45]
which element occurrence would you like to count? 10
The count of element 10 in the list is: 2

Answer:

Program:
#Defining empty list
list1 = list()

#Getting the input of number of elements to be added in the list
inp = int(input("How many elements do you want to add in the list? (Element can be both positive and negative) "))

#Taking the input of elements to be added
for i in range(inp):
    a = int(input("Enter the elements: "))
    list1.append(a)
    
#Printing the list
print("The list with all the elements: ",list1)

#Defining list2 and list3 to store positive and negative elements of the list
list2 = list()
list3 = list()

#Looping through list to segregate positive and negative numbers
for j in range(inp):
    if list1[j] < 0:
        #Appending negative elements to list3
        list3.append(list1[j])
    else:
        #Appending positive elements to list2
        list2.append(list1[j])

print("The list with positive elements: ",list2)
print("The list with negative elements: ",list3)

OUTPUT:
How many elements do you want to add in the list? (Element can be both positive and negative) 5
Enter the elements: -1
Enter the elements: -2
Enter the elements: -3
Enter the elements: 4
Enter the elements: 5
The list with all the elements:  [-1, -2, -3, 4, 5]
The list with positive elements:  [4, 5]
The list with negative elements:  [-1, -2, -3]

Answer:

The function can be written in two ways:
1. Using max() function of the list
2. Using for loop to iterate every element and checking for the maximum value 

Program 1:
#Using max() function to find largest number
def largestNum(list1):
    l = max(list1)
    return l

list1 = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]

#Using largestNum function to get the function   
max_num = largestNum(list1)

#Printing all the elements for the list
print("The elements of the list",list1)

#Printing the largest num 
print("\nThe largest number of the list:",max_num)

OUTPUT:
The elements of the list [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]

The largest number of the list: 9​

Program 2:
​#Without using max() function of the list
def largestNum(list1):
    length = len(list1)
    num = 0
    for i in range(length):
        if(i == 0 or list1[i] > num):
            num = list1[i]
    return num

list1 = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]

#Using largestNum function to get the function   
max_num = largestNum(list1)

#Printing all the elements for the list
print("The elements of the list",list1)

#Printing the largest num 
print("\nThe largest number of the list:",max_num)

OUTPUT:
The elements of the list [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]

The largest number of the list: 9​

Answer:

Program:
def secLargestNum(list1):
    #Sorting the list in ascending order
    list1.sort()
    
    #Returning the second last index of list1
    #List with negative indexing will start from the end in reverse order with -1 as the index of the last element
    secondLast = list1[-2]
    
    
    #or len(list1)-2 can be used which will return second last element
    ​#secondLast = list1[len(list1)-2]
    return secondLast

list1 = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]

#Using secLargestNum function to get the function   
sec_num = secLargestNum(list1)

#Printing all the elements for the list
print("The elements of the list",list1)

#Printing the second largest num 
print("\nThe second-largest number of the list:",sec_num)

OUTPUT:
The elements of the list [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]

The second-largest number of the list: 8

Answer:

Program:
def medianValue(list1):
    #Sorting the list
    list1.sort()
    #Checking the last index
    indexes = len(list1)
    if(indexes%2 == 0):
        #if the number of elements is even, then we have to find average of two middle values
        num1 = (indexes) // 2 #first middle element
        num2 = (indexes // 2) + 1 #second middle element
        #Calculating median as average of the two
        med = (list1[num1 - 1] + list1[num2 - 1]) / 2
        return med
    else:
        #if number of elements is odd, then we have to return the element at middle index
        middle = (indexes - 1) // 2
        med = list1[middle]
        return med

#defining empty list
list1 = list()
#Getting input of number of elements to be added in the list
inp = int(input("How many elements do you want to add in the list? "))
#Getting the input of elements from user
for i in range(inp):
    a = int(input("Enter the elements: "))
    list1.append(a)
#Printing the list
print("The median value is",medianValue(list1))

OUTPUT:
How many elements do you want to add in the list? 6
Enter the elements: 1
Enter the elements: 2
Enter the elements: 3
Enter the elements: 4
Enter the elements: 5
Enter the elements: 6
The median value is 3.5
