Chapter 7, Problem 4TF
Explanation of Solution
Copying lists:
- • In Python, to copy a list to another list, simply assign the list to be copied to another list
- • Both the lists will be identical as they refer to the same object in the memory.
Example program:
#Create a list of strings
slist1 = ['Jack', 'John', 'James']
#Copy slist1 to slist2
slist2 = slist1
#Print the slist1
print(slist1)
#Print the slist2
print(slist2)
#Change a string in slist2
slist2[1] = 'Jacob'
#Print the slist1
print(slist1)
#Print the slist2
print(slist2)
Sample output:
['Jack', 'John', 'James']
['Jack', 'John',...

- Ex1: a) Write a function for the user to enter a positive integer n with a value between 10 and 1000. If entered correctly, the function generates a list containing n random values that do not overlap between 1 and 5000 and the function returns the newly created list. Conversely, if entered incorrectly, the program will ask to re-enter until it is correct. Cases where n is considered incorrect:(i)- If the user enters a non-integer data type (like string, float, bool, ...)The program will display the error message 'Must enter a positive integer. Requires re-entry'.(ii)- If the input value is of the correct integer data type but the value is not in the range10 to 1000, the program gives the error 'Only values between 10 and 1000.
