Python Question / Quiz; What is the output of the following Python code, and why? Comment your answers below!

@PythonPr Supposed to be an error, Nonetheless the answer is supposed to be 6 Why is it 6? Here's the breakdown; You are creating a list named x that contains three integer elements.sum(x): The sum() function is a built-in Python utility that iterates through an iterable

@PythonPr Error courtesy of unclosed parenthesis in the print statement

@PythonPr Ans--->(C)Error There’s a missing closing parenthesis ) in the print statement, so Python raises a SyntaxError

@PythonPr Answer: A) 6 sum() adds all numbers in a list: › sum([1, 2, 3]) › 1 + 2 + 3 = 6 For beginners: sum() works on any iterable of numbers. Can also set start: sum([1,2, 3], 10) = 16

@PythonPr A) 6 sum() adds all elements in the list: 1 + 2 + 3 = 6 The trick here is that sum() works on iterables, not strings - so no concatenation happening

@PythonPr C) Error Missing closing paren

@PythonPr error missing ) in print()

@PythonPr Output C) Error ✅ Because the code is missing a closing parenthesis: print(sum(x) ➜ should be print(sum(x)) So it throws: SyntaxError: '(' was never closed

@PythonPr 6

@PythonPr C

@PythonPr B) 6 is the right answer. Just use the sum function here and simply add of all the numbers present in list.

@PythonPr C) Error

@PythonPr C) Error print(sum(x)) .@PythonPr

@PythonPr Error @grok what if print statement was closed?

@PythonPr 1. The print statement is missing a closing parentheses therefore a SyntaxError results 2. Barring that the result would be 6

@PythonPr Code will throw an error as closing bracket ')' is missing in the print statement.

@PythonPr The code is: python x = [1, 2, 3] print(sum(x) Answer: SyntaxError (missing closing parenthesis ) ) That's why → C is correct.

@PythonPr The answer is A. sum() takes all numbers within the list, then adds them together.

@PythonPr 6

@PythonPr 6

@PythonPr error. Missing closing parenthesis at print.... The print function should be closed print()

@PythonPr A

@PythonPr 6

@PythonPr A. Sum adds the values and returns 6

@PythonPr A

@PythonPr This happens to me all the time when vscode forgets to do the work for me haha. Its an syntax error, missing parentheses lol

@PythonPr Actually there is a missing clossing bracket ): And than right answer is 6.

@PythonPr C - missing )

@PythonPr Error .. missing last )

@PythonPr Error. Namely a syntax error - missing a ")".

@PythonPr Error

@PythonPr C

@PythonPr Interpreter told me 6 . Because I had no idea it could do that :)

@PythonPr Error, print statement is not closed print (sum(x) Should have been print (sum(x))
