General Instructions:
● The answers given in the marking scheme are SUGGESTIVE, Examiners are
requested to award marks for all alternative correct solutions/answers
conveying similar meaning.
● All programming questions have to be answered with respect to C++
Language for Section A and Python for Section B (All presently supported
versions of compilers/interpreters should be considered).
● In C++/Python, ignore case sensitivity for identifiers (Variable / Functions
/ Structures / Class Names) ​
unless explicitly specified in question​
.
● In SQL related questions :
○ Both ways of text/character entries should be acceptable. For
example: “AMAR” and ‘amar’ both are acceptable.

/
○ All date entries should be acceptable for example: ‘YYYY‐MM‐DD’,

om
‘YY‐MM‐DD’, ‘DD‐Mon‐YY’, “DD/MM/YY”, ‘DD/MM/YY’, “MM/DD/YY”,
‘MM/DD/YY’ and {MM/DD/YY} are correct.
○ Semicolon should be ignored for terminating the SQL statements.

.c
○ Ignore case sensitivity for commands.
○ Ignore headers in output questions.

(Only for Python candidates)
1  (a) How is __init( ) __different from __del ( )__ ? 2

Ans __init__()​  ​
is the class constructor or initialization method
which is automatically invoked when we create a new instance of a
class.
 

__del__() is a destructor which is automatically invoked when

an object (instance) goes out of scope.
 

/
For Example:

om
 

class Sample: 
  def __init__(self): 

.c
    self.data = 79 
    print('Data:',self.data,'created') 

m
   
  def __del__(self): 

se
    print('Data:',self.data,'deleted') 
s = Sample()

In the following example operator + is used for finding the sum of

two integers:
  a = 7 
  b = 5 
  print(a+b)  # gives the output: 12 
 
Whereas in the next example, shown below the same + operator
is used to add two strings:
  a = 'Indian ' 
  b = 'Government' 
  print(a+b)  #  gives  the  output:  Indian
