“Or” performed.
True or not True and False
True or False and False
True or False
True
4. Ans. (d) dict_student.update(dict_marks), as we use update method for 1
dictionary merging with syntax dict1.update(dict2)
5. Ans. (b) tuple, as Elements enclosed in parentheses( ) represents by 1
tuple.
6. Ans: (d) (40,60), as this expression will slice the given tuple starting with 1
index position 3 and selecting every second element till index number 7.
7. Ans. (c) None, as it is empty value. 1
8. Ans. (c) 512, as 2**3**2= 2**9=512 is the answer. 1
9. Ans. (b) Statement 4, as string’s individual element can’t assigned new 1
value so S[0]= '@' # Statement 4 give error.
10. Ans. (c) F=open(‘Notes.txt’) 1
print(F.read(10))
As read method in python is used to read at most n bytes from the file
associated with the given file descriptor. If the end of the file has been
reached while reading bytes from the given file descriptor, os.read( )
method will return an empty bytes object for all bytes left to be read.
11. Ans. (a) Pickling, as pickling is used for object serialization in handling 1
of Binary Files.
12. Ans. (d) n is local and x is global variable 1
As n is defined within function body and x is defined outside the function
body.
13. Alter- Add command is used to add a new column in table in SQL. 1

25 Lower = r.randint(1,3) means Lower will have value 1,2, or 3 2
. Upper =r.randint(2,4) means Upper will have value 2, 3, or 4
So K will be from (1, 2, 3) to (2, 3, 4)
Means if K=1, then upper limit (2,3,4)
If K=2, then upper limit (2,3,4)
If K=3, then upper limit (2,3,4)
So correct answer (ii) 30#40#50#
Maximum values of variables Lower and Upper are 3 and 4.
26 COUNT(*) returns the count of all rows in the table, 2
. whereas COUNT (COLUMN_NAME) is used with Column_Name
passed as argument and counts the number of non-NULL values in
the particular column that is given as argument.
Example:
A MySQL table, sales have 10 rows with many columns, one column
name is DISCOUNT.
This DISCOUNT column has 6 valid values and 4 empty/ null
values. When we run the Following queries on sales table.
SELECT COUNT(*)
FROM sales;
COUNT(*)
10
SELECT
COUNT(DISCOUNT)
FROM sales;
COUNT( DISCOUNT )
6
As in table, there are 10 rows so count(*) gives 10 and discount
column is having 6 valid values with 4 NULL values so it gives 6.

Q20 and Q21 are Assertion(A) and Reason(R) based questions. Mark
the correct choice as:
(A) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation for A
(B) Both A and R are true and R is not the correct explanation
for A
(C) A is True but R is False
(D) A is False but R is True
Assertion (A): Python functions can accept positional, keyword, and default
20. parameters.
Reasoning (R): Default parameters allow function arguments to be assigned (1)

a default value if no argument is provided during the function call.
Ans : (B) Both A and R are true and R is not the correct explanantion
for A
Assertion (A): A GROUP BY clause in SQL can be used without any
21.
aggregate functions.
Reasoning (R): The GROUP BY clause is used to group rows that have the (1)
same values in specified columns and must always be paired
with aggregate functions.

Consider the following Python code snippet:
22.
a = [1, 2, 3]
b=a (2)
a.append(4)
c = (5, 6, 7)
d = c + (8,)
a. Explain the mutability of a and c in the context of this code.
b. What will be the values of b and d after the code is executed?
Ans : a) a is a mutable object (a list), meaning its contents can be

changed after it is created. This is demonstrated by the append()
method that adds an element to the list.
c is an immutable object (a tuple). Once created, its contents cannot
be changed. The operation c + (8,) does not modify c but creates a new
tuple.
b)The value of b will be [1, 2, 3, 4], as b references the same list as a,

which was modified by appending 4.
The value of d will be (5, 6, 7, 8), as the expression c + (8,) creates a
new tuple combining c and (8,).

28. A) Explain one advantage and one disadvantage of mesh topology in
computer networks.
OR (2)
B) Expand the term DNS. What role does DNS play in the functioning of the
Internet?
Ans :
(A): Advantage of Mesh Topology: High redundancy; if one connection
fails, data can still be transmitted through other nodes.
Disadvantage of Mesh Topology: Complexity and high cost; requires
more cabling and configuration compared to simpler topologies.
OR
(B): · DNS stands for Domain Name System. It translates human-

readable domain names (like www.example.com) into IP addresses that
computers use to identify each other on the network.

MovieStack and a new movie record new_movie as arguments and pushes
the new movie record onto the stack.

Interstellar Logistics Ltd. is an international shipping company. They are
37. planning to establish a new logistics hub in Chennai, with the head office in
Bangalore. The Chennai hub will have four buildings - OPERATIONS,
WAREHOUSE, CUSTOMER_SUPPORT, and MAINTENANCE. As a
network specialist, your task is to propose the best networking solutions to
address the challenges mentioned in points (I) to (V), considering the
distances between the various buildings and the given requirements.
(5)
Building-to-Building Distances (in meters):
From To Distance
OPERATIONS WAREHOUSE 40 m
OPERATIONS CUSTOMER_SUPPORT 90 m
OPERATIONS MAINTENANCE 50 m
WAREHOUSE CUSTOMER_SUPPORT 60 m
WAREHOUSE MAINTENANCE 45 m
CUSTOMER_SUPPORT MAINTENANCE 55 m
Distance of Bangalore Head Office from Chennai Hub: 1300 km
Number of Computers in Each Building/Office:
Location Computers
OPERATIONS 40
WAREHOUSE 20
CUSTOMER_SUPPORT 25
MAINTENANCE 22
BANGALORE HEAD OFFICE 15

(I) Suggest the most suitable location for the server within the Chennai hub.
Justify your decision.
(II) Recommend the hardware device to connect all computers within each
building efficiently.
(III) Draw a cable layout to interconnect the buildings at the Chennai hub
efficiently. Which type of cable would you recommend for the fastest and
most reliable data transfer?
(IV) Is there a need for a repeater in the proposed cable layout? Justify your
answer.
(V) A) Recommend the best option for live video communication between the
Operations Office in the Chennai hub and the Bangalore Head Office from
the following choices:
 a) Video Conferencing
 b) Email
 c) Telephony
 d) Instant Messaging
OR
(V) B) What type of network (PAN, LAN, MAN, or WAN) would be set up
among the computers within the Chennai hub?
Ans :
(I) The server should be placed in the OPERATIONS building.
Justification:
 It has the largest number of computers (40), making it the most

central location in terms of the network load.
 The distances to other buildings are relatively short, ensuring
efficient data transfer. (1 Mark)
(II) A switch should be used within each building to connect all

computers. A switch is ideal for creating a local area network (LAN)
and ensures efficient communication between devices in a single
building. ( 1 Mark)
(III) The most efficient cable layout would involve connecting the
buildings as follows:
 OPERATIONS to WAREHOUSE (40 m)

 OPERATIONS to MAINTENANCE (50 m)
 OPERATIONS to CUSTOMER_SUPPORT (90 m)
 WAREHOUSE to MAINTENANCE (45 m)
 WAREHOUSE to CUSTOMER_SUPPORT (60 m)

Cable Recommendation: Fiber optic cable is recommended for high-

speed data transfer and reliable communication over distances. It
offers better bandwidth and lower signal degradation over long
distances than copper cables. ( 1/2 + 1/2 mark)
(III) There is no need for a repeater in this layout. The maximum distance
between any two buildings is 90 meters, which is well within the 100-meter
limit for Ethernet cable or fiber optics before requiring a repeater.
( 1 mark )
(IV) A) The best option for live communication between the Chennai
Operations Office and the Bangalore Head Office would be Video
Conferencing. This allows real-time face-to-face meetings and visual
communication across long distances, which is ideal for inter-office
collaboration.
OR
(V) B) The network type in the Chennai hub would be a LAN (Local Area
Network), as all computers are located within a confined geographical
area (the logistics hub) and are connected to each other for data
communication within the same campus.
