How it works?

Question

Among the tests there is such a question.
x=[]
for y in range(12):
if y[b] %[/b] 2 == 0:
x.append(y)
continue
print(x)
What is [b] and [/ b], what does it do. The interpreter gives an error.

Answer 1

Seriously it makes zero sense. A long time ago I have reported this question and still it hasn't been taken down.
Many other questions have answers that are quite wrong, but this is wrong beyond measure.

Answer 2

It's just a case of "people weren't very aware of the mistake" when they approved the quiz, whoever "they" is.

Answer 3

Thank. I even tried in python 2.6, but it still doesn't work

Answer 4

how do this work??
