Question

I need the explanation of the below question:
x = ‘a’
If (x < ‘c’)
X+= ‘b’
If (x > ‘z’):
X+ = ‘c’
Print (x)

Answer 1

X is not x, they are two different variables. x = 'a' (line one). The rest is there to confuse you.

But it could also be the keyboard helping you with caps at the beginning of a sentence.

Answer 2

x = 'a'

if (x < 'c'):
x += 'b'

if (x > 'z'):
x += 'c'

print (x)

x is less than c because Of ASCII value of a is less than c

so x = ab

Now 'ab' > 'z' here comparison will be on first character

ASCII value of a is less than z so this if block will not execute

So finally x = 'ab'

Answer 3

Hi!
And also, in Python we can skip parentheses in the conditions (if they are not needed i.g. to group terms or to order operations):

if x < 'c':
x += 'b'
