The answer is A. The program prints:
1 Beep 3 Beep 5 Beep 7 Beep 9
Why?
Every number that divides exactly by 2 (remainder 0) is replaced by ‘Beep’. All the others are printed as they are.
Trace table
A trace table follows the program step by step. Here’s this one:
| number | number % 2 | printed |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 1 | 1 |
| 2 | 0 | Beep |
| 3 | 1 | 3 |
| 4 | 0 | Beep |
| 5 | 1 | 5 |
| 6 | 0 | Beep |
| 7 | 1 | 7 |
| 8 | 0 | Beep |
| 9 | 1 | 9 |
The code again
for number in range(1, 10):
if number % 2 == 0:
print("Beep")
else:
print(number)Try it: change one number in the program and predict the new output before you run it.
