The answer is D. The program prints:
4 11
Why?
Python works out everything on the right first, using the old values: b is 4 and a + b is 11. Then it puts them into a and b at the same time.
Trace table
A trace table follows the program step by step. Here’s this one:
| a | b | |
|---|---|---|
| before | 7 | 4 |
| after | 4 | 11 |
The code again
a = 7
b = 4
a, b = b, a + b
print(a, b)Try it: change one number in the program and predict the new output before you run it.
