Answer: Python Puzzler #3111

The answer is C. The program prints:

[1, 2, 14, 16, 30]

This answer was checked by running the program for real.

Why?

sort() puts the list in order, smallest first. It changes the list itself.

The code again

scores = [14, 2, 16, 1, 30]
scores.sort()
print(scores)

Try it: change one number in the program and predict the new output before you run it.
