Answer: Python Puzzler #3246

The answer is B. The program prints:

[26, 31, 38, 44]

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 = [44, 38, 26, 31]
scores.sort()
print(scores)

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