Consider the following procedure, where L1 and L2 are two non-empty lists.
Consider the following procedure, where L1 and L2 are two non-empty lists. findSomething(L1, L2) will return True when
all the elements of both lists L1 and L2 are same but arranged in the reverseorder.
both lists L1 and L2 are same.
all the elements of list L1 are present in L2 where length(L2) > length(L1).
all the elements of list L2 are present in L1 where length(L1) > length(L2).

The following pseudocode is executed using the "Words" dataset and explode(W) returns the list of letters in the word W. For example explode(''common") will return ['c', 'o', 'm', 'm', 'o', 'n']. At the end of the execution, count stores the number of words with at least two consecutive occurrences of the same letter. Choose the correct code fragment to complete the pseudocode.

Let X be a row from the "Words" dataset. Procedure isRich(X) should return True if the number of distinct vowels is less than the number of distinct consonants in X.Word. But the code may have mistakes. Identify all such mistakes (if any). Assume that all statements not listed in the options below are free of errors. It is a Multiple Select Question (MSQ).

But the code may have mistakes. Identify all such mistakes (if any). Assume that all statements not listed in the options below are free of errors. It is a Multiple Select Question (MSQ). The return value of isRich(Y) will be True if
Line 2: vDict is initialized incorrectly
Line 10: i is updated incorrectly.
Line 12: Incorrect conditional statement to return True.
Line 15: return(True) should be replaced by return(False)
No error
Correct answers
Line 12: Incorrect conditional statement to return True.
Line 15: return(True) should be replaced by return(False)

Consider the procedure given below, where aList is a non-empty list of real numbers. At the end of the execution, which of the following option(s) would be correct? It is a Multiple Select Question (MSQ).
The first element of both the lists, cumuList and aList, will be same.
Number of elements in cumuList will be one lesser than that of aList.
cumuList is a list of numbers in increasing order.
Number of elements in both lists, cumuList and aList, will be same.
Correct answers
The first element of both the lists, cumuList and aList, will be same.
Number of elements in both lists, cumuList and aList, will be same.
The following pseudocode is executed using the "Olympics" dataset. At the end of the execution, medalDict stores a dictionary with player's name as key mapped to another dictionary. The nested dictionary stores the medal type as key mapped to a list of years in which the player won that medal. For example if player Xyz has won a silver medal in 2006, a gold medal in 2008, and another silver medal in 2011, then medalDict = {"Xyz" : {"Silver" : [2006, 2011], "Gold" : [2008]}, ... } Assume that every player has a distinct name. But the pseudocode may have mistakes. Identify all such mistakes (if any). Assume that all statements not listed in the options below are free of errors. It is a Multiple Select Question (MSQ).
