NPTEL Python: Week 3 lectures
Week 3 lectures for Python are now available. There are 8 lectures.
NPTEL Python: Week 2 Quiz and Programming Assignment
Week 2 has both a quiz and a programming assignment.
- For quizzes, remember you can only submit once. You should be able to see your score after the deadline. Final exam questions will be of the same pattern as quizzes, so pay attention and check your answers after the correct solutions are announced.
- For this programming assignment, you have to write Python functions. Your function should return the value specified in the description of the problems. Do not print any messages or diagnostic information. Your code wll be evaluated automatically by comparing your program's output with the expected output, so any spurious output from your program will cause your answer to be reported as wrong.
There are some "public" test cases where you can see how your program does when you use "Compile and Run". Finally, you should "Submit" your code for evaluation. You will get a score on 100 based on how many test cases you solve correctly. These cases are "private", so you cannot see them.
Unlike the quiz, you can submit as many times as you like for programming assignments.
