35 Python Programming Exercises and Solutions


To understand a programming language deeply, you need to practice what you’ve learned. If you’ve completed learning the syntax of Python programming language, it is the right time to do some practice programs.

In this article, I’ll list down some problems that I’ve done and the answer code for each exercise. Analyze each problem and try to solve it by yourself. If you have any doubts, you can check the code that I’ve provided below. I’ve also attached the corresponding outputs.

  1. I don’t mean to nitpick and I don’t want this published but you might want to check code for #16.
    4 is not a prime number.

  2. # 8. Python program to check whether the given integer is a multiple of both 5 and 7:

    You can only check if integer is a multiple of 35.
    It always works the same – just multiply all the numbers you need to check for multiplicity.

  3. Please who can help me with this question asap

    A particular cell phone plan includes 50 minutes of air time and 50 text messages for $15.00 a month. Each additional minute of air time costs $0.25, while additional text messages cost $0.15 each. All cell phone bills include an additional charge of $0.44 to support 911 call centers, and the entire bill (including the 911 charge) is subject to 5 percent sales tax.

    We are so to run the code in phyton

  4. May be in a better way for reverse.

    #”’ Reverse of a string

    v_str = str ( input(‘ Enter a valid string or number :- ‘) )
    v_rev_str=”
    for v_d in v_str:
    v_rev_str = v_d + v_rev_str

    print( ‘reverse of th input string / number :- ‘, v_str ,’is :- ‘, v_rev_str.capitalize() )

    #Reverse of a string ”’

  5. Problem 15. When searching for prime numbers, the maximum search range only needs to be sqrt(n). You needlessly continue the search up to //n. Additionally, you check all even numbers. As long as you declare 2 to be prime, the rest of the search can start at 3 and check every other number. Another big efficiency improvement.
