Question #2

Jenice is riding the bus in the morning and is a car rider in the afternoon.

Fill in the Blank:
What is the output of this program?

[tex]\[
\begin{array}{l}
\text{age} = 4 \\
\text{if age} \ \textgreater \ 5: \\
\quad \text{print("more")} \\
\text{else:} \\
\quad \text{print("less")}
\end{array}
\][/tex]

Output: [tex]$\square$[/tex]



Answer :

Sure, let's go through the question step-by-step to understand what the output will be.

1. Initialization: The variable `age` is set to 4.
[tex]\[ \text{age} = 4 \][/tex]

2. Condition Check: We have an if-else condition that checks if `age` is greater than 5.
[tex]\[ \text{if age} > 5 \][/tex]

3. Evaluation of Condition:
- We compare `age` which is 4 with 5.
- Since 4 is not greater than 5, the condition `age > 5` evaluates to `False`.

4. Branching:
- Because the condition is `False`, we skip the first branch (`print("more")`).
- We execute the code inside the `else` block: `print("less")`.

5. Output:
- The `print` statement inside the `else` block executes, and the output of this program will be:
[tex]\[ \text{"less"} \][/tex]

Therefore, the output of the program is:

[tex]\[ \boxed{\text{less}} \][/tex]
