Question

What is the output of this code?

look = "look out the window!"
find = "snow"
print(look[:-1] + find[1:] + look[-1])
a) "look out the windows!"
b) "look out the winds!"
c) "snow out the window!"
d) "look out the window"

Answer 1

The output of the code is "look out the windo!now", created by slicing and concatenating parts of the given strings.

Step-by-step explanation:

The output of the code provided will be:

"look out the windo!now"

This is because the slicing operation look[:-1] returns the string "look out the window" excluding the last character which is the exclamation mark. The second slicing operation find[1:] returns the string "now" starting from the second character of the string "snow". Lastly, look[-1] gets the last character of the look string which is the exclamation mark. When these three parts are concatenated, they form "look out the windo!now".
