SQP – Computer Science (Code: 083) Class XII (2016-17) Time: 3Hrs. MM: 70 Instructions: i. All Questions are Compulsory. ii. Programming Language : Section – A : C++ iii. Programming Language : Section – B : Python iv. Answer either Section A or B and Section C is compulsory
Section – A
1 (a) Explain Conditional Operator with suitable example? 2 Conditional operator is also known as ternary operator because it requires three operands and can be used to replace simple if-else code. It is used to check the condition and execute first expression if condition is true else execute other.
Syntax:
Conditional expression? Expression 1 : Expression 2;
Explanation: If the conditional expression is true then expression 1 executes otherwise expression 2 executes.
Example:
CPP
int y = 10, x;
x = y > 10 ? 1 : 0;
cout << x;
|
Output:
0

Section – B (Python)
1 (a) Carefully observe the following python code and answer the questions that follow:
PYTHON3
x = 5
def func2():
x = 3
global x
x = x + 1
print x
print x
|
On execution the above code produces the following output.
6
3
Explain the output with respect to the scope of the variables. 2 Names declared with global keyword have to be referred at the file level. This is because the global statement indicates that the particular variable lives in the global scope. If no global statement is being used, the variable with the local scope is accessed. Hence, in the above code the statement succeeding the statement global x informs python to increment the global variable x Hence the output is 6 i.e 5+1 which is also the value for global x. (b) Name the modules to which the following functions belong: 1 a. uniform() b. fabs() a. random() b. math() (c) Rewrite the following code after removing the syntactical errors (if any). Underline each correction. 2
PYTHON3

x = input("Enter a number")
if (x % 2 = 0):
for i range (2 * x):
print i
loop else:
print "
|
PYTHON3
def chksum():
x = input("Enter a number")
if (x % 2 == 0):
for i in range(2 * x):
print i
else:
print "
|
(d) Observe the following Python code carefully and obtain the output, which will appear on the screen after execution of it. 2

L = "earn"
X = " "
L1 = []
count = i
for i in L:
if i in ['a', 'e', 'i', 'o', 'u']:
X = X + i.swapcase()
else
if(count % 2 != 0):
X = X + str(len(L(:count)))
else:
X = X + i
count = count + 1
print X
Findoutput()
|
Output:
EA3n
(e) What output will be generated when the following Python code is executed? 3
PYTHON3
def Changelist():
L = []
L1 = []
L2 = []
for i in range (1, 10):
L.append(i)
for i in range (10, 1, -2):
L1.append(i)
for i in range (len(L1)):
L2.append(L1[i]+L[i])
L2.append(len(L)-len(L1))
print L2
Changelist()

(f) Observe the following program and answer the questions that follow:
PYTHON3
import random
X = 3
N = random.randint(1, X)
for i in range(N):
print i, '#', i + 1
|
a. What is the minimum and maximum number of times the loop will execute? Minimum Number = 1 Maximum Number = 3 b. Find out, which line of output(s) out of (i) to (iv) will not be expected from the program? i. 0#1 ii. 1#2 iii. 2#3 iv. 3#4 Line iv is not expected to be a part of the output 2a. Explain the two strategies employed by Python for memory allocation. Python uses two strategies for memory allocation: i. Reference counting ii. Automatic garbage collection. Reference Counting: works by counting the number of times an object is referenced by other objects in the system. When an object’s reference count reaches zero, Python collects it automatically. Automatic Garbage Collection: Python schedules garbage collection based upon a threshold of object allocations and object deallocations. When the number of allocations minus the number of deallocations are greater than the threshold number, the garbage collector is run and the unused block of memory is reclaimed. b. Observe the following class definition and answer the questions that follow:
PYTHON3
class Info:
ips = 0
def__str__(self):
return "Welcome to the Info Systems"
def__init__(self):
self.__Systemdate = " "
self.Systemtime = " "
def getinput(self):
self.__Systemdate = raw_input("Enter data")
self.Systemtime = raw_input("Enter data")
Info.incrips()
@staticmethod
def incrips():
Info.ips = Info.ips + 1
print "System invoked", Info.ips, "times"
I = Info()
I.getinput()
print I.systemtime
print __Systemdate
|
i. Write statement to invoke Function 1. print I ii. On Executing the above code, Statement 2 is giving an error explain. The statement 2 is giving an error because __Systemdate is a private variable and hence cannot be printed outside the class. c Define a class PRODUCT in Python with the following specifications. Data members: Pid – A string to store product id. Pname – A string to store the name of the product. Pcostprice – A decimal to store the cost price of the product Psellingprice – A decimal to store Selling Price Margin – A decimal to be calculated as Psellingprice – Pcostprice Remarks – To store ”Profit” if Margin is positive else “Loss” if Margin is negative. Member Functions: A constructor function to initialize All the data members with valid default values. A method SetRemarks() that assigns Margin as Psellingprice – Pcostprice and sets Remarks as mentioned below:
Margin Remarks
<0 (negative) Loss
>0 (positive) Profit
A method Getdetails() to accept values for Pid, Pname, Pcostprice, Psellingprice and invokes SetRemarks() method. A method Setdetails() that displays all the data members.
PYTHON3
class PRODUCT:
def__init__(self):
self.Pid = " "
self.Pname = " "
self.Pcostprice = 0.0
self.Psellingprice = 0.0
self.Margin = 0.0
self.Remarks = " "
def SetRemarks(self):
self.Margin = self.Psellingprice - self.Pcostprice
if ( self.Margin < 0):
self.Remarks = "Loss"
else:
self.Remarks = "Profit"
def Getdetails(self):
self.Pid = raw_input(" Enter Product Id ")
self.Pname = raw_input(" Enter Product Name ")
self.Pcostprice = raw_input(" Enter Cost Price ")
self.Psellingprice = raw_input(" Enter Selling Price ")
self.SetRemarks()
def Setdetails(self):
print "Product Id", self.Pid

print "Cost Price", self.Pcostprice
print "Selling Price", self.Psellingprice
print "Margin:", self.Margin
print "Incurred:", self.Remarks

7 (a) Identify the type of topology on the basis of the following: 1. Since every node is directly connected to the server, a large amount of cable is needed which increases the installation cost of the network. 2. It has a single common data path connecting all the nodes. Answer: 1. Star Topology 2. Bus Topology (b) Expand the following: 1 a. VOIP: Voice Over Internet Protocol b. SMTP: Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (c) Who is a hacker? 1 A computer enthusiast, who uses his computer programming skills to intentionally access a computer without authorization is known as hacker. A hacker accesses the computer without the intention of destroying data or maliciously harming the computer. (d) The following is a 32 bit binary number usually represented as 4 decimal values, each representing 8 bits, in the range 0 to 255 (known as octets) separated by decimal points 140.179.220.200. What is it? What is its importance? 1 It is an IP Address.It is used to identify the computers on a network. (e) Daniel has to share the data among various computers of his two offices branches situated in the same city. Name the network (out of LAN, WAN, PAN and MAN) which is being formed in this process. 1 Answer: MAN (f) Rehaana Medicos Center has set up its new center in Dubai. It has four buildings as shown in the diagram given below: 
Distances between various buildings are as follows:
Accounts to Research Lab 55 m
Accounts to Store 150 m
Store to Packaging Unit 160 m
Packaging Unit to Research Lab 60 m
Accounts to Packaging Unit 125 m
Store to Research Lab 180 m
Number of Computers
Accounts 25
Research Lab 100
Store 15
Packaging Unit 60
As a network expert, provide the best possible answer for the following queries: i) Suggest a cable layout of connections between the buildings. 
ii) Suggest the most suitable place (i.e. buildings) to house the server of this organization. The most suitable place/ building to house the server of this organization would be building Research Lab, as this building contains the maximum number of computers. iii) Suggest the placement of the following device with justification: a) Repeater b) Hub/Switch 1 a) For layout1, since the cabling distance between Accounts to Store is quite large, so a repeater would ideally be needed along their path to avoid loss of signals during the course of data flow in this route. For layout2, since the cabling distance between Store to Research Lab is quite large, so a repeater would ideally be placed. b) In both the layouts, a Hub/Switch each would be needed in all the buildings to interconnect the group of cables from the different computers in each building. iv) Suggest a system (hardware/software) to prevent unauthorized access to or from the network. 1 (iv) Firewall
