Question 23: Find the output of the following program:
L1 = [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 ] L2 = L1 L3 = L1.copy() L4 = L1 L1[ 0 ] = [ 5 ] print (L1, L2, L3, L4) |
(A) [5, 2, 3, 4] [5, 2, 3, 4] [1, 2, 3, 4] [1, 2, 3, 4]
(B) [[5], 2, 3, 4] [[5], 2, 3, 4] [[5], 2, 3, 4] [1, 2, 3, 4]
(C) [5, 2, 3, 4] [5, 2, 3, 4] [5, 2, 3, 4] [1, 2, 3, 4]
(D) [[5], 2, 3, 4] [[5], 2, 3, 4] [1, 2, 3, 4] [[5], 2, 3, 4]
Answer: (D)
Explanation: List L2 is the Shallow copy of L1, while L3 and L4 are Deep Copy(True Copy) of List L1. L1[0] = [5], implies that at index 0, list [5] will be present and not integer value 5.
