Which would be the base case in a recursive solution to the problem of finding the
factorial of a number. Recall that the factorial of a non-negative whole number is defined
as n! where:

recursion
What is the number of the first index in a dictionary? - ANSW Dictionaries are not

What will the following program display?
class Test:
def __init__(self):
, self.num1 = 0class
Derived_Test(Test):
def __init__(self):
self.num2 = 1def
main():
show = Derived_Test()
print(show.num1,show.num2)
main() - ANSW Error because class Derived_Test inherits Test but variable num1 isn't
inherited

mystr = 'yes'
yourstr = 'no'
mystr += yourstr * 2
print(mystr) - ANSW yesnono
If the start index is __________ the end index, the slicing expression will return an
empty string. - ANSW greater than

of attributes, without exposing the attributes in a way that could allow them to be
changed by code outside the method? - ANSW accessor
