Python Coding Challenge - Question with Answer (ID -160326)

 

Explanation:

1️⃣ Assigning None to x

x = None

This line creates a variable x.

It assigns the value None to x.

None in Python represents no value / null.

The type of None is NoneType.

👉 After this line:

x → None

2️⃣ Assigning 0 to y

y = 0

This line creates a variable y.

It assigns the integer value 0 to y.

0 is a number (integer).

👉 After this line:

y → 0

3️⃣ Printing the Comparison

print(x is y, x == y)

This line prints the result of two comparisons.

x is y

x == y

4️⃣ x is y (Identity Comparison)

The is operator checks whether two variables refer to the same object in memory.

Here:

x → None

y → 0

They are different objects, so:

x is y → False

5️⃣ x == y (Value Comparison)

The == operator checks whether the values are equal.

Here:

None != 0

So:

x == y → False

6️⃣ Final Output

The print statement becomes:

False False
