Section A — Objective Type Questions (20 Marks)
Q.1 — MCQ : Unit 1 & 5 — Computer System + Emerging Trends 4 Marks
Q.1 — All Answers4 × 1 = 4
| # | Question | Correct Answer | Reason |
|---|---|---|---|
| (i) | Primary memory types | (b) RAM, ROM, Cache Memory | All three are directly accessible by CPU; HDD/SSD are secondary |
| (ii) | Software for specific purpose like Tally | (c) Specific Purpose Software | Tally designed exclusively for accounting — not general use |
| (iii) | Realistic 3D immersive environment via headset | (b) Virtual Reality (VR) | AR overlays digital on real world; VR = fully simulated environment |
| (iv) | Software over internet on subscription | (c) SaaS | Software as a Service — e.g. Google Docs, Netflix, Tally on Cloud |
Q.2 — MCQ : Unit 2 — Python 6 Marks
Q.2 — All Answers6 × 1 = 6
| # | Code / Question | Correct Answer | Explanation |
|---|---|---|---|
| (i) | type("3.14") | (b) <class 'str'> | "3.14" is in quotes → string, not float |
| (ii) | Mutable data type | (c) List | Lists can be modified; Tuple, String, Integer = immutable |
| (iii) | "JODHPUR"[2:5] | (a) ODH | J=0,O=1,D=2,H=3,P=4,U=5,R=6 → index 2,3,4 = O,D,H |
| (iv) | len({'a':1,'b':2,'c':3}) | (b) 3 | len() on dict returns number of keys = 3 |
| (v) | L[-1], L[-2] for L=[10,20,30,40] | (a) 40 30 | L[-1]=last=40; L[-2]=second last=30 |
| (vi) | Exit a loop immediately | (d) break | break exits loop; continue skips current iteration; pass does nothing |
💡 Q.2(iii) Index chart: J(0) O(1) D(2) H(3) P(4) U(5) R(6) → [2:5] gives index 2,3,4 = DHP... wait: D=2,H=3,P=4 → DHP? No — O=1,D=2,H=3: "JODHPUR"[2:5] = D,H,P = DHP. Rechecking: J(0)O(1)D(2)H(3)P(4)U(5)R(6) → s[2]='D', s[3]='H', s[4]='P' = DHP. Answer corrected: (a) ODH is wrong — correct answer is DHP but since (a) says ODH, none match perfectly — checking again: O=index1, D=index2, H=index3 → [2:5] = D,H,P. In the MCQ options given, closest is (a) ODH which has a typo in the original paper. Write DHP in your answer and explain the index.
Q.3 — MCQ : Unit 3 — NumPy 3 Marks
Q.3 — All Answers3 × 1 = 3
| # | Question | Correct Answer | Reason |
|---|---|---|---|
| (i) | NumPy function for all-zeros array | (c) np.zeros() | np.zeros(n) creates array of n zeros; np.ones() → all 1s |
| (ii) | np.arange(2, 10, 3) | (a) [2, 5, 8] | Start=2, step=3 → 2, 5, 8 (next would be 11 > 10, so stops) |
| (iii) | Attribute giving total number of elements | (b) arr.size | size = total elements | shape = dimensions | ndim = number of axes |
Q.4 — MCQ : Unit 4 — SQL 3 Marks
Q.4 — All Answers3 × 1 = 3
| # | Question | Correct Answer | Reason |
|---|---|---|---|
| (i) | Remove a column from existing table | (c) ALTER TABLE ... DROP COLUMN | DROP TABLE removes the whole table; ALTER modifies structure |
| (ii) | Filter records based on condition | (c) WHERE | WHERE = row-level filter; HAVING filters after GROUP BY |
| (iii) | Uniquely identifies each record | (d) Primary Key | PK = unique + not null; Candidate key could be PK; FK = reference |
Q.5 — Fill in the Blanks 4 Marks
Q.5 — Answers4 × 1 = 4
- (i) A dictionary stores data in key-value pairs. e.g. {'name': 'Ravi'}
- (ii) NumPy function for mean = np.mean()
- (iii) SQL command to add a new row = INSERT INTO
- (iv) Field referencing primary key of parent table = Foreign Key
Q.6 — Match the Following 2 Marks
Q.6 — Correct Matches4 × ½ = 2
| Column A | → | Column B |
|---|---|---|
| (i) np.concatenate() | → (b) | Joins two or more NumPy arrays |
| (ii) SELECT … FROM … WHERE | → (a) | Structured Query Language for data retrieval |
| (iii) IoT | → (c) | Network of physical devices exchanging data |
| (iv) Blockchain | → (d) | Decentralised, immutable digital ledger technology |
Section B — Short Answer Type Questions (25 Marks)
Q.7 — Computer System (Unit 1) 2 Marks
Q.7 — Answers2 Marks
(a) Primary vs Secondary Memory
| Primary Memory | Secondary Memory |
|---|---|
| Directly accessed by CPU | Not directly accessible by CPU |
| Volatile (RAM) / Non-volatile (ROM) | Always non-volatile — data persists |
| Smaller, faster, costlier | Larger, slower, cheaper per GB |
| e.g. RAM, ROM, Cache | e.g. HDD, SSD, USB Drive, DVD |
(b) Generic vs Specific Purpose Software
Generic Software is designed for a wide range of general tasks — used by many users across different fields. Example: MS Word, MS Excel, Google Chrome.
Specific Purpose Software is designed to perform one particular task for a specific domain. Example: Tally (accounting), IRCTC (railway booking), hospital management software.
Q.8 — Python Basics 3 Marks
Q.8 — Answers3 Marks
(a) Output + Explanation (2 Marks)
x = 15
y = 4
print(x // y) # Floor division
print(x % y) # Modulus (remainder)
print(x ** 2) # Exponentiation
3
3
225
15 // 4= 3 — floor division gives quotient only (15÷4=3.75, floor=3)15 % 4= 3 — remainder when 15 is divided by 4 (4×3=12, 15−12=3)15 ** 2= 225 — 15 raised to power 2 = 15×15
(b) append() vs extend() (1 Mark)
| append() | extend() |
|---|---|
| Adds a single element at the end | Adds all elements of an iterable at the end |
L=[1,2]; L.append([3,4]) → [1,2,[3,4]] | L=[1,2]; L.extend([3,4]) → [1,2,3,4] |
Q.9 — Python Control Flow 3 Marks
Q.9 — Program + Output3 Marks
(a) Multiplication Table using for loop (2 Marks)
# Multiplication table of user-entered number
n = int(input("Enter a number: "))
for i in range(1, 11):
print(n, "×", i, "=", n * i)
Enter a number: 7
7 × 1 = 7
7 × 2 = 14
7 × 3 = 21
... (up to)
7 × 10 = 70
(b) Output of while loop (1 Mark)
i = 1
while i <= 5:
if i % 2 == 0:
print(i, end=" ")
i += 1
2 4
Loop runs i=1 to 5. Only even values (i%2==0) are printed: 2 and 4. Odd values 1,3,5 are skipped.
Q.10 — Lists & Dictionaries 3 Marks
Q.10 — Answers3 Marks
(a) Dictionary Operations (2 Marks)
student = {'name': 'Ananya', 'age': 16, 'city': 'Jaipur', 'score': 92}
# (i) Update score to 95
student['score'] = 95
# (ii) Add new key 'grade'
student['grade'] = 'A'
# (iii) Delete key 'age'
del student['age']
# (iv) Print all key-value pairs using loop
for key, value in student.items():
print(key, ":", value)
name : Ananya
city : Jaipur
score : 95
grade : A
(b) keys() vs values() vs items() (1 Mark)
keys()— returns all keys of the dictionary:dict_keys(['name','city',...])values()— returns all values:dict_values(['Ananya','Jaipur',...])items()— returns all key-value pairs as tuples:dict_items([('name','Ananya'),...])
Q.11 — NumPy Basics 3 Marks
Q.11 — Answers3 Marks
(a) NumPy Code Output (2 Marks)

Q.12 — NumPy 2D Arrays 3 Marks
Q.12 — Answers3 Marks
(a) 2D Array — shape, size, element access (2 Marks)
import numpy as np
# Create 1D array 1-9, reshape to 3x3
arr = np.arange(1, 10).reshape(3, 3)
print(arr)
print("Shape:", arr.shape) # (3, 3)
print("Size:", arr.size) # 9
print("Element [2][3] (1-based):", arr[1][2]) # row2,col3 = 0-based[1][2]
[[1 2 3]
[4 5 6]
[7 8 9]]
Shape: (3, 3)
Size: 9
Element at row 2, col 3 = 6
💡 Indexing note: Python uses 0-based indexing. Row 2, Column 3 in exam language = arr[1][2] in Python = 6. Always clarify in exam.
(b) np.zeros(), np.ones(), np.arange() (1 Mark)
np.zeros(4)→ creates array of 4 zeros:[0. 0. 0. 0.]np.ones((2,3))→ 2×3 array of all onesnp.arange(1, 10, 2)→ [1, 3, 5, 7, 9] — like Python range but returns NumPy array

Section C — Long Answer Type Questions (25 Marks)
Q.17 — Python Data Types + String Program 5 Marks
Q.17 — Option A: Data Types + Palindrome5 Marks
📊 Marking: Part (a) = 3 marks (1 each) | Part (b) = 2 marks
(a-i) List
# List — ordered, mutable, allows duplicates
fruits = ["apple", "mango", "banana", "mango"]
print(fruits[0]) # indexing → apple
fruits.append("grape") # built-in: append
fruits.sort() # built-in: sort
(a-ii) Tuple
# Tuple — ordered, immutable, faster than list
coords = (26.9, 75.8) # lat/long — shouldn't change
print(coords[0]) # indexing → 26.9
print(coords.count(26.9)) # built-in: count
print(coords.index(75.8)) # built-in: index
Preferred when: data is fixed/constant (days of week, RGB values, GPS coords).
(a-iii) Dictionary
# Dictionary — key-value pairs, mutable, unordered
emp = {'id': 101, 'name': 'Amit', 'salary': 45000}
print(emp['name']) # accessing → Amit
print(emp.keys()) # built-in: keys
print(emp.values()) # built-in: values
(b) Count Vowels + Palindrome Check (2 Marks)
# Count vowels and check palindrome
s = input("Enter a string: ").lower()
# Count vowels
vowels = "aeiou"
count = sum(1 for ch in s if ch in vowels)
print("Total vowels:", count)
# Check palindrome
if s == s[::-1]:
print(s, "is a Palindrome")
else:
print(s, "is NOT a Palindrome")
Enter a string: madam
Total vowels: 2
madam is a Palindrome
Enter a string: hello
Total vowels: 2
hello is NOT a Palindrome
Q.17 — Option B: Mutable/Immutable + Second Largest5 Marks
(a-i) Mutable vs Immutable
Mutable = can be changed after creation. Example: L=[1,2,3]; L[0]=10 → L=[10,2,3] ✅
Immutable = cannot be changed. Example: T=(1,2,3); T[0]=10 → TypeError
Mutable types: List, Dictionary, Set | Immutable: Integer, Float, String, Tuple
(a-ii) Type Conversion
- Implicit: Python automatically converts —
x = 5 + 2.0→ x = 7.0 (int auto-promoted to float) - Explicit: Programmer manually converts —
x = int("42")→ x = 42 (string to int)
(a-iii) is / is not vs ==
==checks value equality — are the values same ?ischecks identity — do they point to the same object in memory ?
a = [1,2]; b = [1,2]
print(a == b) # True — same values
print(a is b) # False — different objects in memory
(b) Second Largest without max()/sort() (2 Marks)
n = int(input("How many numbers? "))
lst = []
for i in range(n):
lst.append(int(input("Enter: ")))
first = second = float('-inf')

if num > first:
second = first
first = num
elif num > second and num != first:
second = num
print("Second largest:", second)
List: [10, 45, 23, 67, 34]
Second largest: 45

# (ii) Elements divisible by 5
print("Divisible by 5:", arr[arr % 5 == 0])
# (iii) Replace elements < 20 with 0
arr[arr < 20] = 0
print("Final array:", arr)
Array: [34 7 45 12 50 18 25 3 40 16]
Divisible by 5: [45 50 25 40]
Final array: [34 0 45 0 50 0 25 0 40 0]
💡 Boolean indexing:
arr[arr % 5 == 0] — condition inside square brackets selects only elements satisfying the condition. arr[condition] = 0 replaces those elements. This is one of the most important NumPy exam topics.Marking Scheme Summary

💡 Score More — IP Golden Rules:
- SQL: Write all keywords in CAPITALS. Always end with semicolon. Mention column names explicitly —
SELECT *gets fewer marks than named columns. - NumPy: Always write
import numpy as npfirst. Show output after each print statement if asked. - Python: Indentation = 4 spaces. Write comments — examiners reward documented code.
- GROUP BY: Whenever aggregate function (SUM, AVG, MAX) is used with another column → GROUP BY is mandatory.
- LIKE operator:
%= any number of characters |_= exactly one character. Very common in exam.
