Question 5 - Short Answer Type Questions (2/3 Marks each) - Chapter 6 Class 11 - Flow of Control

Rewrite the code after correcting the errors.

a = int [“Enter a number

for a: ”] for in range (1, 15)

if a = b

print “Equal numbers”

else

print “Non equal numbers”

Answer:

Corrected code:

a = int (input ( "Enter a number for a: " ))

for b in range ( 1 , 15 ): 

    if (a==b): 

        print ( "Equal numbers" ) 

    else: 

        print ("Non equal numbers")

Explanation:

• a = int [“Enter a number for a: ”] 

Incorrect parentheses and input( ) is missing

• for in range (1, 15) 

Control variable ‘b’ is missing and colon (:) at the end of the statement is also missing.

• if a = b 

For comparing two variables “==” is used. Here only = is used which is an assignment operator. Parentheses and colon (:) are also missing.

• print “Equal numbers” 

Parentheses are missing. print( ) is a method and hence should have opening and closing parentheses.

• else 

Parentheses are missing.

• print “Non equal numbers” 

Parentheses are missing. print( ) is a method and hence should have opening and closing parentheses.
