Beginning Python (Video 37)

This video tutorial explains how to create a simple Python module to calculate the volumes of 3D shapes like spheres, cubes, and cones. It covers the process of writing functions in a separate file, importing the module into another file, and using the DIR function to explore module contents. The tutorial highlights the benefits of modular programming, such as better code organization and manageability, especially in larger projects.

What is the purpose of the DIR function in Python?

• To rename a module

• To create a new module

• To list the contents of a module

• To delete a module

Which formula is used to calculate the volume of a sphere?

• Length × Width × Height

• Pi × Radius² × Height

• 4/3 × Pi × Radius³

• Base Area × Height

What parameters are needed to calculate the volume of a cube?

• Radius and Height

• Length, Width, and Height

• Base and Height

• Diameter and Height

How can you import all functions from a module in Python?

• import module_name

• from module_name import *

• import all from module_name

• import * from module_name

What is the benefit of splitting a program into multiple files?

• It automatically optimizes the code

• It makes the program run faster

• It reduces the size of the program

• It allows for easier logical separation and management
