The video tutorial explains how to import modules in Python and the automatic execution of code that occurs when a module is imported. It discusses the use of if statements to control when certain code should run, specifically focusing on the concept of the main module. The tutorial demonstrates how to use the __name__ attribute to determine if a module is being run directly or imported, allowing for conditional execution of code. This approach helps prevent unnecessary code execution when a module is imported into another module.

What happens when a module is imported in Python?

• The module's code is ignored.

• The module's code is automatically executed.

• The module's code is deleted.

• The module's code is commented out.

Why might unwanted code execution occur when importing a module?

• Because Python skips import statements.

• Because Python only runs print statements.

• Because Python automatically runs all code in the module.

• Because Python requires manual execution of code.

How can you prevent unnecessary code execution when importing a module?

• By using a for loop.

• By wrapping code in an if statement checking the module's name.

• By using a while loop.

• By using a try-except block.

What does the `__name__` attribute represent when a module is run directly?

• The string '__main__'.

• The module's author.

• The module's file path.

• The module's version number.

What condition can be used to check if a module is being run as the main program?

• if __name__ == '__import__'

• if __name__ == '__main__'

• if __name__ == '__module__'

• if __name__ == '__execute__'
