What is the purpose of a higher-order function?
It separates the task of transforming data values from the logic of accumulating the results.
It is a special function that ignores program scope and has access to localized variables.
It allows the definition of specialized ordering logic for data sets.
It is a mutator that can be utilized on functions to remove redundant patterns in code.
Inheritance allows a class to automatically reuse and extend the code of similar but more general classes.
True

True
False
When a Python script is running as a standalone program, what will the __name__ variable be set to?
The variable will be set to "__main__".
The variable will hold the name of the script itself.

What statement accurately reflects the difference between the quotient operator and the division operator?
The quotient operator produces a float, while the division operator produces an integer.
The quotient operator produces an integer, while the division operator produces a float.
The two operators are effectively the same, unless being carried out on strings.
The quotient operator produces a float, while the division operator produces an integer + remainder.
