Question

question # 2

fill in the blank

complete the code that will give the output shown.

>> (2.7)

3

Explanation:

Analyze the input and output

The image shows a Python interactive shell prompt.
The input is a function call with the argument 2.7 inside parentheses:
>>> [blank](2.7)
The output shown directly below the command is:
3

Identify the matching Python function

We need to find a built-in Python function that takes a float like 2.7 and returns the integer 3.

• The round() function rounds a number to a specified number of decimals (default is 0 decimals, returning an integer in Python 3).
• round(2.7) rounds 2.7 to the nearest integer, which is 3.
• Other possibilities like math.ceil require importing the math module first, but this is a single built-in function call similar to the abs(-5) example shown at the top of the image. Therefore, the standard built-in function round is the correct fit.

Answer:

Complete the code that will give the output shown.

>>> <blank>round</blank>(2.7)
