Au Coe QP: Question Paper Code

The document is a question paper for a Civil Engineering exam on Problem Solving and Python Programming. It contains 15 multiple choice and long answer questions assessing students' knowledge of algorithms, Python syntax, data types, control structures, functions, exceptions, file handling and data structures like lists and tuples. Students are asked to write Python code to solve problems related to prime numbers, factorials, binary search, sorting, and file operations. They are also asked conceptual questions about algorithms, Python program structure, operators, and exception handling.
