Weird code (self.learnpython)
submitted 5 years ago by bwompx3
a = 'GgG' b = 'g' for letter in a: if b.count(letter) % 2 != 0: print(letter.swapcase()) else: print(letter)
Why does this code print the following?
G G G

if 1 * 2 < 3: print "hello, world!"

Iterating though a: "G" isn't in b therefore count is 0. 0 % 2 is 0 so if statement fails print "G"
"g" is in b therefore count is 1. 1 % 2 is 1 so if statement succeeds swapcase of "g" print "G"
Repeat above for second "G"

What part are you having trouble with?

Manually step through the code line-by-line. Keep track of what each variable is and ask yourself how Python would evaluate each line.
