Python Type Conversion, Data Structures and Example Programs
Type Conversion in Python: Types and Examples
Answer:
Type conversion means converting one data type into another. There are two types:
Implicit Type Conversion
Python automatically converts smaller or compatible data types into larger or compatible types to prevent data loss.
x = 10 # int
y = 5.5 # float
z = x + y
print(z) # 15.5
print(type(z)) # <class 'float'>
Explicit Type Conversion
The user manually converts one data type to another using functions like int(), float(), str(),
Industrialization, Imperialism, World War I and the Russian Revolution
Unit 5 — Industrialization: Britain and Spain
British Industrialization Characteristics
- Abundance of coal.
- Significant population growth, which helped develop a domestic market.
- Urban growth and a massive rural exodus.
- The bourgeoisie played a very important role in society.
- A vast colonial empire.
- Advanced political system: the monarchy’s power was limited.
- Relatively flat terrain, facilitating an extensive transport network (canals and roads).
- Important development of the financial sector (banks) and

Week 1: Introduction and “Sinners”
Big Question: How did colonialism shape the idea of “Black religion”?
Religion functions as a political tool of empire, defining who is considered human, rational, or civilized.
Core Logic: Colonialism → Race → “Black Religion” → Fetishism/Primitivism → Dehumanization → Hoodoo as Repair → Sinners reclaims sacred meaning. (Johnson notes that Afro-Euro trade beginning in 1441 marks the origin of racialized religion.)

Computer Networks: Fundamentals and Resource Sharing
A computer network is a system of interconnected computers and other devices that communicate and share resources. Networks allow data and information to be exchanged efficiently among connected devices.
Local Area Network (LAN)
A Local Area Network (LAN) connects computers and devices within a limited geographic area, such as a home, office, or building. LANs offer high data transfer speeds (ranging from 10 Mbps to 1 Gbps or higher), enabling fast

1. Transmission Media Pathways
Transmission media refers to the physical or wireless pathways through which data travels from one device to another in a network. It plays a crucial role in determining the speed, quality, and reliability of communication. Transmission media is broadly classified into two types:
- Guided Media: Includes physical cables like twisted pair, coaxial cable, and optical fiber, where signals travel through a fixed physical path. Optical fiber offers the highest bandwidth and
Spain’s Turning Point: Military, Political, and Social Upheaval of 1917
The Triple Crisis of 1917 in Spain
The serious difficulties facing the policy of the Restoration, combined with the problem of social unrest and military discontent, culminated in a general protest.
The Military Protest and the Juntas de Defensa
The Spanish army had an excessive number of officers. Tension was aggravated by the fact that promotions were made mostly by war merits. The strong discontent among lower and middle-ranking officers led to the formation of the Juntas de Defensa (Councils of

Engineering Problem Solving Methodology
Concepts
Core theories, principles, laws, and assumptions guiding engineering thinking.
Examples of Core Concepts:
- Equilibrium laws
- Conservation laws
- Stress–strain relationships
- Thermodynamic principles
Use them to: Identify what applies to the problem, interpret results, and avoid incorrect assumptions.
Compass
A structured, repeatable approach to solving a problem. Functions like “mental GPS.”
Typical Compass Steps:
- Understand the problem statement.
- Identify knowns
The Emotional Core of ‘Iris’: Vulnerability and Connection
A Personal Interpretation of the Song “Iris”
Dear John Rzeznik,
I hope you are doing well. I want to begin by expressing my sincere admiration for your music and the emotion you bring into your songs.

Energy Classification and Resources
Energy can be classified as primary, secondary, or final energy resources. Primary energy or energy resources are those obtained directly from nature. These are categorized into renewable and non-renewable sources.
Primary Energy Sources
Renewable Energy
Renewable energy sources contain inexhaustible resources. However, they are often not directly applicable to production processes and must be transformed into secondary energy. Examples include:
- Hydro
- Solar
- Wind
- Biomass
- Geothermal
- Tidal
