Question

Assertion (A): If the arguments in function call statement match the number and order of arguments as defined in the function definition, such arguments are called positional arguments.

Reasoning (R): During a function call, the argument list first contains default argument(s) followed by the positional argument(s).

Options

• Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation for A.

• Both A and R are true and R is not the correct explanation for A.

• A is True but R is False.

• A is false but R is True.

Answer 1

A is True but R is False.

Explanation:

If the arguments in a function call match the number and order of arguments as defined in the function definition, such arguments are called positional arguments.

During a function call, the argument list should first contain the positional argument(s) followed by default argument(s).

Thus,

• The assertion is true.
• The reasoning is false.

So, the correct answer is A is True but R is False.
