divisors is greater than the number itself. Write a program to find out, if the given number is abundant. (Input:
12, Sum of divisors of 12 = 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 6 = 16, sum of divisors 16 > original number 12)

3: LIST
a. Read a list of numbers and print the numbers divisible by x but not by y (Assume x = 4 and y = 5).
b. Read a list of numbers and print the sum of odd integers and even integers from the list.(Ex: [23, 10, 15, 14,
63], odd numbers sum = 101, even numbers sum = 24)
c. Read a list of numbers and print numbers present in odd index position. (Ex: [10, 25, 30, 47, 56, 84, 96], The
numbers in odd index position: 25 47 84).
d. Read a list of numbers and remove the duplicate numbers from it. (Ex: Enter a list with duplicate
elements: 10 20 40 10 50 30 20 10 80, The unique list is: [10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 80])

4: TUPLE
a. Given a list of tuples. Write a program to find tuples which have all elements divisible by K from a list of
tuples. test_list = [(6, 24, 12), (60, 12, 6), (12, 18, 21)], K = 6, Output : [(6, 24, 12), (60, 12, 6)]
b. Given a list of tuples. Write a program to filter all uppercase characters tuples from given list of tuples.
(Input: test_list = [(“GFG”, “IS”, “BEST”), (“GFg”, “AVERAGE”), (“GfG”, ), (“Gfg”, “CS”)], Output :
[(„GFG‟, „IS‟, „BEST‟)]).
c. Given a tuple and a list as input, write a program to count the occurrences of all items of the list in the tuple.
(Input : tuple = ('a', 'a', 'c', 'b', 'd'), list = ['a', 'b'], Output : 3)

5: SET
a. Write a program to generate and print a dictionary that contains a number (between 1 and n) in the form (x,
x*x).
b. Write a program to perform union, intersection and difference using Set A and Set B.
c. Write a program to count number of vowels using sets in given string (Input : “Hello World”, Output: No. of
vowels : 3)
d. Write a program to form concatenated string by taking uncommon characters from two strings using set
concept (Input : S1 = "aacdb", S2 = "gafd", Output : "cbgf").

6: DICTIONARY
a. Write a program to do the following operations:
i. Create a empty dictionary with dict() method
ii. Add elements one at a time
iii. Update existing key‟s value
iv. Access an element using a key and also get() method
v. Deleting a key value using del() method
b. Write a program to create a dictionary and apply the following methods:
i. pop() method
ii. popitem() method
iii. clear() method
c. Given a dictionary, write a program to find the sum of all items in the dictionary.
d. Write a program to merge two dictionaries using update() method.

7: STRINGS
a. Given a string, write a program to check if the string is symmetrical and palindrome or not. A string is said
to be symmetrical if both the halves of the string are the same and a string is said to be a palindrome string if
one half of the string is the reverse of the other half or if a string appears same when read forward or backward.
b. Write a program to read a string and count the number of vowel letters and print all letters except 'e' and 's'.
