When a Python program is run, one module is the “main” module, and all others need to be import.  When code in that main module is executing, what is the name of the built-in variable __name__?  You answer must be exact!

This question is a free point, since your answer doesn’t matter as long as you provide one. Just out of curiosity, did answering the previous question make you change your answer to the one before it?  (Answer “yes” or “no”.)

What will this program print? def subtract(a, b):     return a – b def main():     a = 7     b = 3     result = subtract(b, a)     print(result) if __name__ == “__main__”:     main()

This is the placeholder for the first question on the written portion of the exam.  The text you enter will be ignored (but enter something so that D2L doesn’t flag it as unanswered).
