Python: types and reproducibility

A short retrieval session. Try the questions before revealing the explanations; revisit them after a few days and again in a later week.

01

Recall without looking

What type does csv.DictReader return? Why hash an input? How should a zero denominator behave?

Check and explain

CSV fields begin as strings. Hashes identify bytes, not truth. A zero denominator is undefined and needs an explicit unavailable result; zero is a different claim.

03

Transfer task

Read the retail file, validate IDs/status and sum integer cents from memory. Test a malformed amount and describe the failure policy.

04

Record your next review

Write which concept you missed and one new example. Revisit after 2–3 days, then about a week; adjust the interval to your needs. This is a suggested study routine, not an automated reminder or saved score.

Make the reasoning yours.
