# Python Starter Quiz
# Try your best to answer these questions. It’s just an assessment so I can get
# a feel for the level of Python skills in the class. No stress and no grade for this :)
 
# Question 1 : 
# Print out “Coding is awesome :)”

print "Coding is awesome :)"

# Question 2: 
# Print the first 50 even numbers greater than 900

nums = []
i = 901
while len(nums) < 50:
    if i % 2 == 0:
        nums.append(i)
    i += 1
for num in nums:
    print num

# Question 3: 
# Print “The number you have inputted plus 5 is: <their number + 5>”. 
# We’ve given you code to read in the number
 
mynumber = float(raw_input("Please enter a number:"))

print "The number you have inputted is : " + str(mynumber+5) 
# Question 4:
# print a list of 1000 1’s : [1,1,1,1,1,1] … 
print [1]*1000

# Question 5:
# Make a function that given two lists returns the combined list.
# e.g : merge([1,2,3], [4,5,6]) … would give you [1,2,3,4,5,6]

def merge(a, b):
    return a  + b
print([1,2,3], [4,5,6])
  
# Question 6:
# Make a function that takes in dictionary and a value, if that value is in the dictionary
# it returns the keys corresponding to the value
# e.g : my_dict = { “A”: 7, “B”: 3 , “C”: 7} …  find(my_dict, 7) would yield  [“A”, “C”]
 
def find(my_dict, value):
    ret = []
    for key in my_dict:
        if my_dict[key] == value:
            ret.append(key)
    return ret

print find({ "A": 7, "B": 3 , "C": 7}, 7)
