Question

What is the output of the following? a = 1b = 2if a > b: print(a)else: print(b)

The given code snippet appears to be missing a proper separator between the two assignments. In Python, two statements must be separated by a newline or a semicolon, so 'a = 1b = 2' as written would raise a syntax error and not run.

If we interpret the snippet as intended with two separate statements on consecutive lines (or with a semicolon):
a = 1
b = 2
if a > b:
    print(a)
else:
    print(b)

Then the comparison a > b evaluates to 1 > 2, which is False. When the condition is False, Python executes the else block, which prints the value of b. Since b equals 2, the output would be 2.

Key points to consider:
- Correct statement separation is required for Python to parse the code (newline or semicolon).
- The comparison a > b is false for a = 1 and b = 2, directing execution to the else branch.
- The print statement in the else branch outputs the value of b, which preserves the final output as 2 when the code is syntactically valid.

If the code remains exactly as written without adding a separator, the interpreter will raise a syntax error and no output will be produced.
