Question

Assertion (A): The expression "HELLO".sort() in Python will give an error. 
Reason (R): sort() does not exist as a method/function for strings in Python. 
Mark the correct choice: 
 

• A. Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation for (A).
• B. Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is not the correct explanation for (A).
• C. (A) is true but (R) is false.
• D. (A) is false but (R) is true.

Hint:

Use sorted()} to sort characters in a string after converting it to a list using list()}.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

The sort() method is not defined for string objects in Python. It is used for lists, not strings. Therefore, trying to use sort() on a string object like "HELLO" results in an AttributeError, making both the assertion and reasoning true, with (R) correctly explaining (A).
