Lab #10

1

Write a code to swap the content of two variables, such as:

a = 3
b = 29

2

Write a function that will take two strings as parameters and return their concatenation.

3

Give an example if values for a, b and c that will cause the code to print X and Y.

def dumb_function(a,b,c):
if a < b and a < c:
    print("W")
else:
    print("X")
    if b == c:
        print("Y")
    elif b < c:
        print("Z")
    else:
        print("Q")

4

Write a function findMinIndex(aList) that takes a list, searches the list for the index of the smallest element in the list, and return the index. If there are multiple copies if the smallest element return the first one.

You may not use the built-in functions min, index, find, etc.

def findMinIndex(aList):
    # Implement here

5

Write a function printDownRight(mat) that will print out all the contents of a 2D matrix mat along the diagonal starting at the top left and ending at the bottom right.
