PCEP – Certified Entry-Level Python Programmer Certification: PCEP-30-02 Practice Test

All 260 questions are based on individual topics in the syllabus and all topics have been covered. Each and every topic in the syllabus have a corresponding question with sufficient representation.

Questions in the Practice tests are much more difficult than what is included in the Certified Entry-Level Python Programmer Certification. I recommend doing hands-on to test the validity of the answers and emphasize on the importance of coding different permutations and combinations on the examples given.

All questions will be easier to understand if the code is run on IDLE or your favorite Python IDE if you have another preference.
