The correct answer is Sample 1.
In Sample 1, the function
process_datauses the unpacking feature of Python to neatly extract a name, an age, and a list of scores from the given arguments. The syntaxname, age, *scores = datacorrectly assigns the first two elements of the data to name and age, and the rest of the elements to scores as a list.Sample 2, however, incorrectly attempts to unpack the data.
This quiz is based on Python's sequence unpacking, which allows for a flexible and readable way to assign values from sequences (like lists or tuples) to variables. This feature is covered in various Python Enhancement Proposals (PEPs) related to tuple unpacking and extended iterable unpacking, such as PEP 3132.
