    Q1.

    To validate the input and ensure that the date is in the correct format, we would need
    to use Python's datetime module. The datetime module provides classes for working with
    dates and times. We can use the strptime() method to parse the input string into a datetime
    object and then check if the input is a valid date.
    import datetime

    def is_valid_date(date_str):
    """
    Checks if the input string is a valid date in the format yyyy-mm-
    dd.

    Args:
    date_str (str): The input string to be validated.

    Returns:
    bool: True if the input is a valid date, False otherwise.
    """
    try:
    datetime.datetime.strptime(date_str, '%Y-%m-%d')
    return True
    except ValueError:
    return False

    print(is_valid_date('2023-04-28'))
    print(is_valid_date('2023-04-31'))
    print(is_valid_date('2023/04/28'))
    print(is_valid_date('23-04-28'))

    True
    False
    False
    False

    Q2. The function first checks if the list is empty. If it is, it returns a tuple of None for both
    highest and lowest. Otherwise, it sets both the highest and lowest variables to the first
    element of the list. It then loops through the remaining elements of the list, updating the
    highest and lowest variables accordingly.
    def find_high_low(lst):
    """
    This function takes in a list of integers and returns the highest
    and lowest values in the list.
    Args:
    - lst: A list of integers
    Returns:
    - A tuple containing the highest and lowest values in the list,
    respectively.
    """
    if not lst:
    return None, None
    else:
    highest = lst[0]
    lowest = lst[0]
    for num in lst:
    if num > highest:
    highest = num
    if num < lowest:
    lowest = num
    return highest, lowest

    # Test cases
    print(find_high_low([1, 2, 3, 4, 5]))
    print(find_high_low([-1, -2, -3, -4, -5]))
    print(find_high_low([10, 20, 30, 40, -50]))
    print(find_high_low([5]))
    print(find_high_low([]))

    (5, 1)
    (-1, -5)
    (40, -50)
    (5, 5)
    (None, None)

    Q3. The function first splits the input string by commas using the split() method, which
    returns a list of words as strings. It then uses a list comprehension to strip any leading or
    trailing whitespace from each word using the strip() method.
    def string_to_list(string):
    """
    This function takes in a string of words separated by commas and
    returns a list of words.
    Args:
    - string: A string of words separated by commas
    Returns:
    - A list of words
    """
    split_string = string.split(',')
    stripped_list = [word.strip() for word in split_string]
    return stripped_list

    print(string_to_list(''))
    Q4.
    def is_valid_credit_card_number(number):
    """
    This function takes in a string representing a credit card number
    and checks whether it is valid.
    Args:
    - number: A string representing a credit card number
    Returns:
    - True if the credit card number is valid, False otherwise
    """
    number = number.replace(' ', '').replace('-', '')
    if not number.isdigit():
    return False
    if not 13 <= len(number) <= 16:
    return False

    total = 0
    for i in range(len(number)-1, -1, -1):
    digit = int(number[i])
    if i % 2 == len(number) % 2:
    digit *= 2
    if digit > 9:
    digit -= 9
    total += digit

    return total % 10 == 0

    # Test cases
    print(is_valid_credit_card_number('4111-1111-1111-1111'))
    print(is_valid_credit_card_number('6011-1111-1111-1117'))
