I stand with the majority to choose A

[5, 5, 5]. The string will repeat. 😎

[5, 5, 5] In Python, multiplying a list by 3 repeats the list three times. It does not multiply each element by 3

"x * 3" duplicates the list([5]) three times, hence [5,5,5].

555

Is it the [] that makes python treat it as a set and not a value

the asterisk operator doesn just repeat the value, it creates a new list object with three references to the same integer 5, which is why the memory footprint stays small until you mutate the inner elements

تبارك الله عليك، سؤال زوين! الجواب هو [5, 5, 5] ياك؟

If you try same thing for numpy array. [15] will be answer. import numpy as np x = np.array([5]) print(x * 3)

[5, 5, 5]
Multiplying a list by an integer repeats the list
x * 3 joins three copies of x into a new list
