What is the value of the variable index after the Python code below is executed? word = 'bAnana'index = word.find('a')Question 2Select one:a.3b.1c.2d.5e.0

Break Down the Problem

1. The problem provides a Python code snippet and asks for the value of the variable index after it executes.
2. We need to analyze the string 'bAnana' and determine the result of the find('a') method.

Relevant Concepts

1. The find() method in Python searches for a substring ('a' in this case) and returns the lowest index of its occurrence within the string.
2. If the substring is not found, find() returns -1.

Analysis and Detail

1. The string word is defined as 'bAnana'.

2. The find('a') method specifically looks for the lowercase letter 'a'.

3. The positions of characters in the string are as follows:

   • Index 0: 'b'
   • Index 1: 'A'
   • Index 2: 'n'
   • Index 3: 'a'
   • Index 4: 'n'
   • Index 5: 'a'

4. The first occurrence of lowercase 'a' is at index 3.

Verify and Summarize

• We can confirm that the first lowercase 'a' is indeed found at index 3 in the string 'bAnana'.

Final Answer

The value of the variable index is 3. Thus, the correct option is a. 3.
