Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Answer: N is the global identifier.
Reason: N is assigned at the top level with the statement N = 10, which is outside any function. That makes N a module-level (global) name. The other identifiers are defined inside the function and are local.
A: This is the function parameter (FUN(A)), so it is local to the function.
L: This list is created inside the function with L = [], making it a local variable.
i: This is the loop variable in for i in range(2, A); it exists only within the function's scope.
N: Assigned at module level (N = 10), so it is global. Calling FUN(N) passes its value into the function but does not change its global status.
