Q: What year did the Treaty of Westphalia end the Thirty Years' War, and name two of its key provisions.

A: The Peace of Westphalia was signed in 1648, ending the Thirty Years' War. Two key provisions:

State sovereignty — each state had exclusive right to govern its internal affairs (religion and military), laying the foundation for the modern sovereign-state system.

Religious tolerance — extended the Peace of Augsburg to recognize Calvinism alongside Lutheranism and Catholicism, ending decades of religious warfare in the Holy Roman Empire.

Q: Find the bug in this Python:

python
1def merge(a, b): 2 result = [] 3 i, j = 0, 0 4 while i < len(a) and j < len(b): 5 if a[i] < b[j]: 6 result.append(a[i]) 7 i += 1 8 else: 9 result.append(b[j]) 10 i += 1 11 result.extend(a[i:]) 12 result.extend(b[j:]) 13 return result

A: The bug is in the else branch. When a[i] >= b[j], the code appends b[j] but increments i instead of j. The wrong pointer advances, later iterations re-read b[j], and the function eventually walks off the end of a. Fix: change i += 1 in the else branch to j += 1.
