class Expressions:
    """"
    Fill in one-line expressions (no own functions) to initialize attributes
    self.b .. self.k with specified values.

    Use Python built-in functions, list expressions and list comprehension,
    but NOT own functions.

    Complete tasks one after another. Once you are done with one task,
    uncomment test cases in test_expressions.py. Remove comments for
      # Test_case_b = Test_case
      # Test_case_c = Test_case
      # Test_case_d = Test_case
      # ...
    Run tests in IDE and in a terminal:
      python test_expressions.py
      python -m unittest
