Question

Python

Question: Define the function high_score that consumes a list of integers (representing scores in a game) and produces an integer representing the highest score in the list. Ignore scores less than 100, and stop processing values if you encounter -999. If the list is empty, return the value None instead. It is up to you to decompose this function (or not) however you want.

Here is my code so far:

from cisc108 import assert_equal

def high_score(scores: [int])->int:
max_num = None
mini = 100
empty_list = []
if scores == empty_list:
return None
  
for score in scores:
if score < mini:
continue
if score == -999:
break
if score > max_num:
max_num = score
return max_num
  
assert_equal(high_score([300, 40, 200, 150]), 300)
assert_equal(high_score([50, 100, 400, -999]), 400)
assert_equal(high_score([600, 800,]), 800)
assert_equal(high_score([300, 200, -999, 400]), 300)

all of my tests are passing except the last one. i need to stop going through the list once -999 is encountered.

from cisc108 import assert_equal

def high_score(scores: [int])->int:

max_num = scores[0]

mini = 100

empty_list = []

if scores == empty_list:

return None

for score in scores:

#return max_num when we found -999

if score==-999:

return max_num

if score < mini:

continue

if score == -999:

break

if score > max_num:

max_num = score

return max_num

assert_equal(high_score([300, 40, 200, 150]), 300)

assert_equal(high_score([50, 100, 400, -999]), 400)

assert_equal(high_score([600, 800,]), 800)

assert_equal(high_score([300, 200, -999, 400]), 300)
