Question

Problem 5 Given a list a, the max function in Python's standard library computes the largest element in a: max(a) . Similarly, min(a) returns the smallest element in a . Write your own my_max and my_min functions. In [ ]: # YOUR CODE HERE raise Not ImplementedError() In [ ]: # YOUR CODE HERE raise Not ImplementedError() In [ ]: a = [0.28197719, 0.59580708, 0.54095388, 0.44264927, 0.12360858, 0.3067179, 0.33002426, 0.43553806, 0.14259775, 0.01909447] assert_equal(my_max(a), max(a)) assert_equal(my_min(a), min(a))

Answer 1

CODE IN PYTHON:

def my_max(a):
    if a:
        max = a[0]
        for val in a:
            if val > max :
                max = val
        return max
    print("List is empty")


def my_min(a):
    if a:
        min = a[0]
        for val in a:
            if val < min :
                min = val
        return min
    print("List is empty")

a = [0.28197719, 0.59580708, 0.54095388, 0.44264927, 0.12360858, 0.3067179, 0.33002426, 0.43553806, 0.14259775, 0.01909447]
print(my_max(a))
print(my_min(a))

INDENTATION:

def my_max(a): if a: max = a[@] for val in a: if val > max : max = val return max print("List is empty") def my_min(a): if a: min = a[0] for val in a: fon if val < min : min = val return min print("List is empty") a = [0.28197719, 0.59580708, 0.54095388, 0.44264927, 0.12360858, 0.3067179, 0.33002426, 0.43553806, 0.14259775, 0.01909447] print(my_max(a)) print(my_min(a))
