I've this assignment in Python 3 where I get a list of numbers and using at least a for loop I need to find the min, max, sum, and average of the numbers. But the tricky part is that I can only use the len() function, no while loops, def/return, max/min, just len() and for loops, can do if/else statements tho. So please let's say this is the list.
numbers=[1,35,54,99,67,2,9]
biggest= numbers[0]
smallest=numbers[0]
for bigs in range(1,len(numbers)):
if numbers[bigs] > biggest:
biggest = numbers [bigs]
print("The max number is", biggest)
for smalls in range(1,len(numbers)):
if numbers[smalls] < smallest:
smallest = numbers [smalls]
print("The min number is", smallest)
That's what I have for max and min and it does work, a bit messy but it works, but I've no clue how to do sum and average. How could I do all that using only for loops and len()? Thanks!
If you are allowed to store values you could do something like:
smallest = numbers[0]
biggest = numbers[0]
total = 0
for num in numbers:
if num < smallest:
smallest = num
elif num > biggest:
biggest = num
total += num
average = total / len(numbers)
