Af unction to test if an input positive integer is equal to the sum of 2 or more integers

Question

I'm super confused about this code I have to write. I must use a function to see if an inputted positive integer is equal to the sum of 2 or more positive integers, printing a list of those values if true and printing false if not. THE INTEGERS THAT ARE EQUAL TO THE INPUTED INTEGER HAVE TO BE ODD.

Answer 1

Since there are no restrictions on how many positive integers there are, or where they come from, the easiest solution is to just express the answer as a sum of 1s, which you can get by multiplying the list [1] by the input:

>>> def is_greater_than_one(n):
...     if n <= 1:
...         print(False)
...     else:
...         print([1] * n)
...
>>> is_greater_than_one(1)
False
>>> is_greater_than_one(2)
[1, 1]
>>> is_greater_than_one(10)
[1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1]

Answer 2

One way might be to put one pointer at index 0 pointing to '1' and other at last index pointing to n-1 (n being inputted number) . Then add the summation to the list if the output is correct . Increment the first pointer , decrement the other work the loop till both pointers point to same number.
