Python Exercises 17

1. Write a single program named lister.py as follows. Use the methods described below to avoid point deductions.

In the main function:

• create an empty list named nums.
• use a for loop to add ten integers, each in the range 20 to 80 inclusive, to nums. Duplicates are okay.
• use a while loop to display the ten integers all on one line separated by a single space.
• display the largest integer in the list.
• display the smallest integer in the list.
• make and name a slice from nums that is missing the first and last elements.
• call a void function named process that takes the slice made from nums as an argument.

In the process function:

• sort the slice elements in highest to lowest order.
• display the elements in the slice all on one line separated by a single space. The elements should NOT be displayed inside [ ] separated by commas.

Example Output

79 30 36 33 41 75 43 60 39 53
The highest number is 79
The lowest number is 30
The middle 8 elements sorted high to low:
75 60 43 41 39 36 33 30
