Answer:
def minfunction(mylist):
min = mylist[0]
for i in mylist:
if i < min:
min = i
print("The minimum is: "+str(min))
def anotherfunction():
mylist = []
n = int(input("Length of list: "))
for i in range(n):
listelement = int(input(": "))
mylist.append(listelement)
minfunction(mylist)
anotherfunction()
Explanation:
This solution is implemented in Python
This defines the min function
def minfunction(mylist):
This initializes the minimum element to the first index element
min = mylist[0]
This iterates through the list
for i in mylist:
This checks for the minimum
if i < min:
... and assigns the minimum to variable min
min = i
This prints the minimum element
print("The minimum is: "+str(min))
This defines a separate function. This separate function is used to input items into the list
def anotherfunction():
This defines an empty list
mylist = []
This prompts user for length of list
n = int(input("Length of list: "))
The following iteration inputs elements into the list
<em> for i in range(n):</em>
<em> listelement = int(input(": "))</em>
<em> mylist.append(listelement)</em>
This calls the minimum function
minfunction(mylist)
The main starts here and this calls the separate function
anotherfunction()
