Question

Write a program that asks the user for several days' temperatures and computes the average temperature for that period and how many days were above average. First ask the user how many days he\she wants to calculate the average for. Then create an array with that number and ask for the temperature of each day. Store the temps in the array. Then find the average and the number of days above that average. Print the results to the screen.

Answer 1

Answer:

#section 1

no_of_days= int(input('How many days are we geting the average for: '))

tem=[]

for i in range(no_of_days):

   a= int(input('Enter temperaure: input ' + str(i+1)+'  :'))

   tem.append(a)

#section 2    

average = round(sum(tem)/len(tem),2)

print('The Average is ',average)

gdays=[]

for i in tem:

   if i > average:

       gdays.append(i)

print('The following days are greater than the average: ',gdays)

Explanation:

The above code is written in python 3

#section 1:

An input is gotten for number of days that is to be used in the calculation, and an array is created to hold the temperature that will be inputted into the program.

A range of values from [0 - (no_of_days - 1)] is created from the number of days entered, this is done so that the FOR loop can iterate through every number and call for inputs.

The FOR loop prompts the user for an input based on the range and passes that input to an integer data type before appending it to the tem array.

#section 2:

The sum of the new list and the length is used to calculate the average and the it is rounded up to 2 DP, The average is then printed to the screen.

Another FOR loop is used to check which of the days are greater than the average and passes it to another array (gdays), this array is also printed to the screen.
