Question

Create a Python program as described below and save it in a file named bool. You should use IDLE or similar environment to create your program. First develop a conceptual model and document it using either pseudo code or a flowchart to meet the requirements of the program described as follows.

Answer 1

PYTHON CODE

# function to compare a and b
def compare(a,b):

    # if a is greater than b , return 1
    if a > b:
        return 1

    # if a and b are equal, return 0
    elif a == b:
        return 0

    # if a less than b , return -1
    elif a < b :
        return -1

# testing
if __name__=="__main__":

    # calling the compare function with a and b
    print('compare(5,2) %d'%compare(5,2))
    print('compare(2,5) %d'%compare(2,5))
    print('compare(3,3) %d'%compare(3,3))

    # getting values for a and b
    a=int(input("Enter the value for a: "))
    b=int(input("Enter the value for b: "))

    print('compare(%d,%d) %d'%(a,b,compare(a,b)))
