Question

Design a program that asks the user to enter a series of 20 numbers. The program should store the numbers in a list and then display the following data: • The lowest number in the list • The highest number in the list • The total of the numbers in the list • The average of the numbers in the list

Answer 1

Answer:

The following are the program in the Python Programming Language.

#declare the list  

lst=[]

#set the for loop  

for num in range(1,21):

 #get the element of the list from the user

 n=int(input('Enter the {} element :' .format(num)))

 #add elements in the list

 lst.append(n)

print()

#print the minimum number in list

print('The lowest number in the list: ',min(lst))

#print the maximum number in list

print('The highest number in the list: ',max(lst))

#print the total of the list

print('The total of the numbers in the list: ',sum(lst))

#print the average of the list

print('The average of the numbers in the list: ',sum(lst)/len(lst))

Output:

Enter the 1 element :53

Enter the 2 element :65

Enter the 3 element :41

Enter the 4 element :23

Enter the 5 element :21

Enter the 6 element :12

Enter the 7 element :96

Enter the 8 element :85

Enter the 9 element :74

Enter the 10 element :98

Enter the 11 element :75

Enter the 12 element :41

Enter the 13 element :54

Enter the 14 element :56

Enter the 15 element :36

Enter the 16 element :25

Enter the 17 element :14

Enter the 18 element :12

Enter the 19 element :45

Enter the 20 element :65

The lowest number in the list:  12

The highest number in the list:  98

The total of the numbers in the list:  991

The average of the numbers in the list:  49.55

Explanation:

The following are the description of the program.

• Firstly, we declare the empty list type variable 'lst' to store elements.
• Then, set the for loop statement that iterates from 1 and end at 20.
• Then, set a variable that get elements of the list from the user and appends those user defined inputs in the list type variable 'lst'.
• Finally, print the lowest and the largest elements in the list as well as print the total and average of the elements in the list.
