Question

A restaurant recorded the ages of customers on two separate days. You are going to write a program to find the minimum age of a customer. The data is stored in customerAges.
customerAges = [13, 3, 11, 24, 35, 25, 15, 18, 1]
What is the missing line?

minimum = customerAges[0]
for item in customerAges:

a) if minimum >== item:
b)if minimum > item:
c)if minimum < item:

minimum = item


(language is python)

Answer 1

The correct answer is (B)

Answer 2

According to your code, you are setting the first element of the customerAges list as your baseline age. You then use a for loop to check each item in the list to see if it is less than your minimum variable. Then you assign the item to the minimum.

The missing line of code is b, if minimum > item:

I hope this helps!
