In a program, write a function that accepts two arguments: a list, and a number

Question

In a program, write a function that accepts two arguments: a list, and a number n. Assume that the list contains numbers. The function should display all of the numbers in the list that are greater than the number n.

I am writing this program in Python and so far I have this:

#programming exercise 7-6
def main():
    #declare local variables.
    number = 10
    num_list = [2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20]
    #display the number
    print('Number:', number)
    #display the list of numbers.
    print('List of numbers: ', num_list, sep='')
    #display the list of numbers that are larger
    #than the number.
    print('List of numbers that are larger than ',
          number, ':', sep='')
    #call the display_larger_than_n_list function
    #passing a number and a number list as arguments.
    display_larger_than_n_list(number, num_list)
    #the display_larger_than_n_list function accepts two arguments:
    #a list, and a number. The function displays all of the numbers
    #in the list that are greater than the number.
def display_larger_than_n_list(n, n_list):
    #declare an empty list.
    larger_than_n_list = []
    #loop through the value in the list.
    for value in n_list:
        #determine if a value is greater than n.
      
I cannot figure out the next line of code and I was hoping to get a solution to the problem with a detailed explanation. Thank you so much!!!

Explanation / Answer

def display_larger_than_n_list(n, n_list):
    #declare an empty list.
    larger_than_n_list = []
    #loop through the value in the list.
    for value in n_list:

#determine if a value is greater than n.

if value < nlist:

larger_than_n_list=nlist

return larger_than_n_list
