Question

Write a Python program:

* Program will use a text file data_xxxxxxx.txt to write 15 numbers in the range of 0 to 100 (one number in each line), where xxxxxxx represents your ID number.

* Then the program will read these values into a list named numbers.

* Call a function get_average( ) and pass the list to it. The function will calculate and return the average back.

* Call a function sort_list( ) to sort scores in the list in ascending order - use any popular algorithm such as bubble sort, insertion sort or merge sort.

* Call a function get_max( ) and pass the list to it. The function will find the highest score and return it back.

* Call a function get_min( ) and pass the list to it. The function will find the lowest score and return it back.

(Your program will not use any pre-written Python functions to find average, max and min. You will write logic for the same)

* Append average, maximum and minimum scores in separate lines into the text file data_xxxxxxx.txt with appropriate messages such as "average score is 90"

Explanation / Answer

code:

from random import randint

def get_average(li):
   summ=0
   for l in li:
       summ+=l
   return float(summ)/float(len(li))  

def sort_list(li):
   li=li.sort()  

def get_max(li):
   maxx = -1000
   for l in li:
       if maxx<l:
           maxx=l
   return maxx      

def get_min(li):
   minn = 1000
   for l in li:
       if minn>l:
           minn=l
   return minn      

fw=open("data_xxxxxxx.txt","w")
li =[]
for i in range(1,15):
   no = randint(0,100)
   li.append(no)
   fw.write(str(no)+' ')
fw.write("average score is: "+ str(get_average(li))+' ')
fw.write("minimum is: "+ str(get_min(li))+' ')
fw.write("maximum is: "+ str(get_max(li))+' ')  
fw.close()

output of file:

31
4
96
76
61
59
6
59
71
93

average score is: 50.8571428571
minimum is: 4
maximum is: 96
