Python for Everybody 5.2 assignment - baba04201 - Oct-07-2017 Hey guys- I'm on my last assignment for Python and I need some expert assistance please. This is the assignment: 5.2 Write a program that repeatedly prompts a user for integer numbers until the user enters 'done'. Once 'done' is entered, print out the largest and smallest of the numbers. If the user enters anything other than a valid number catch it with a try/except and put out an appropriate message and ignore the number. Enter 7, 2, bob, 10, and 4 and match the output below. This is my code: largest = None smallest = None while True: try: num = raw_input("Enter a number: ") if num == "done": break print (num) num = int(num) if largest is None or largest < num: largest = num elif smallest is None or smallest > num: smallest = num except ValueError: print("Please, enter only numbers.") print ("Maximum", largest) print ("Minimum", smallest)This is the Desired output: Invalid input Maximum is 10 Minimum is 2 This is my output: 7 ← Mismatch 2 bob Please, enter only numbers. 10 4 Maximum 10 Minimum 2 I need help please. RE: Python for Everybody 5.2 assignment - Lux - Oct-07-2017 What's wrong with the output you're getting?

Check out my screenshot below: 5.2py assignment screenshot I'm stumped. I'm tried everything I know to no avail. Desperately need some help on this. Thank you all! RE: Python for Everybody 5.2 assignment - Lux - Oct-07-2017 Well, the line print(num) seems to be why it's printing all the numbers- not sure if it's supposed to do that.
RE: Python for Everybody 5.2 assignment - baba04201 - Oct-07-2017 That did fix part of the problem, but the output is a still mismatch. The desired output is the same; but something is still not right... Screenshot: Screenshot of assignment and code with error: Thanks again for your time. RE: Python for Everybody 5.2 assignment - Lux - Oct-07-2017 I found that website and tried it- you're doing everything right, but it wants you to say "Maximum is" instead of just "Maximum". RE: Python for Everybody 5.2 assignment - baba04201 - Oct-07-2017 Lux, I cannot thank you enough for helping me get through this! That was it! Thank you, gratefully! RE: Python for Everybody 5.2 assignment - zaid03 - May-31-2018 you need to get the output exactly as mentioned. here's my code: largest = None smallest = None while True: try: num = input("Enter a number: ") if num == "done": break num = int(num) if largest is None or largest < num: largest = num elif smallest is None or smallest > num: smallest = num except ValueError: print("Invalid input") print ("Maximum is", largest) print ("Minimum is", smallest) RE: Python for Everybody 5.2 assignment - Shubham - Dec-12-2019 [quote="baba04201" pid="27251" dateline="1507391893"]Hey guys- I'm on my last assignment for Python and I need some expert assistance please.

[/q Here is my solution to this problem: largest = None smallest = None while True: inp = raw_input("Enter a number: ") if inp == "done" : break try: num = int(inp) except: print("Invalid input") if smallest is None: smallest = num elif num < smallest: smallest = num elif num > largest: largest = num continue print(("Maximum is"), largest) print(("Minimum is"), smallest) RE: Python for Everybody 5.2 assignment - vis1999 - Apr-07-2020 please, solve my problem, when i put the term in output block(7,2,bob,10,2)again it ask enter a num and not show the result |
