largest = None
smallest = None
while True:
num = input("Enter a number: ")
if num == "done" :
break
try:
n=int (num)
if largest is None:
largest=n
elif largest<n:
largest =n

if smallest is None:
smallest=n
elif smallest>n:
smallest=n

except:
print("Invalid input")
continue

print("Maximum is", largest)
print ("Minimum is", smallest)

Thanks a lot. Most helpful video ever seen. Your explanation was very clear and understandable.

[SomeStuff]

wow, I way over complicated my solution. this was very succinct. nice

[suhailayunus]

Thank you for the solution. Can you explain further how these lines produce the smallest value and vice versa? I don't really understand.

if smallest = None:
smallest = n
elif smallest > n:
smallest = n

I am getting a syntax error bad input in line 5, help 🆘

[sakina]

I'm confused how the equalities here work like why did we use largest < n and smallest > n ?

[murtadhaaltai]

This is really amazing, how he is simplifying every bit

[cesarnunez]

I'm having a hard time understanding the flow of the iterations. How is n assigned to the input values given in the problem (7, 2, bob, 10, 4)? I.e., how does the flow of the iteration work with these values in order to calculate the min and max? Thank you.

[markespinoza]

Hey, it's printing out the maximum and minimum as soon as I enter it never waiting for done. what's up with that?

[mohammednasrudheenk]

Can you say what's the actual purpose of try and except functions..?

[anishhushuare]

Sir, it is showing an error in line 19 can anyone help me out?

[markkennedy]

Why cant you just use zero instead of None. I used zero and it worked fine. When i used None, i got an error saying floats cant be compared to None values.

Hello can you help me with the 5.2
Mine is not going through 😢

Hello code is not working plzz helppp meee

[somiaashraf]

largest = None
smallest = None
while True:
num = input(*Enter a number : *)
if num == *done* :
break
try :
n=int (num)
if largest is None :
largest =n
elif largest <n :
largest =n
if smallest is None :
smallest =n
elif smallest >n :
smallest =n
except :
print (*Invalid input*)
continue

mine saying error in line 4, what can be the error, can you guide

[eminberkeaydn]

largest = None
smallest = None
while True:
num = input("Enter a number: ")
if num == "done" :
break
try :
n = int(num)

if largest is None :
largest = n
elif largest < n :
largest = n

if smallest is None :
smallest = n
elif smallest > n :
smallest = n
except :
print("Invalid input")
continue

print("Maximum is ", largest)
print("Minimum is ", smallest)

that program have been executed well but i have a problem in output :
Invalid input
Maximum is 10 ← Mismatch
#why ?
Minimum is 2
