[Solved] I am a Python noob and I cannot get the correct output for a tutorial. Can you direct me to the syntax for my function call [closed]

I believe that you are trying for these :

the_array = []
while True:
    sval = input('Enter a number: ')
    if sval == 'done':
        break
    try:
        ival = int(sval)
        the_array.append(ival)
    except:
        print('Invalid input')
        continue

def maximum(values):
    num1 = 0
    for i in values:
        if i >= num1:
            num1 = i
    return num1

def minimum(values):
    num2 = 500000000000000000000 //big number justfor reference to find the lowest
    for i in values:
        if i <= num2:
            num2 = i 
    return num2

print('Maximum is', maximum(the_array))
print('Minimum is', minimum(the_array))

But you may use Built-in function to make your program shorter and much more easier to read:

the_array = []
while True:
    sval = input('Enter a number: ')
    if sval == 'done':
        break
    try:
        ival = int(sval)
        the_array.append(ival)
    except:
        print('Invalid input')
        continue
    
print('Maximum number :', max(the_array))
print('Minimum number :', min(the_array))

I’m not the one line guy but this should get your work done
This is list of Built In function
Goodluck on your python journey
