[Solved] Python number processing trouble

by


Set example_list = list(), then do a for loop where each time you ask for input and add the value to the list via example_list.append(input_response).

Extract the values back out using the same for loop to cycle through the list.

example_list = list()
total = 0
max_value = 0

for stored_number in example_list:
    # Ask for input and store in input_response variable
    example_list.append(input_response)

    # Here is where you could add the values to a counter variable, 
    # as well as check whether they are the maximum
    total += stored_number
    if stored_number > max:
        max_value = stored_number

# Display results

For what you want, you could also just use the built-in functions max and sum:

max_value = max(example_list)
total = sum(example_list)
