Chapter 7.3, Problem 9CP
Program Plan Intro
List slicing:
- • Slicing is a concept of selecting a range of elements from a list.
- • In Python, an expression that selects a subsection of a list is known as a slice.
- • A slice is a span of elements that are taken from a list.
- • Normally, the slice expression has a start index and an end index for slicing.
Syntax:
In Python, the list slice statement can be expressed as follows:
listname[start:end]
Explanation:
In the list slice syntax,
- • The “start” represents the index of the first data in the slice.
- • The “end” represents the index that marks the end of the slice.
- • The list slice expression returns a list having a copy of data from index “start” up to index “end-1”.

reverse_number_in_list(number_list:list)-> list
This function will be given a list of numbers your job is to reverse all the numbers in the list and return a list with the reversed numbers. If a number ends with 0 you need to remove all the trailing zeros before reversing the number. An example of reversing numbers with trailing zeros: 10 -> 1, 590 -> 95. None of the numbers in the number_list will be less than 1.
Example:
number_list = [13, 45, 690, 57]
output = [31, 54, 96, 75]
paython programing question
Write a program that creates a list of N elements (Hint: use append() function), swaps the first and the last element and prints the list on the screen. N should be a dynamic number entered by the user.
Sample output:
How many numbers would you like to enter?: 5
Enter a number: 34
Enter a number: 67
Enter a number: 23
Enter a number: 90
Enter a number: 12
The list is: [12, 67,23, 90, 34]

This function takes a list (always nine elements in length) as a parameter. The function displays 3 lines in total. An example of the output is as shown below: 123456789 --------- $ $$ $ The first line shows the digits 1 to 9 (as indicated in the example output above). The second line shows a single line of 9 "-" symbols (hyphens). The third line shows the coins list, formatted as in the examples.

The function should accept a list as a parameter. Parts of the program which you are not coding will call the function and past it lists of words. The function must analyze the words in the list and return all the words which are 6 or more characters long. The returned list should be in alphabetical order. NB: Only write the function. Do not call it. For example: Test Result random_words1 = find_big_words(["nation", "night", "news", "negotiation", "newspaper", "nature"]) print(random_words1) ['negotiation', 'newspaper'] random_words3 = find_big_words(["examination","test", "testing", "quiz", "exam", "assessment"]) print(random_words3) ['assessment', 'examination', 'testing']arrow_forward
