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]
dict = { 'a': [1,2,3,4] 'b': [3,6,7,8] 'c': [9,1,9,1]{
Iterate over the above dictionary 1- display letter and highest value2- display letter and mean of values in corresponding list3- display the letter that the highest value among all lists
Example output:highest value in each letters lista : 4b : 8c : 9
Mean value for each letter:a : 2.5b : 6c : 5

You can assume that the input file only one number per line. You can assume the user always enter a file that exists. The median is the value in the middle of a sorted list. To sort a list, use list.sort() function. It’s computed as below. For a list of odd length, the middle number is just the length divide by 2. For the list, [1,2,3], the median is 2 since 2 is in the middle of the list. The middle index is 3//2, which is 1. Remember that // is the integer division operator. When the length of the list is even, there are two middle numbers. The median is the average of the two middle numbers. For example, [1,2,3,4], the median is (2+3)/2 = 2.5. The two middle indexes for this example are (4//2)-1 = 1 and (4//2) = 2. Functions you need to write: read_grades() Prompts…arrow_forward
