Find the runner up score , help me in finding the mistake ...

Question

# Given the participants' score sheet for your University Sports Day, you are required to find the runner-up score. You are given scores. Store them in a list and find the score of the runner-up.

# Input Format

# The first line contains n . The second line contains an array of n integers each separated by a space.

# Output Format

# Print the runner-up score.

# Sample Input

# 5
# 2 3 6 6 5
# Sample Output

# 5

Here is my solution 👇👇👇

n = int(input())
a = input().split()
# print(max(a))
m = a[0]
for i in a:
if m<i:
m = i # finding the largest number

m_1 = a[0]
# print(m)
for i in a:
if m_1<i and i<m:
m_1 = i # finding the 2nd largest number
print(m_1)

Answer 2

The way I would have done it
a="2 3 3 4 6 6 5"
b=a.split()
c=max(b)
while c in b:
b.remove(c)
print(b)
print(max(b))

I am trying to understand your solution tho
your solution outputs right result if I am not wrong ,so i don't really understand what is the problem!
Also I think the constraints in this solution would be no use of max? otherwise using max you can find it easily
