List functions

You’re analyzing a data set and need to remove the outliers (the smallest and largest values. The data is stored in a list). Complete the code to remove the smallest and largest elements from the list and output the sum of the remaining numbers.

Veena Tirmal Hint:- 1 - remove min value using min function 2 - remove max value using max function 3 - get sum using sum function. You can remove min and max value using remove function.

Veena Tirmal there's only one thing, the "max" and "min" are functions of a list not its methods Thus, they can't be used alone. you have to specify the lists to be evaluated, i.e max(list_name)... in your case, max(data)

Preferably by using python, try: nums_list=[1,2,3,4,5,6] sum=0 #removing the items with highest and lowest values in the list nums_list.remove(max(nums)) nums_list.remove(min(nums)) #adding the remaining items for a in nums_list: sum+=a print(sum) The list is just an example. Feel free to correct me anyone, in case of an error

// To find Max int max=0; for(int i=0;i<lenth;i++) // lenth = size of list { if(max<list[i]) { max = list[i]; } } // After execution of for loop max have a value who is maximum in the list. // To find Min int min=list[0]; for(int i=0;i<lenth;i++) // lenth = size of list { if(min>=list[i]) { min = list[i]; } } // After execution of for loop min have a value who is minum in the list. // Then just remove max and min using the Remove function. // To find Sum int sum=0; for(int i=0;i<lenth;i++) // lenth = size of list { sum = sum+list[i]; } // After execution of for loop sum have a value of summation of the list.
