Answer 1

Here. I am a tutor so I tend to go into a lot of details when I explain to make sure things are clear so sorry if you feel I wrote too much. ☺

So, read the comments in the code below

Answer 2

Line 2 definition of bozorge and line 8 usage serves no purpose. max could have been used in 8 instead. To have a reason for something like this, you would have to pick min or max at line 2. Then, lines 8 would save execution as the deciding which function only occurs once, not each time through the loop.
