list = [1, 2, 3, 4, 6]

Question

list = [1, 2, 3, 4, 6]
if len(list)%2 !=0:
print(list[max(list)%4])
else:
print(list[min(list)])
OUTPUT: 3

# If the length of the list, when divided by two, has remainders that do not equal zero we go to else ( 1 and 3 when divided by two do not have 0 remainders, so we go to else).
#print(list[min(list)])? Two, four and six are the minimum numbers when divided by 2 with a remainder zero? Is that what's going on? Any help appreciated.

Answer 1

I don't see where's the point of confusion here.
Let's break it down.
if len(list) %2! =0
here, len(list) = 5 and 5%2 is not equal to 0, hence the condition is true.
Now list[max(list)%4]
here, max(list) =6, and 6%4= 2 and list[2] is 3. Hence the output 3.
