# write a program to read the scores of n players and display total score,min score # max score(max,min score expltn needed)

Question

n=int(input("Enter how many players?")) # 5
scores=[]
for i in range(n): # 0 1 2 3 4
score=int(input("Enter score"))
scores.append(score)

print(f'Scores are {scores}')
total=0
for s in scores:
total=total+s

print(f'Total score is {total}')
maxscore=0
minscore=0
for s in scores:
if s>maxscore:
maxscore=s
print(f'maximum score {maxscore}')
for i in range(n): # 0 1 2 3 4
if i==0:
minscore=scores[0]
elif scores[i]<minscore:
minscore=scores[i]
print(f'minimum score {minscore}')

Answer 1

Check in your code, from
for i in range(5) :
print(i, scores[i] )
# i used for index
# scores[I] represents values

Answer 2

I need minimum score explaination can any one

Answer 3

First it set minscore = scores[0]
And any other value are tested minscore<scores[I] , if yes then update minscore[I]
Else continue
Ex:: 3 4 5 2 7
Min=3
for i in range(5) :
I = 0 => setting min=3
Next
I= 1 => 4<3 false
I= 2 => 5<3 false
I= 3 => 2<3 true so set min=2
I= 4 => 7<2 false

So min=2

May you have doubt, why not min=0 at initially, if yes then for all inputs expect for negative values min<scores[0] is false so minscore value remain 0 after loop. But input have no value 0.
hope it helps..

Answer 4

It's more helpful brother❤️❤️

Answer 5

I understood everything,in my solution, in if statment why I==0, is it index or just considered score. As zero initial,little confused
