Problem of the Day

Problem

A list contains the average daily temperature(in degree Celsius) of a city over a particular week.

Write a Python code to swap the highest and the lowest temperatures

a) A list containing average daily temperature over a week

temperatures = [34, 40, 29, 33, 42, 37, 39 ]

b) The expected output

c)Store the highest temperature

d) Index of the element with the highest temperature

max_temp_index =

e) Store the lowest temperature

min_temp =

f) Index of the element with the lowest temperature

min_temp_index =

'''

# list of the temperatures

temperatures = [34,40,29,33,42,37,39]

#to find maximum temperature

max_temp = max(temperatures)

print(f"Value of highest temperature is {max_temp}")

a = temperatures.index(max_temp)

print(f"Index of max temperture is {a}")

#to find lowest temperature

min_temp = min(temperatures)

print(f"Value of highest temperature is {min_temp}")

b = temperatures.index(min_temp)

print(f"Index of max temperture is {b}")

#to swap the highest and lowest temperatures

temp = max_temp

max_temp = min_temp

min_temp = temp

print(f"After swapping highest temperature is {max_temp} & minimum temperature is {min_temp}")

Output:

Value of highest temperature is 42

Index of max temperture is 4

Value of highest temperature is 29

Index of max temperture is 2

After swapping highest temperature is 29 & minimum temperature is 42
