Question

There is a non-empty Python list of integers called numbers whose values are all in the range-maxsize to mae size, ?nclusive. The following piece of code causes the smallest value in list numbers to be stored in the variable anawer: best maxsize a very large integer for number in numbers: if number best: best number answer -best best maxsize a very large integer for number in numbers: if best > number: best number answer-best best,'-maxsize t a very small, integer Cor number in numbers: if best > number: best number answer best

Explanation / Answer

We have Non-empty Python list of integers called numbers whose values are all in the range -maxsize to maxsize, inclusive.

Code below causes smallest values in list to be stored in answer :

best = maxsize       # very large integer

for number in numbers :

        if number < best :          # if number is less than best execute if statement

               best = number

answer = best                     # store best in answer. best contains smallest integer in list numbers

Option 3 does exactly the same thing

best = maxsize       # very large integer

for number in numbers :

        if best > number :          # if number is less than best execute if statement

               best = number

answer = best                     # store best in answer. best contains smallest integer in list numbers

This code also stores smallest number in list numbers in variable answer.
