Create a new Python program (you choose the filename) that contains a main function and another function named change_list. Refer to the SAMPLE OUTPUT after reading the following requirements. In the main function: create an empty list. use a for loop to add 12 random integers, all ranging from 50 to 100, to the list. use second for loop to iterate over the list and display all elements on one line separated by a single space. display the 4th element, the element at index 9, and the smallest element.

Question

Create a new Python program (you choose the filename) that contains a main function and another function named change_list. Refer to the SAMPLE OUTPUT after reading the following requirements.

In the main function:

  • create an empty list.
  • use a for loop to add 12 random integers, all ranging from 50 to 100, to the list.
  • use second for loop to iterate over the list and display all elements on one line separated by a single space.
  • display the 4th element, the element at index 9, and the smallest element.
  • call the change_list function with your list as its sole argument.

In the change_list function:

  • use a slice to make a new list from the list that was passed into this function. The new list should hold the middle 6 elements of the list that was passed in. NOTE: you must accomplish this step with a slice.
  • use a function to determine the size of the new list. Print the size.
  • sort the new list in ascending order and return the sorted list to main.

Back in the main function:

  • assign the list returned by change_list to a new list.
  • use another for loop to iterate over this returned list and display all elements on one line, separated by a single space.

SAMPLE OUTPUT
Here is the list of random integers...
99 66 57 81 75 59 58 74 56 90 75 65
The 4th element in the list is 81
The element at index 9 is 90
The smallest element in the list is 56
The size of the list is now 6
change_list returned this sorted list...
56 58 59 74 75 81
