Question
In PYTHON, when copying "LISTS", what is the difference between the following:
first_list =new_list[:] versus first_list = new_list
What would be the better code so that if I make a change in 'first_list', the changes will also reflect 'new_list' and vice versa?

- In C++, write a program that reads in an array of type int. You may assume that there are fewer than 20 entries in the array. The output must be a two-column list. The first column is a list of the distinct array elements and the second column is the count of the number of occurences of each element.arrow_forwardWrite a function that accepts two arguments, a list and a number n. The list contains numbers. The function return a list of all the numbers from the input list that are greater than number n. greater_than_n(list, n)arrow_forwardpython LAB: Subtracting list elements from max When analyzing data sets, such as data for human heights or for human weights, a common step is to adjust the data. This can be done by normalizing to values between 0 and 1, or throwing away outliers. Write a program that adjusts a list of values by subtracting each value from the maximum value in the list. The input begins with an integer indicating the number of integers that follow.arrow_forward
- Parallel Lists JumpinJive.py >- Terminal Summary 1 # JumpinJava.py - This program looks up and prints t and prices of coffee orders. 2 # Input: In this lab, you use what you have learned about parallel lists to complete a partially completed Interactive Python program. 3 # Output: Name and price of coffee orders or error if add-in is not found 4 The program should either print the name and price for a coffee add-in from the Jumpin' Jive 5 # Declare variables. Coffee Shop or it should print the message "Sorry, we do not carry that.". 6 NUM_ITEMS = 5 # Named constant 8 # Initialized list of add-ins 9 addIns = ["Cream", "Cinnamon", "Chocolate", "Amarett "Whiskey"] Read the problem description carefully before you begin. The data file provided for this lab includes the necessary input statements. You need to write the part of the program that searches for the name of the coffee add-in(s) and either prints the name and price of the add-in or prints 10 the error message if the add-in is not…arrow_forwardQUESTION 4 in phython language Write a program that creates a list of N elements (Hint: use append() function), swaps the first and the last element and prints the list on the screen. N should be a dynamic number entered by the user. Sample output: How many numbers would you like to enter?: 5 Enter a number: 34 Enter a number: 67 Enter a number: 23 Enter a number: 90 Enter a number: 12 The list is: [12, 67,23, 90, 34]arrow_forwardWrite a python program that takes two lists, merges thetwo lists, sorts the resulting list, and then finds the median of theelements in the two lists.

- In pythonWrite a function called compter_les_votes that accepts a list of ballots as input (of arbitrary length) and produces a report as a dictionary. The ballots have the form of a couple (valid, condidat) where candidate is the name of one of the candidates in the election, and valid is a boolean that indicates whether or not the ballot is valid. For example, for the following list of bulletins: [(True, 'Pierre'), (False, 'Jean'), (True, 'Pierre'), (True, 'Jacques')]Your function must return the following dictionary: { "number of ballots": 4, "invalid ballots": 1, "results": { "Stone": 2, "Jacques": 1 }}Note that you do not have to display the dictionary, only return it.arrow_forwardWrite a function called find_duplicates which accepts one list as a parameter. This function needs to sort through the list passed to it and find values that are duplicated in the list. The duplicated values should be compiled into another list which the function will return. No matter how many times a word is duplicated, it should only be added once to the duplicates list. NB: Only write the function. Do not call it. For example: Test Result random_words = ("remember","snakes","nappy","rough","dusty","judicious","brainy","shop","light","straw","quickest", "adventurous","yielding","grandiose","replace","fat","wipe","happy","brainy","shop","light","straw", "quickest","adventurous","yielding","grandiose","motion","gaudy","precede","medical","park","flowers", "noiseless","blade","hanging","whistle","event","slip") print(find_duplicates(sorted(random_words))) ['adventurous', 'brainy', 'grandiose', 'light', 'quickest', 'shop', 'straw', 'yielding']…arrow_forwardPython Help Write a program that reads numbers and adds them to a list if the are not already contained in the list.

- I need help with the last two functions in pythonarrow_forwardFor this project you will create a program that populates a list of 8 car manufacturers. You can have theuser populate the list or you can have it predefined.(your choice)If you used a predefined list, then ask the user to add a car manufacturer to the list,Example:cars = ['Ford', 'BMW', 'Volvo']print(‘Enter a new Car Manufacturer: ’)cars.append(input())Use the len() function to acquire the length of the list.(this number is used at the end)Example:cars = ['Ford', 'BMW', 'Volvo']length = cars.len()Use the sort() function to sort the list, (Sort before it is displayed at the end)Example:cars = ['Ford', 'BMW', 'Volvo']cars.sort()and displays the contents of the list using a for loop in the following format:The 9 car manufacturers are:BMWFordVolvoarrow_forwardPYTHON!!! Write a function that will filter course grades that are stored in a list, creating and returning a new list. Your implementation must have the following rules: - The function must accept two (and only two) parameters: The first is: the maximum integer value for any grade to remain in the list (any value above the maximum will be filtered and removed from the list). The second is: the list of grades (you can assume the list contains only integer values) - The function must return a new list and not modify the existing list. - The function must use a list comprehension to filter the existing list and create the new list that is returned. - DO NOT USE THE: built-in-"filter" function.arrow_forward
