Follow-up Question

Make the following modifications for the solution above:

  • name the output/input file "myRandomNumbers.txt"
  • use a loop to output 17 random numbers to the file
  • after creating the file, close it
  • open the file for input and read the contents and then
    • total the numbers in the file
    • determine the average of the numbers in the file
    • determine the highest and lowest numbers in the file
    • DO NOT USE PYTHON BUILTIN FUNCTIONS TO CALCULATE THE AVERAGE OR THE HIGHEST AND LOWEST NUMBERS
    • an expected number of modules/functions would be in the 5-8 range

Display your results:

  • the numbers generated on a single horizontal line
  • the calculated total and average
  • the highest and lowest number in the file

Be sure to use clear prompts/labeling for input and output.
