Suppose a list contains marks earned in the courses CSE110, PHY111, and MAT110 of each student consecutively in a nested list form. Your task is to take a course name as input and sort the list based on the marks obtained in that course to finally print the names of the students in descending order of marks obtained i.e. from the student who earned the highest marks to the student who earned the lowest. For example, the list may look like stu_lst = [ ["Alan", 95, 87, 91], ["Turing", 92, 90, 83], ["Elon", 87, 92, 80], ["Musk", 85, 94, 90] ] where for each nested list, 1st index holds the name of the student, 2nd index is total marks earned in the CSE110 course, 3rd index is PHY111 marks and 4th index is MAT110 marks. [You cannot use python build-in sort() function, you can call your own sort function or copy your code from previous tasks instead] =============================================================== Sample Input 1 MAT110 Sample Output 1 ['Alan', 'Musk', 'Turing', 'Elon'] Explanation: Here the user gives us "MAT110" as the course name.

Question

Suppose a list contains marks earned in the courses CSE110, PHY111, and MAT110 of each student consecutively in a nested list form. Your task is to take a course name as input and sort the list based on the marks obtained in that course to finally print the names of the students in descending order of marks obtained i.e. from the student who earned the highest marks to the student who earned the lowest.

For example, the list may look like

stu_lst = [ ["Alan", 95, 87, 91], ["Turing", 92, 90, 83], ["Elon", 87, 92, 80], ["Musk", 85, 94, 90] ]

where for each nested list, 1st index holds the name of the student, 2nd index is total marks earned in the CSE110 course, 3rd index is PHY111 marks and 4th index is MAT110 marks.

[You cannot use python build-in sort() function, you can call your own sort function or copy your code from previous tasks instead]

===============================================================

Sample Input 1

MAT110

Sample Output 1

['Alan', 'Musk', 'Turing', 'Elon']

Explanation:

Here the user gives us "MAT110" as the course name. Now, the students Alan, Turing, Elon, and Musk earned 91, 83, 80, and 90 marks respectively in this course. If we sort it, Alan got the highest marks of 91 followed by Musk with 90 marks and Turing with 83 marks. Among these 4 students, Elon obtained the lowest marks in the MAT110 course with 80 marks.

===============================================================

Sample Input 2

PHY111

Sample Output 2

['Musk', 'Elon', 'Turing', 'Alan']

#todo
# stu_lst is given below.
# For each nested list, 
# 1st index holds the name of the student, 
# 2nd index is total marks earned in the CSE110 course, 
# 3rd index is PHY111 marks and 4th index is MAT110 marks.
stu_lst = [["Alan", 95, 87, 91], ["Turing", 92, 90, 83], 
       ["Elon", 87, 92, 80], ["Musk", 85, 94, 90] ]


def task5(Course_name, stu_lst):
  # YOUR CODE HERE
    return list_out

please use Course_name, stu_lst also no python build-in sort() function, is allowed
