Program 1

Aim:

To find the maximum of a list of numbers.

Algorithm:

• Start the program.

• Define a function max_of_list that takes a list as input.

• Initialize a variable max_num with the first element of the list.

• Loop through the list and compare each element with max_num.

• If an element is greater than max_num, update max_num.

• Return max_num as the maximum value in the list.

Code:

def max_of_list(numbers):
max_num = numbers[0]
for num in numbers:
if num > max_num:
max_num = num
return max_num

# Example usage
print(max_of_list([4, 7, 1, 12, 9]))

Sample Output:

12

Viva Questions:

• What is the purpose of this program?

• How does the loop help in finding the maximum number?

• Can this program handle an empty list? Why or why not?

• What would you modify to find the minimum value instead?


• How does this approach compare to using Python’s built-in max() function?

Result:

The program successfully finds the maximum number in a list.


Program 2
Aim:

To calculate the number of digits and letters in a string.

Algorithm:

• Start the program.

• Define a function to accept a string as input.

• Initialize counters for letters and digits.

• Loop through each character in the string.

• If the character is a letter, increment the letter counter; if it's a digit, increment the digit
counter.

• Print the counts for letters and digits.

Code:

def count_letters_digits(string):
letters = digits = 0
for char in string:
if char.isalpha():
letters += 1
elif char.isdigit():
digits += 1
print(f"Letters: {letters}, Digits: {digits}")

# Example usage
count_letters_digits("Hello123")

Sample Output:

Letters: 5, Digits: 3

Viva Questions:

• What function do we use to check if a character is a letter?

• How does the program differentiate between letters and digits?

• Can this code handle special characters?


• What will happen if the input string has no letters?

• How would you modify the program to count spaces as well?

Result:

The program successfully counts letters and digits in the string.
