> Why is this not working,and how can I correct it? I guess you want to: a) read a single line containing many numbers separated by white space b) convert them to a list of floating point numbers c) print their minimum and maximum value a) Already done >> z = raw_input ('Give numbers') b) Already done >> y = z.split() >> b=[] >> for i in y: >> b.append(float(i)) The list of numbers is called "b". Don't define a function with the same name, you'll lose the original list attached to the name "b". c) Almost done; remember that your list of numbers is called "b" not "a": >> print min(b) >> print max(b) d) We (Python and me) have no idea what "gem" is: >> print gem(b) -- Gabriel Genellina -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
