Here is the code:
#Lab 9-4 Blood Drive
#the main function
def main():
endProgram = 'no'
while endProgram == 'no':
print
# declare variables
pints = [0] * 7
totalPints = 0
averagePints = 0
highPints = 0
lowPints = 0
# function calls
pints = getPints(pints)
totalPints = getTotal(pints, totalPints)
averagePints = getAverage(totalPints, averagePints)
highPints = getHigh(pints, highPints)
lowPints = getLow(pints, lowPints)
displayInfo(averagePints, highPints, lowPints)
endProgram = raw_input('Do you want to end program? (Enter no or yes): ')
while not (endProgram == 'yes' or endProgram == 'no'):
print 'Please enter a yes or no'
endProgram = raw_input('Do you want to end program? (Enter no or yes): ')
#the getPints function
def getPints(pints):
counter = 0
while counter < 7:
pints[counter] = input("Enter pints collected: ")
counter = counter + 1
return pints
#the getTotal function
def getTotal(pints, totalPints):
counter = 0
while counter < 7:
totalPints = totalPints + pints[counter]
counter = counter + 1
return totalPints
#the getAverage function
def getAverage(totalPints, averagePints):
averagePints = totalPints / 7
return averagePints
#the getHigh function
def getHigh(pints, highPints):
highPints = pints[0]
counter = 1
while counter < 7:
if (pints[counter] > highPints):
highPints = pints[counter]
counter = counter + 1
return highPints
#the getLow function
def getLow(pints, lowPints):
lowPints = pints[0]
counter = 1
while counter < 7:
if (pints[counter] < lowPints):
lowPints = pints[counter]
counter = counter + 1
return lowPints
#the displayInfo function
def displayInfo(averagePints, highPints, lowPints):
print "The average pints donated was: ", averagePints
print "The highest amount of pints donated was: ", highPints
print "The lowest amount of pints donated was: ", lowPints
return displayInfo(averagePints, highPints, lowPints)
main()
The problem is that the display info isn't shown after the user types in their 7 numerical values. Please help.
