Hi Luka
Did you read the reply to your previous question from Dennis Lee Bieber?
If not, here it is again -
"""
This smells like a homework assignment. We do NOT provide solutions to
homework. In particular, we will not provide you with an algorithm to
solve such a simple problem.
We WILL provide help with Python syntax and semantics, but YOU need to
provide a starting point of what you've tried, what the results are, and
what you expected for the results.
Suggestion: pretend you are the computer. Use a piece of paper to track
current MAX and current MIN. You get one item from the list at a time --
how do you determine if it is to become a new MAX, a new MIN, or is ignored
as neither.
Now -- write a program does just that...
"""
Try his suggestion, and come back here if you get stuck.
