MIN/MAX with LOOP in Python-CodePudding

Please how can I run this code if I need to get the MIN, MAX and SUM of this Loop?

I ran this loop successfully but when I was trying to get the MIN and MAX am getting "int" "the object is not iterable".

for value in range(1,1000): print(min(value))

Thanks

Yes, because The min() function returns the item with the lowest value, or the item with the lowest value in an iterable. Means when you are running your loop your getting i as 1 only and min iterating due to single value. simply you're not having any value for comparison. try to add more code.

example,

a = list()

for value in range(1,1000): 
    a.append(value)
    if value==999:
           print("min of 1 to 1000 is\t", min(a))

Min finds the minimum value in an iterable e.g. a list, min([1,2,3,4]) You are trying to find the minimum value of a single integer i.e. min(1) because the loop returns each value from the range of values you are iterating through
