from   future   import division  somelist     1 12 2 53 23 6 17   max value   max somelist  min value   min somelist  avg value   0 if len somelist     0 else sum somelist  len somelist    If you want to manually find the minimum as a function   somelist     1 12 2 53 23 6 17    def my min function somelist       min value   None     for value in somelist          if not min value              min value   value         elif value  lt  min value              min value   value     return min value   Python 3 4 introduced the statistics package  which provides mean and additional stats   from statistics import mean  median  somelist     1 12 2 53 23 6 17  avg value   mean somelist  median value   median somelist

Only a teacher would ask you to do something silly like this  You could provide an expected answer  Or a unique solution  while the rest of the class will be  yawn  the same     from operator import lt  gt def ultimate  l op c 1 u 0       try          if op l c  l u                 u   c         c    1         return ultimate l op c u      except IndexError          return l u  def minimum  l       return ultimate l lt  def maximum  l       return ultimate l gt    The solution is simple  Use this to set yourself apart from obvious choices
