You're a swimmer, and you want to compare all of your race times to find the fastest one. write a program that continuously takes race times as doubles from standard input, until the input is no more races, at which point it should print out the time of your fastest race.

To find the fastest race among the entire race, enter the race time in seconds and make a list to store them. After that create a loop that will continue till the last race is not completed. Now, compare the race times . In main function, enter the race time or enter no more races. Finally, print the fastest race value. The easiest code in python language is written below in MaxRace.py file.

Further explanation:

Code: MaxRace.py

raceTime=Input(“Enter the race time or enter ‘no more races’:”)

if raceTime!=”no more races”:

fastest_race_time=float(raceTime)

# compare the race times

while raceTime!=’no more races’:

compareTime=float(raceTime)

if fastest_race_time>compareTime:

fastest_race_time=compareTime

raceTime=input(“Enter the race time or enter ‘no more races’:  “)

#print the fastest race

print(fastest_race_time)

else:

print(raceTime)

Output:

Run the commands in python, the output will be looking as below:

Enter the race time or enter ‘no more races’: 49.0

Enter the race time or enter ‘no more races’: 52.0

Enter the race time or enter ‘no more races’: 39.0

Enter the race time or enter ‘no more races’: 23.6

52.0
