PROGRAM EXPLANATION

Algorithm and explanation

  1. Initialize the sample values used to use min max and sum.
  2. Apply min() and max() to compute the required result.
  3. Display the result for use min max and sum and compare it with the documented sample output.

This example of use min max and sum computes the result directly from the prepared sample data. It demonstrates min(), max(), and sum() and prints a deterministic result that can be checked against the sample output.

DEBUGGING CHECKLIST

Common mistakes

Check this

For use min max and sum, keep the data shape and value types consistent with min().

Check this

Apply min() in the same order shown by the algorithm; changing the order can change the result.

Check this

Verify the final min() and max() result against the sample before trying new data.

Try it yourself

Practice: Run the program with the sample input, predict its output, and then test one boundary case of your own.
