Define a function first_or_last_6
that checks whether 6 is the first
or the last element in the list of numbers numbers
passed as a parameter.
If it is, return True
, otherwise return False
.
Examples:
first_or_last_6([1, 2, 6])
-> True
first_or_last_6([6, 1, 2, 3])
-> True
first_or_last_6([3, 2, 1])
-> False
Define a function same_ends
that takes a list numbers
as a parameter,
and returns True
if the list of numbers has at least one element and the
first element is the same as the last. Otherwise, return False
.
Examples:
same_ends([1, 2, 3])
-> False
same_ends([1, 2, 3, 1])
-> True
same_ends([1, 2, 1])
-> True
Define a function common_ends
that takes two lists a
and b
as parameters, and checks that the first two numbers of both lists are equal
or that the last two numbers of both lists are equal. Assume both lists have
at least one element.
Examples:
common_ends([1, 2, 3], [7, 3])
-> True
common_ends([1, 2, 3], [7, 3, 2])
-> False
common_ends([1, 2, 3], [1, 3])
-> True
Define a function called mayor_extremo
that takes the list “numeros” as parameter, compares the ends of the list and returns a new list of the same size where all elements are the greatest magnitude extreme.
Examples:
mayor_extremo([1, 2, 3])
-> [3, 3, 3]
mayor_extremo([1, 3, 2])
-> [2, 2, 2]
Define a function called sumar_primeros_dos
that takes the integer list numeros
of any length as parameter and returns the sum of the first two elements. If the list has less than two elements, add 0s.
Examples:
sumar_primeros_dos([1, 2, 3])
-> 3
sumar_primeros_dos([1, 1])
-> 2
sumar_primeros_dos([])
-> 0
Define a function called al_medio
that takes two integer lists a
and b
as parameters, and returns a list of size 2 that contains the middle elements of a
and b
. Assume that the lists have an odd length.
Examples:
al_medio([1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6])
-> [2, 5]
al_medio([7, 7, 7], [3, 8, 0])
-> [7, 8]
al_medio([5, 2, 9], [1, 4, 5])
-> [2, 4]
Define a function fancy_date
. The function will take two parameters,
my_score
and partner_score
. Assume that you are going to a
restaurant with your partner. The parameters represent the score of the clothes
you are wearing from 0 to 10. The higher the score, the more elegant you are dressed.
Your clothes score will determine if you get a table at the restaurant or not, according to the following rules:
If the score of one of the two clothing is less than or equal to 2, they will not be entitled to a table (
0
).If the scores are higher, then if one of them is very elegant (score >= 8) they will be entitled to a table (
2
).Otherwise, the answer is maybe (
1
).
So fancy_date
returns a number between 0, 1, and 2, which mean No, Maybe, and Yes, respectively.
Examples:
fancy_date(5, 10)
-> 2
fancy_date(5, 2)
-> 0
fancy_date(5, 5)
-> 1
The squirrels soccer team normally plays when the temperature is
between 60 and 90 degrees Fahrenheit. But in summer, the temperature exceeds
the maximum temperature they will play, which is 90 degrees Fahrenheit.
Define a function squirrel_play
that takes 2 parameters, temp
representing
the temperature, and is_summer
, which can be True
if it’s summer or False
if not. The function should return True
if the squirrels play or False
if they don’t.
Examples:
squirrel_play(70, False)
-> True
squirrel_play(95, False)
-> False
squirrel_play(95, True)
-> True
Let’s simulate a speedometer that applies a fine if the maximum speed is exceeded:
Speed <= 60: no fine
Speed between 61 and 80: medium fine
Speed above 80: severe fine
If it’s your birthday, the speed can be 5 km/h higher in all cases.
Define a function apply_fine
that takes the parameters speed
and
birthday
. The first represents the speed you were going, and the second
can be True
if it’s your birthday or False
if it’s not. This function should
return 0, 1 or 2 according to the following:
no fine = 0
medium fine = 1
severe fine = 2
Examples:
apply_fine(60, False)
-> 0
apply_fine(65, False)
-> 1
apply_fine(65, True)
-> 0
apply_fine(80, False)
-> 1
Define a function set_alarm
that takes two parameters: The first parameter
day
is a number from 0-6 that represents a day of the week according to the following:
day: 0 = Sunday, 1 = Monday, 2 = Tuesday, …, 6 = Saturday.
The second parameter vacation
will be set to True
if you’re on vacation or
False
if you’re not. The function will return a string that indicates when
the alarm clock will ring according to the following:
Weekdays: ‘07:00’
Weekends: ‘10:00’
Unless you’re on vacation, in which case:
Weekdays: ‘10:00’
Weekends: ‘off’
Examples:
set_alarm(1, False)
-> "7:00"
set_alarm(1, True)
-> "10:00"
set_alarm(6, True)
-> "off"
set_alarm(0, False)
-> "10:00"
