A school is hosting a running event among the members of the track and field team to decide on a representative to send to a regional tournament. Today, the last 4 finalists will compete in three races to determine the representative. The races are 100m Sprint, 400m Sprint and 150m Hurdles. The 4 finalists will be referred as Runner1, Runner2, Runner3 and Runner4 1. (10 pts) Write a code asking the user to enter the various times of each runner for each race. You should save the user input in a single dictionary named record Dict, so that each key-value pair correspond to the result of a given race. Hint: You should keep the runner time in the same order for each race. This way the first value entered corresponds to Runner1 time, the second value corresponds to Runner2 and so on. The following is an example of the code output. User input is in bold. Enter the 100m Sprint time for Runner1: 10.5 Enter the 100m Sprint time for Runner2: 10.8 Enter the 100m Sprint time for Runner3: 9.8 Enter the 100m Sprint time for Runner4: 11.2 Enter the 400m Sprint time for Runner1: 46.3 Enter the 400m Sprint time for Runner2: 45.7 Enter the 400m Sprint time for Runner3: 47.1 Enter the 400m Sprint time for Runner4: 46.8 Enter the 150m Hurdles time for Runner1: 15.3 Enter the 150m Hurdles time for Runner2: 14.9 Enter the 150m Hurdles time for Runner3: 15.2 Enter the 150m Hurdles time for Runner4: 14.3 Write a code that will use the two functions BestTime and Second Best to attribute points to each runner and use the function Highest Points to determine which runner should be the representative. Your code should use a list of integers, RunnerPoints to represent the total points of each runner. Here is a possible order of operations: 1.Call Best Time to obtain the lowest 100m Sprint time and which runner did this time. 2. Add 5 points to this runner in RunnerPoints list. 3. Call SecondBest to obtain the second best lowest 100m Sprint time and which runner did this time. 4. Add 3 points to this runner in RunnerPoints list. 5. Repeat the steps above for the 400m Sprint and 150m Hurdles. 6. Once all points are recorded, call HighestPoints to obtain which runner has the total highest point. 7. Display which runner is the representative Based on the previous user entry, the total points are Runner1: 6; Runner2: 8; Runner3: 5; Runner4 : 5 The representative is therefore runner 2 A school is hosting a running event among the members of the track and field team to decide on a representative to send to a regional tournament.
