CSCI $1170$ Programming Concepts

$1.$

Problem Description:

Write a program that reads integers, finds the largest of them, and counts its occurrences.

Assume that the input ends with number $0.$ Suppose that you entered $3525550$; the

program finds that the largest is $5$ and the occurrence count for $5$ is $4.($Hint: Maintain

two variables, max and count. max stores the current max number, and count stores its

occurrences. Initially, assign the first number to max and $1$ to count. Compare each

subsequent number with max. If the number is greater than max, assign it to max and

reset count to $1.$ If the number is equal to max, increment count by $1.)$ Name your

program max$\_$value.py

Here are sample runs of the program:

Sample $1$:

Enter numbers: $3$

Enter numbers: $5$

Enter numbers: $2$

Enter numbers: $5$

Enter numbers: $5$

Enter numbers: $5$

Enter numbers: $0$

The largest number is $5$

The occurrence count of the largest number is $4$

Sample $2$:

Enter numbers: $3$

Enter numbers: $6$

Enter numbers: $2$

Enter numbers: $2$

Enter numbers: $5$

Enter numbers: $4$

Enter numbers: $0$

The largest number is $6$

The occurrence count of the largest number is $1$
