# Question $1$: Create a list using the following artists names:

# "Weird Al$\text{'},$ 'Bruno Mars', 'Ricky Martin', $\text{'}$HP Boyz', 'James Blunt', $\text{'}$Ne$-$Yo$",$ 'Paul McCartney', 'Little River Band'

Sort it from Z$-$A

Output the resulting list

$[]$# Question $2$: Add 'Juice Wrld$\text{'}$ in the $3$rd position of the list

# $($Remember: Don't remove any of the the current list items$)$

Output the resulting list

# Question $3$: Make a dictionary that has the artist name as the key and the number of plays at the value.

Loop through the artist list $($from question $2)$ to populate the dictionary.

Hint: Using the plays information below, create a list of plays where the order of plays

# matches the order of the artists in the artist list.

For example, in the play list, $1234821$ would be the first variable listed because

# 'Weird Al$\text{'}$ is the first variable listed in the artist list. $600000$ would be the second variable

# listed in the play list because 'Ricky Martin' is the second variable listed in the artist list.

#Output the resulting dictionary.

# Weird AL $=1234821$ plays

Ricky Martin $=600000$ plays

Juice Wrld $=38765432$ plays

# Paul McCartney $=98879838$ plays

Ne$-$Yo $=20000$ plays

# Little River Band $=100$ plays

James Blunt $=974545$ plays

# HP Boyz $=45000$ plays

Bruno Mars $=85279$ plays

$[]$ # Question $4$: Due to technical errors this month all artists lost count of $100$ plays.

Loop through the artist dictionary $($from question $3)$ and add $100$ to the count of plays for all artists.

Output the resulting total number of plays for each artist $($output just the dictionary values$)$

$[]$ # Question $5$: Delete all artists that do not meet our Clout$\_$Minimum $($where their plays are less than the Clout$\_$Minimum of $50900)$

# Hint: Use a loop to find the unpopular artists $($artists with a play count less than the Clout$\_$Minimum$).$

Use another loop to delete those artists from the artist dictionary.

# Ouput the resulting dictionary.

Clout Minimum $=50000$

unpopular$=[]$

# Question $6$:

# Isaac and Grays are two listener profiles.

# Below is a dictionary for Isaac and a dictionary for Grays.

'fav$\_$Artist' is the key and a list of preferred artists are the values.

# Also below is the all$\_$Artists list. This is a list of all available artists.

# Isaac likes 'Little River Band', 'Jackson $5\text{'},\text{'}$HP Boyz', and $\text{'}$Ne$-$Yo$\text{'}.$

# Grays likes all the other artists listed in the all$\_$Artists list $($he doesn't like the artists in Isaac's list$).$

# Use a loop to update Graysons fav$\_$Artists $($update the values to the key 'fav$\_$Artists"$)$

# HINT: You may want to use 'not in$\text{'}$ to find Grays's preferred artists.

# Output Grays and Isacc's list of perferred bands.

Isaac 'fav$\_$Artists": $[\text{'}$Little River Band', 'Juice Wrld$\text{'},\text{'}$HP Boyz', $\text{'}$Ne$-$Yo$\text{'}]\}$

Isaac fav$\_$Artists": Grays fartists":

$[]$ Q Question $7$: For both Issac and Grays, calculate the total artist plays $($the sum of the plays of all their favorite artists$).$

# Make a new 'all$\_$plays' key in the Isaac dictionary and the Grays dictionary.

# Insert the totat plays of all their favorite artists as the value of the 'ail$\_$plays' key.

# NOTE: Before you run this block of code, run question $3$ again to repopulate the artist dictionary.

# Just push the 'play" button next to question $3$ to run it again.

# Output the resulting dictionaries.

# Who has the most plays $($likes more mainstream music$)$ and who has the less plays $($likes more indie music$)?$
