Can anyone help me to answer this Question, ask the user to input 10 integers, and then prints the largest odd number without using max function. hope i can see the answer in Python.

#Enter the numbers seperated by space. print(sorted([i for i in map(int,input().split()) if i%2])[-1])

Lhak Chung If you tried it you would have seen that it does only print the largest one. The [-1] at the end only references one item. The sorted makes sure that the last item of list is largest. The listcomp removes even numbers.

I don't know python but i am sure that the easiest way to do is using a for loop and a variable called bigger. If the variables are stored in an array it should look like this int bigger = 0 for(int i =0;i<10;i++) if(num[i] %2 !=0 && num[i] > bigger) bigger=num[i] print(bigger) You can change it to make it look like python
