36. Max and Min of Decimals

Write a Python program to find the maximum and minimum numbers from the specified decimal numbers.

Sample Solution:

Python Code:

from decimal import *
data = list(map(Decimal, '2.45 2.69 2.45 3.45 2.00 0.04 7.25'.split()))
print("Maximum: ", max(data))
print("Minimum: ", min(data))

Sample Output:

Maximum:  7.25                                                                                                
Minimum:  0.04
