Question

Problem 2-Python

We have a dictionary where the keys are the names of all your relatives and the values are their ages. Write a Python program to iterate/loop over the dictionary and find the oldest member of your family.

Sample output: The oldest relative is Helko.

Recall: Iterating over a dictionary iterates over its KEYS.

HINT: First we initialize maximum_age to 0 and maximum_age_relative to and empty string. These variables will be updated during the loop.

Then we need to iterate over the keys of the dictionary my_family to find the member and their age.
If the age is greater than the current maximum_age, we update maximum_age with this new maximum age. Then we update the maximum_age_relative with the new member.

 

Given Code:

my_family = {'Bob':72, 'Susan':39, 'Helko':81, 'Gertrude':4}

maximum_age = 0

maximum_age_relative = ""
