Question

Write a Python program that asks the user to type in their three quiz scores (scores between 0 and 100) and displays two averages. The program should be written so one function gets the user to input a score, another function takes the three scores and returns the average of them. And another function takes the three scores and averages the two highest scores (in other words, drops the lowest). Each of these functions should do the computation and return the result so it can be used by the main function. Here is the algorithm of the main function:

main()

call function to get the first score hint: score1 = getScore() where getScore is a function that runs a while loop to get user input until the input is between 0 and 100

call the function again to get the second score hint: score2 = getScore()

call the function a third time to get the third score.

By now, you have three scores from the user and they are all in the valid score range.

call your function to average the three scores. Assign it's return value to average. Hint: average = getAverage(score1,score2,score3)

call your function to get the average with the lowest score dropped.  

print out both averages.

Be sure to document each function - description, arguments, and return value

Program :

'''
Program object to get three score from user between 0 to 100 and print
the average of all three scores and average of highest two scores
  
'''

'''
getScore()

paramter- function don't take any paramtere
getScore() prompt user to enter a score between 0 to 100
and return that score . function will ask untill user not enter valid score
return score
  
'''

def getScore():
score =-1
while(score<0 or score >100):
score =int(input("Enter score(0 to 100):"))
return score

'''
getAverage(score1,score2,score3)
paramter- function take three valid score
  
getAverage takes three score and calculate average of three
  
return average of all three passed score
  
'''

def getAverage(score1,score2,score3):
average=(score1+score2+score3)/3
return round(average,2)

'''
getAveraeOfTwo(score1,score2,score3)
paramter : takes three valid score as paramter
checks for lowest score and add both highest score and calculate average
return the average of highest score

'''
def getAverageOfTwo(score1,score2,score3):
if score1<=score2 and score1<=score3:
average=(score2+score3)/2
return round(average,2)
elif score2<=score1 and score2<=score3:
average=(score1+score3)/2
return round(average,2)
elif score3<=score1 and score3<=score2:
average=(score1+score2)/2
return round(average,2)
else:
average=(score2+score3)/2
return round(average,2)

if __name__ == "__main__":
score1=getScore() #score1 from user
score2=getScore() #score2 from user
score3=getScore() #score3 from user
#return all average of all three scores
average1=getAverage(score1,score2,score3)
#return the average of two highest score
average2=getAverageOfTwo(score1, score2, score3)
#print both average score
print("Average of all three scores: ",average1)
print("Average of two highest scores : ",average2)
