Answer to Question #350993 in Python for gaurav

Question

Consider an ongoing test cricket series. Following are the names of the players and their scores in the test1 and 2.

Test Match 1 :

Dhoni : 56 , Balaji : 94

Test Match 2 :

Balaji : 80 , Dravid : 105

Calculate the highest number of runs scored by an individual cricketer in both of the matches. Create a python function Max_Score (M) that reads a dictionary M that recognizes the player with the highest total score. This function will return ( Top player , Total Score ) . You can consider the Top player as String who is the highest scorer and Top score as Integer .

Input : Max_Score({‘test1’:{‘Dhoni’:56, ‘Balaji : 85}, ‘test2’:{‘Dhoni’ 87, ‘Balaji’’:200}}) Output : (‘Balaji ‘ , 200)

Answer 1

M = {"test1": {'Dhoni': 56, "Balaji": 85}, 'test2': {'Dhoni': 87, 'Balaji': 200}}

def Max_Score(d):
    total = {}
    for k in d.keys():
        for n in d[k].keys():
            if n in total.keys():
                total[n] = total[n] + d[k][n]
            else:
                total[n] = d[k][n]
    print("Total Run Scored by Each Playes in 2 Tests: ")
    print(total)

    print("Player With highest score")
    maxtotal = -1
    for n in total.keys():
        if total[n] > maxtotal:
            maxname = n
            maxtotal = total[n]

    return (maxname, maxtotal)

summary = Max_Score(M)
print(summary)
