City with Highest Population (Problem 39) - InfyTQ Solution in Python

City with Highest Population (Problem 39)

InfyTQ Solution in Python

PROBLEM STATEMENT

Suppose you are given a data structure which is a list of dictionaries as follows:

cities = [
{'Name':'Vancouver','State':'WA','Population':161791},
{'Name':'Salem','State':'OR','Population':154637},
{'Name':'Seattle','State':'WA','Population':608660},
{'Name':'Spokane','State':'WA','Population':208916},
...
]

Complete the function max_in_state to return the city (as a dictionary) with the highest population in a given state. If the population is a tie then return the city that comes first alphabetically.

If cities contained only the dictionaries above, a call to max_in_state(cities, 'WA') would return:
{'Name':'Seattle','State':'WA','Population':608660}

SOLUTION

#PF-Prac-39 def max_populated_state(cities_dict,state): #start writing your code here return max_populated_city cities_dict = [ {'Name':'Vancouver','State':'WA','Population':161791}, {'Name':'Salem','State':'OR','Population':154637}, {'Name':'Seattle','State':'WA','Population':80885}, {'Name':'Bellingham','State':'WA','Population':608660}, {'Name':'Spokane','State':'WA','Population':208916}, {'Name':'Bellevue','State':'WA','Population':608660}, {'Name':'Portland','State':'OR','Population':583776} ] state="WA" print("The city details are:",cities_dict) print("State:",state) output=max_populated_state(cities_dict,state) print("The highest populated city in the given state is:",output)
