    <p>Objective: * Write a python program that repeatedly prompts for input of a positive number until the sum of the numbers is greater than 179. Use at least three modules/functions in your solution. * The largest number entered cannot exceed 42. * When the sum of the numbers exceeds 179, print the sum of the numbers, the largest number entered and smallest number entered. </p> <p>I just need some guidance, specifically for the "input_numbers" module. There must be an easier way to do this than to make a variable for each number. The code is not complete. I haven't even started on the two other modules yet. Thanks in advance. </p> <pre><code>def input_numbers(): while True: num1 = raw_input("Enter a positive integer no greater than 42 ") if num1 &lt;= 0: print "That is not a positive integer. Try again " elif num1 &gt; 42: print "The number cannot exceed 42. Try again " num2 = raw_input("Enter another positive integer ") if num2 &lt;= 0: print "That is not a positive integer. Try again " elif num2 &gt; 42: print "The number cannot exceed 42. Try again " num3 = raw_input("Enter another positive integer ") if num3 &lt;= 0: print "That is not a positive integer. Try again " elif num3 &gt; 42: print "The number cannot exceed 42. Try again " num4 = raw_input("Enter another positive integer ") if num4 &lt;= 0: print "That is not a positive integer. Try again " elif num4 &gt; 42: print "The number cannot exceed 42. Try again " num5 = raw_input("Enter another positive integer ") if num5 &lt;= 0: print "That is not a positive integer. Try again " elif num5 &gt; 42: print "The number cannot exceed 42. Try again " elif sum(num1, num2, num3, num4, num5) &gt; 179: print_numbers() add_numbers() def add_numbers(): print_numbers() def print_numbers(): input_numbers() </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
