should use == to test equality a single = is
an assignment and would give an error here
print num
try :
num = float(inp)
except :
Don't use a bare except here, specify the error,
otherwise you potentially miss a lot of useful
debug information. Specifically you want to
catch ValueError here.
print 'Invalid input'
continue
if largest is None or num > largest :
largest = num
if smallest is None or num < smallest :
smallest = num
> print 'Maximum is:', largest
> print 'Minimum is:', smallest
Fix those errors and it should work
