N.B.
🐍 When comparing characters or strings, Python converts the characters to their corresponding ordinal values, and then compares from left to right. The unique value of the symbol can be found using the ord() function (e.g. print("apple" > "banana") gives False, while print("apple" < "banana") gives True)
🐍 Mind the data types when giving your answers. The / operator, when dividing an integer by an integer, returns a result of the float type. (e.g. 2/2 gives 1.0)

~ Average accuracy 54%
~ Average involvement 29 people (10%)

N.B.
🐍 Remember the general rules of sorting: numbers are sorted in either ascending or descending order (according to the attribute specified); strings are sorted in alphabetical order, latin letters first, then cyrillic; first uppercase, then lowercase. Numbers in form of a string are sorted according to their codes (e.g. 11 comes after 2 when being sorted in ascending order, but “11” comes before “2”, while sorting as string type)
🐍 Be careful when referring to the keys in the dictionary. Square brackets in the dictionary call a specific element that is already in the dictionary, not an element by its index. For example, if we want to access the first element in a = {1:”one”, 2:”two”} by typing a[0], KeyError will occur: we tried to access a “0” key in a dictionary that doesn’t contain it
