def issorted (1st):
Write a test program that prompts the user to enter a list of numbers separated by a space in one line and displays whether the list is sorted or not.

Answer 1

# Get input and strip any leading/trailing spaces

inputList = input('Enter list: ').strip()

def issorted(lst):

if len(lst) < 2:

return True

current = 1

prev = 0

while current < len(lst):

# Compare if current value is less than the previous one

if int(lst[current]) < int(lst[prev]):

return False

prev = current

current += 1

return True

# Convert input to list

inputList = inputList.split(' ')

# Print output

if issorted(inputList):

print("The list is already sorted​")

else:

print("The list is not sorted")
