Splitting Up Numbers

Challenge Difficulty: Easy | Estimated completion time: ~10 minutes

Create a function that takes a number num and returns each place value in the number.

Examples

num_split(39)
output =[30, 9]
 
num_split(-434)
output = [-400, -30, -4]
 
num_split(100)
output =[100, 0, 0]

Solution

Python

def num_split(number: int) -> list[int]: """Split a number into its place values. Args: number: Input number Returns: List of place values """ is_negative = number < 0 number_absolute = abs(number) number_string = str(number_absolute) result: list[int] = [] for index, digit in enumerate(number_string): place_value = int(digit) * (10 ** (len(number_string) - index - 1)) if is_negative: place_value = -place_value result.append(place_value) return result if __name__ == "__main__": print(num_split(39)) # [30, 9] print(num_split(-434)) # [-400, -30, -4] print(num_split(100)) # [100, 0, 0]
