Start by solving the finger exercise from the Guttag book on page 18:
From three integers, x, y, and z pick the highest one that is odd (or output a message that they are all even).
For x, y, and z, have the user input those integers with suitable prompts naming the variables for the user. Your message should say which one is the highest odd (both its value and whether it was x, y, or z). For instance:
Enter three integers for x, y, and z.
x: 100
y: -3
z: 14
The highest odd was y, -3.
Make sure you test all possible distinct cases. How many are there? Here's a partial list:
- all are even,
- x is the only odd,
- y is the only odd,
- z is the only odd,
- x is the only even and y is the greater of the other two,
- x is the only even and z is the greater of the other two,
- etc.
Make sure to include all the authors in the module's docstring and a good description. Use good style, including well-named variables, spaces around operators (like = % +, etc.), and have reasonable comments where a human reader of your program might need a little explanation of what you are doing (or how). Don't be too verbose, but don't be too laconic either!
Guidance 
Start with something simpler! Have a program that just does x and y. Then add z after that is working.
