The number of elements equal to the maximum

Explanation of the Code

1. Initialize Variables:
   largest = float('-inf')
count_largest = 0
   • Initialize largest to negative infinity (float('-inf')) to ensure any input number will be larger.
   • Initialize count_largest to 0 to keep track of the number of elements equal to the largest element.
2. Reading Input and Counting Elements Equal to Largest:
   while True:


       num = int(input())


       if num == 0:


           break


       if num > largest:


           largest = num


           count_largest = 1


       elif num == largest:


           count_largest += 1

   • Use a while True loop to continuously read input.
   • Convert the input to an integer using int().
   • If the integer is 0, break the loop.
   • If the integer is greater than largest, update largest to this integer and reset count_largest to 1.
   • If the integer is equal to largest, increment count_largest by 1.
3. Printing the Count of Elements Equal to Largest:
   print(count_largest)

   • Print the value of count_largest after exiting the loop.
