# Remember we can easily do this with max() function
# But the challenge is not to use that, and use for loop
largest_so_far = None
lst = [9, 41, 12, 3, 74, 15]
for num in lst:
    if largest_so_far == None:  # if statement runs only in first iteration
        largest_so_far = num
    elif num > largest_so_far:
        largest_so_far = num
    print(largest_so_far, num)  # If you want you can skip this print function
print('This is the largest number:', largest_so_far)
