This really smells like a school assignment, which as a general policy we don't solve for you. But as a hint in the right direction, you might look at how parameters are passed to functions in Python (and it's irrelevant that they are int values as far as parameter passing goes, but that will simplify your expression for the sake of keeping the assignment easy to do). You might want to look at some built-in functions which will look at a list of values and tell you which is biggest or smallest.
