findDifference In Python

Write a program to find the difference between the elements at odd index and even index.

Note : You are expected to write code in the findDifference function only which receive the first parameter as the numbers of items in the array and second parameter as the array itself. You are not required to take the input from the console.

Example

Finding the maximum difference between adjacent items of a list of 5 numbers

Input
input 1 : 7
input 2 : 10 20 30 40 50 60 70

Output
40

def findDifference(n,values):

    total = 0

    for i in range(n):

        if i%2 == 0:

            total+=values[i]

        else:

            total-=values[i]

    return total

n = int(input())

values = list(map(int, input().split()))

print(findDifference(n,values))
