Python - Find second smallest number

Question

I found this code on this site to find the second largest number:

def second_largest(numbers):
    m1, m2 = None, None
    for x in numbers:
        if x >         


        

Answer 1

def SecondSmallest(x):
    lowest=min(x[0],x[1])
    lowest2 = max(x[0],x[1])
    for item in x:
         if item < lowest:
            lowest2 = lowest
            lowest = item
         elif lowest2 > item and item > lowest:
            lowest2 = item
    return lowest2

SecondSmallest([10,1,-1,2,3,4,5])
