Check if all values in list are greater than a certain number

Question

my_list1 = [30,34,56]
my_list2 = [29,500,43]

How to I check if all values in list are >= 30? my_list1 should work and my_list2

Answer 1

...any reason why you can't use min()?

def above(my_list, minimum):
    if min(my_list) >= minimum:
        print "All values are equal or above", minimum
    else:
        print "Not all values are equal or above", minimum

I don't know if this is exactly what you want, but technically, this is what you asked for...
