+## Problem Name: Kids With the Greatest Number of Candies 
+##===================================
+#
+#Given the array candies and the integer extraCandies, where candies[i] represents the number of candies that the ith kid has.
+#
+#For each kid check if there is a way to distribute extraCandies among the kids such that he or she can have the greatest number of candies among them. Notice that multiple kids can have the greatest number of candies.
+#
+#Example 1:
+#
+#Input: candies = [2,3,5,1,3], extraCandies = 3
+#Output: [true,true,true,false,true] 
+#Explanation: 
+#Kid 1 has 2 candies and if he or she receives all extra candies (3) will have 5 candies --- the greatest number of candies among the kids. 
+#Kid 2 has 3 candies and if he or she receives at least 2 extra candies will have the greatest number of candies among the kids. 
+#Kid 3 has 5 candies and this is already the greatest number of candies among the kids. 
+#Kid 4 has 1 candy and even if he or she receives all extra candies will only have 4 candies. 
+#Kid 5 has 3 candies and if he or she receives at least 2 extra candies will have the greatest number of candies among the kids. 
+#Example 2:
+#
+#Input: candies = [4,2,1,1,2], extraCandies = 1
+#Output: [true,false,false,false,false] 
+#Explanation: There is only 1 extra candy, therefore only kid 1 will have the greatest number of candies among the kids regardless of who takes the extra candy.
+#Example 3:
+#
+#Input: candies = [12,1,12], extraCandies = 10
+#Output: [true,false,true]
+class Solution:
+    def kidsWithCandies(self, candies, extraCandies):
+        tmpMax = max(candies)	#Initialize tmpMax that finds the max number of candies
+        tmp = [0]*len(candies)	#Initialize tmp list which has same length as candies having zero value
+        true, false = True, False	#Initialize true and false variables 
+        for i in range(len(candies)):	#Loop through candies
+            if candies[i] + extraCandies >= tmpMax:	#Condition-check: If candies[i] and extraCandies sum has more than or same as tmpMax
+                tmp[i] = true	#Then we update our tmp list by adding value true 
+            else:	#Condition-check: Else
+                tmp[i] = false	#Otherwise update tmp list by adding value false
+        return tmp	#At the end we return tmp list
