Why isn't this working? It is literally what Chuck did in the video and it works in my command prompt:

def computepay(hours, rate) : #print("In computepay", hours, rate) if hours > 40 : reg = rate * hours otp = (hours - 40.0) * (rate * 0.5) pay = reg + otp else: pay = hours * rate #print("Returning",pay) return pay sh = input("Enter Hours: ") sr = input("Enter Rate: ") fh = float(sh) fr = float(sr) xp = computepay(fh,fr)

print("Pay:",xp)

Why isn't this working? It is literally what Chuck did in the video and it works in my command prompt: def computepay(hours, rate) : #print("In computepay", hours, rate) if hours > 40 : reg = rate * hours otp = (hours - 40.0) * (rate * 0.5) pay = reg + otp else: pay = hours * rate #print("Returning",pay) return pay sh = input("Enter Hours: ") sr = input("Enter Rate: ") fh = float(sh) fr = float(sr) xp = computepay(fh,fr) print("Pay:",xp)

IT WAS THE COLON IN THE FINAL PRINT STATEMENT. I AM GOING TO SLEEP. Whew.

not working

It is working, try again.

Be careful for indent when use function.

#Perfectly Working 💙 #function def computepay(hours, per_rate_hours): #overtime if (hours>40): pay = hours * per_rate_hours overtime = (hours - 40) * (0.5 * per_rate_hours) payment = pay + overtime else: payment = hours * per_rate_hours return payment #code begins hours = input("Enter Hours: ") per_rate_hours = input("Enter Per Rate Hour: ") #try and except try: f_hours= float(hours) f_per_rate_hours=float(per_rate_hours) except: print("Error") quit() final_pay = computepay(f_hours, f_per_rate_hours) print("Pay", final_pay)

You will get an error "You have to prompt for the data"...

def computepay(): hours = float(input("Enter Hours:")) rate_per_hour = float(input("Enter Rate per hour:")) if hours>40: pay=(40 rate_per_hour)+((hours-40) rate_per_hour 1.5) else :pay=(hours rate_per_hour) return pay

print("Pay",computepay()) quit()

my code above gives the exact answer but the autograder rejects it by telling that you must prompt for the data

MuhammadShayan17 commented Jul 19, 2021

it's because of the indent issue in line 6; the return function should be backwards, and with the de-indent apart from the above line.. Then I hope that the above code would have worked just right and fine.. :)

The only thing I find wrong in this programming code is the "indent" thing, as I think, you totally forgot about using indents and all..

Hmm, right, but along with this, I guess, there's also the indent thing issue here.. But nvm, all's good when the end's good I guess.. :/

def computepay(): hours = float(input("Enter Hours:")) rate_per_hour = float(input("Enter Rate per hour:")) if hours>40: pay=(40_rate_per_hour)+((hours-40)_rate_per_hour_1.5) else :pay=(hours_rate_per_hour) return pay print("Pay",computepay()) quit() my code above gives the exact answer but the autograder rejects it by telling that you must prompt for the data

Just look for the indent here, I guess. Apart from this, I think the autograder might also be not scanning and coding the double function you've put and typed out there, so yeaah...

ozguripekci commented Jul 19, 2021

Sometimes, "copy and paste" is not working. You need to write all code one-by-one on your IDE. And sometimes because of the "copy and paste", indent problems come through. Best wishes guys.

how can i fix this ?

Pay and over time caculater.

def computepay(hours, rates): if hours <= 40: print(hours * rates) else: print ((hours - 40) * (rates * 1.5) + (40 * rates))

If hours are more than 40, the mean user did over time, and the rate differs from the actual rate. So, first, we count extra hours from 40, then multiply with different rates and then the original hours at the regular rate. Then combine both.

Taking input from user.

hours = float(input("Enter hours :")) rates = float(input("Enter rates :"))

called function

computepay(hours,rates)

Thaks for that comment, it was the solution

def computepay(hours, rate): if hours <= 40: return hours * rate else: overtime_hours = hours - 40 overtime_pay = overtime_hours * (rate * 1.5) return 40 * rate + overtime_pay

hours = float(input("Enter the number of hours worked: ")) rate = float(input("Enter the rate per hour: ")) gross_pay = computepay(hours, rate) print("Pay %.2f" % gross_pay)

its works 100%. def computepay(h,r): if h<=40: pay=h r elif h>40: pay=40 r+(h-40) r 1.5 return(pay)

This worked for me perfectly, most of the times it has to do with indentations, or Colons or " " improperly placed. def computepay(h, r): if hours <= 40: pay = hours * rate else: pay = 40 * rate + (hours - 40) * rate * 1.5 return pay

hours = float(input("Enter hours: ")) rate = float(input("Enter rate per hour: "))

p = computepay(10, 20) print("Pay", p)

Note: There are indentations in this code: if, else and returned must be aligned; pay, pay must also be aligned. If using python 3, hit the tab key once, which should place if right between f in def and space and c in computepay(h,r): The first pay should be right beneath hours of the if statement. The second pay should be beneath se of the else: and lastly return pay should be in alignment with else: so it should be if hours, else: and return pay aligned correctly and the same for pay by using the space bar in your pc. There two spaces after lines:6 and 10

Chapter 11. Assignments, Expressions, and Prints

Now that we’ve had a first introduction to Python statement syntax, this chapter begins our in-depth tour of specific Python statements. We’ll begin with the basics: assignment statements, expression statements, and print operations. We’ve already seen all of these in action, but here we’ll fill in important details we’ve skipped so far. Although they’re relatively simple, as you’ll see, there are optional variations for each of these statement types that will come in handy once you begin writing realistic Python programs.

Assignments

We’ve been using the Python assignment statement for a while to retain objects in examples. In its basic form, you write the target of an assignment on the left of an equals sign, and the object to be assigned on the right. The target on the left may be a name or object component, and the object on the right can be an arbitrary expression that creates an object. For the most part, assignments are straightforward, but here are a few key properties to note up front:

Assignments create object references. As discussed in Chapter 6 , Python assignments store references to objects in names or data structure components. They always create references to objects instead of copying the objects. Because of that, Python variables are more like pointers than data storage areas.

Names are created when first assigned. Python creates a variable name the first time you assign it a value (i.e., an object reference), ...

Different Forms of Assignment Statements in Python

We use Python assignment statements to assign objects to names. The target of an assignment statement is written on the left side of the equal sign (=), and the object on the right can be an arbitrary expression that computes an object.

There are some important properties of assignment in Python :-

• Assignment creates object references instead of copying the objects.
• Python creates a variable name the first time when they are assigned a value.
• Names must be assigned before being referenced.
• There are some operations that perform assignments implicitly.

Assignment statement forms :-

1. Basic form:

This form is the most common form.

2. Tuple assignment:

When we code a tuple on the left side of the =, Python pairs objects on the right side with targets on the left by position and assigns them from left to right. Therefore, the values of x and y are 50 and 100 respectively.

3. List assignment:

This works in the same way as the tuple assignment.

4. Sequence assignment:

In recent version of Python, tuple and list assignment have been generalized into instances of what we now call sequence assignment – any sequence of names can be assigned to any sequence of values, and Python assigns the items one at a time by position.

5. Extended Sequence unpacking:

It allows us to be more flexible in how we select portions of a sequence to assign.

Here, p is matched with the first character in the string on the right and q with the rest. The starred name (*q) is assigned a list, which collects all items in the sequence not assigned to other names.

This is especially handy for a common coding pattern such as splitting a sequence and accessing its front and rest part.

6. Multiple- target assignment:

In this form, Python assigns a reference to the same object (the object which is rightmost) to all the target on the left.

7. Augmented assignment :

The augmented assignment is a shorthand assignment that combines an expression and an assignment.

There are several other augmented assignment forms:
