Break and Continue

Question

You are making a ticketing system.
The price of a single ticket is $100.
For children under 3 years of age, the ticket is free.

Your program needs to take the ages of 5 passengers as input and output the total price for their tickets.

Sample Input
18
24
2
5
42

Sample Output
400

I'm stuck on this program. Kindly assist me if you can

Answer 1

Tochukwu Onyebueke You read the age one time only (int(input()) call) but you have to do 5 times (same time that your while loop is executed then try to move the reading of age inside the while loop..

Pseudo code:
For 5 times
read the next age as int
if the age is more than 2
the total is incremented by 100
after the loop, print the total

Answer 2

Why everyone giving him solution?? Instead of explanation.

Answer 3

And also
hint2: only add 100 to total when age is greater than 2.
And hint3: update p-=1 outside if.

Answer 4

Hi! if this topic is difficult for you, please take the lesson again (which precedes this task) or go back a few steps and start learning all the lesson topics more carefully and diligently again. you were given enough clues, the pseudo code was especially good! 👍😊

Or start learn python from another sources:

Answer 5

KrOW I did it

total = 0
x = 0
while x < 5:
age =int(input())
if age > 3:
total += 100
x += 1
print(total)

Thanks

Answer 6

🔴Break : break or Stop the loop

🔴Continue : skip the part according to the condition

Answer 7

I agree with you completely. I dont approve of it either. but how to ban? its impossible

Answer 8

Here's my attempt

total = 0
p = 5
age = int(input())
while p > 0:
total += 100
if age >2:
continue
print(total)
p -=1

Answer 9

Tochukwu Onyebueke You have to read all 5 int (eg. ages) but i see that you read only one of them.
Futhermore you have to print the total after processed all ages
(hint: input() have to be in loop)

Answer 10

total = 0

i = 5

While i < 5 :
age = int(input())
If age < 3:
continue
Total += 100

print(total)

Answer 11

I used this one it works

total = 0
passengers = 5
ticket = 100
while passengers > 0:
passengers -= 1
age=int(input())
if age<3:
continue
elif age>2:
total += ticket

print(total)

Answer 12

KrOW how? I don't get it. I'm so confused right now

Answer 13

Maybe try if age is greater than or equal to 3 add 100 to total all in the loop then print total

Answer 14

dan an End Of Line Error occurs
