Having trouble
Specific Question Did you know that there are more bacteria cells in your body than cells that make up your body? Weird! A bacteria culture starts with 500 bacteria and doubles in size every hour. Which means, after 1 hour the number of bacteria is 1000, after 2 hours - 2000, and so on. Letās calculate and output the number of bacteria that will be in the culture after 24 hours. Not sure what to multiply.

always read the task carefully. sometimes there you can find a hint of its solution

Finally after some research solved it. Thank you so much for your help what i was doing wrong was print (500*2^24) when in fact code for 2^24 is written out 2**24. So the answer was print (500*2**24)

Thank you so much, id still be stuck if you didnt help

Or you can use pow function:
pow(3, 2) # output 9 -> 3Ā²
pow(10, 3) # output 1000 -> 10Ā³

#Soution -
bact = 500
for num in range(1,25):
bact = bact*2
print(bact)

THANK YOU ALL

What language?
Simply you can create a loop of 24 hr
And set the following logic
Initial = 500
Inital = Intial * 2 ( mutilation of initial by 2 after updating inital for 24 times )

Hi! Can you show us your code attempt? Thx!

I am entirely new to code, the language is python.

make a try and write at least some code. how can we help you without seeing the code?

in the task itself, at the bottom, in the yellow field, you are even given a hint on which formula to use for this. just write it using python and display the result on the screen. where did you stumble?

The example given is (500 *2n) in python i wrote out print (500*2) and i get the results to 500*2 i dont know where to go from here. Im not sure what exactly they want me to multiply.

500*2 -> this is the progress of bacterial growth in one hour. and in the task, how many hours are you asked to count the bacteria?
0
24 hours

Right! And now insert this number to given formula: 500*2N, where N - number of hours. two to the power of the number of hours
0
So 500 times 2 to the 24 power

yes, you just had to repeat the lesson of exponentiation and remember how this operator looks in python

its too easy use this u can get your output
print(500*2**24)
- 1
bact = 500
for num in range(1,25):
bact = bact*2
print(bact)
