Homework for Week 3

Quiz

Go to Moodle and solve the third quiz about video lectures. You can solve the quiz several times, best attempt counts.

Examples

This week we are into if-else and try-except statements. In real world, programs are developed by mixing these construcs (and others that we'll learn in the future). For example, you can write a program that asks for an input, checks if it is valid, and depending on value entered, chooses what to output.

Example 1

age_as_string = input("How old are you? ")
try:
    # Try to convert the input to an integer
    age = int(age_as_string)
except:
    # Conversion failed, let age be -1 in this case
    age = -1

if age < 0:
    print("This is not a valid age")
elif age < 18:
    print("You are a minor")
elif age < 100:
    print("You are an adult")
else:
    print("Wow, you need a lot of birthday candles!")

Example 2

try:
    x = int(input('Enter the first number: '))
    y = int(input('Enter the second number: '))
except:
    print('Please enter a number')
else:
    # If both int coversions were successful, then continue here
    if x == y:
        print('Numbers are equal')
    else:
        if x < y:
            print(x, 'is less than', y)
        else:
            print(x, 'is greater than', y)

Exercises

1. Name of the month

Write a program that asks the user to enter a month number and then prints the name of the month.

If the user enters an integer outside the range 1...12, then the programs should print a message informing about that. You can assume that the user enters only integers.

Test your program with different inputs.

Here are some examples of program output.

 Enter month number: 2
 February

 Enter month number: 0
 Month number must be in the range [1-12]

 Enter month number: 13
 The year has only 12 months

2. Tax-free income

The amount of tax-free income in Estonia currently depends on the annual income:

  • for annual income up to 6000 euros, tax-free income is equal to annual income
  • for annual income from 6000 euros to 14400 euros, tax-free income is 6000 euros
  • for annual income from 14400 euros to 25200 euros, tax-free income is computed according to the formula 6000 – 6000 ÷ 10800 × (annual_income – 14400)
  • for annual income over 25200 euros, tax-free income is 0 euros.

Write a program that asks for user's annual income (nonnegative floating point number) and computes and outputs the tax-free income rounded to two decimal places.

If the user enters a non-numeric value as the annual income, then the program prints a corresponding message (use try-except). Also the program prints a message, if the user enters a negative value as the annual income.

Example

 Enter your annual income: 16825
 Your tax-free income is 4652.78 euros

 Enter your annual income: large
 Please enter a number!

 Enter your annual income: -100
 Please enter a non-negative value!
