practice pyhton problem
Ok, I just started into python today. I was looking at a bunch of examples and tried a few. Then i decided to make somehting worthless just to combine some stuff. I am trying to work out using else and elif to be used together. here is what I have….
string1 = raw_input("What is your name? ")
integer1 = input("How much do you make a year? ")
string2 = raw_input ("What is your friend's name? ")
integer2 = input("How much does your friend make a year? ")
print string1, "makes", integer1, "yearly while ", string2, "makes ", integer2, "yearly ",
integer3 = integer2 - integer1
integer4 = integer1 - integer2
if integer1 < integer2:
print string2, "makes more money than", string1, "by", integer3, "dollars",
else:
print string1, "makes more money than", string2, "by", integer4, "dollars",
elif integer1 == integer2
print string1, "and", string2, "both make", integer1,
any help will be appreciated! I am here to learn
ok, now this is what the code looks like….
string1 = raw_input("What is your name? " )
integer1 = input("How much do you make a year? " )
string2 = raw_input ("What is your friend's name? " )
integer2 = input("How much does your friend make a year? " )
print string1, "makes", integer1, "yearly while ", string2, "makes ", integer2, "yearly ",
integer3 = integer2 - integer1
integer4 = integer1 - integer2
if integer1 < integer2:
print string2, "makes more money than", string1, "by", integer3, "dollars",
elif integer1 > integer2:
print string1, "makes more money than", string2, "by", integer4, "dollars",
else:
print string1, "and", string2, "both make", integer1, “dollarsâ€,
now when i run it I get a syntax error at the if and I dunno why.
try indenting?
<tab here>do whatever```
I know a little python and you have to indent wtih if statements
Edit: nvm, here:
```markupprint "Money Maker!"
string1 = raw_input("What is your name? " )
integer1 = input("How much do you make a year? " )
string2 = raw_input ("What is your friend's name? " )
integer2 = input("How much does your friend make a year? " )
print string1, "makes", integer1, "yearly while ", string2, "makes ", integer2, "yearly ",
integer3 = integer2 - integer1
integer4 = integer1 - integer2
if integer1 < integer2:
print string2, "makes more money than", string1, "by", integer3, "dollars",
elif integer1 > integer2:
print string1, "makes more money than", string2, "by", integer4, "dollars",
else:
print string1, "and", string2, "both make", integer1, "dollars"```
that works, you had wrong quotes on last line
