Question

'''
You are shopping at a store that is having a special where you do not have to pay the tax on anything that costs 20 dollars or more!
If you have a list of prices for all of your items, what is your total once the tax is added in? Tax is 7% on the items that you would still need to pay tax on.

Task:
Determine the total cost once you include tax of 7% on the items that are still taxed.

Input Format:
A string of numbers, separated by commas, that represent to price of each item that you are going to buy.

Output Format:
A number, rounded to two decimal places, of the total for your purchase once tax is included on items under 20 dollars.
'''
input = input().split(",")
prices = list(map(int,input))
newList = []
for i in prices:
if i <=20:
i *= 1.07
newList.append(i)
else:
newList.append(i)

total_cost = round(sum(newList),2)
print (total_cost)

Suggest me a better way to shorten this code. I have written newList.append(I) twice and it's annoying me.

Thanks.

Answer 1

for i in prices:
if i < 20:
i *= 1.07
newList.append(i)

Instead of appending to new list you could add up directly in the loop

Answer 2

does this works ? its been a while since the last time i use python i might mixed things up
newList.append(i*1.07 if i <= 20 else i)
