import math numbers = input() numbers_list = list(map(int, numbers.split(","))) highest = max(numbers_list) remaining = [num for num in numbers_list if num != highest] sum_remaining = sum(remaining) tax = sum_remaining*0.07 discount = sum(remaining)*0.3 discounted_items = sum_remaining-discount new_price =discounted_items+highest+tax savings = sum(numbers_list) - new_price print(round(savings)) This is my code for the super sale quizz. But I only get 4 right of 7. Can anyone help me. It's in Python

Joakim Lindstrom , a quite nice code, but some issues should be fixed: > input numbers should be mapped to float, not to int numbers_list = list(map(float, numbers.split(","))) > the second part of the code where the discount will be calculated looks a bit too complicated - see my sample. > do not use any rounding, just convert the final discount to int. > calculating the tax should use 1.07 not 0.07 # your code: numbers = input() numbers_list = list(map(float, numbers.split(","))) highest = max(numbers_list) remaining = [num for num in numbers_list if num != highest] sum_remaining = sum(remaining) # new: discount = sum_remaining * 0.3 * 1.07 print(int(discount))
