Help with ballpark problem!

Question

Am i on the right track even? fullorder = input()
order = fullorder.split
cokes = 0
pizza = 0
nachos = 0
cheeseburger = 0
water = 0
menuitems = ["Pizza", "Cheeseburger", " Coke", "Water", "Nachos" ]

if order not in menuitems:
cokes += 1
for word in fullorder:
if word == "Coke":
cokes += 1
if word == "Pizza":
pizza += 1
if word == "Nachos":
nachos += 1
if word == "Water":
water += 1
if word == " Cheeseburger":
cheeseburger += 1
cokeprice = cokes * 5.00
pizza_nachoprice = (pizza + nachos) * 6.00
burgerprice = cheeseburger * 10.00
waterprice = water * 4.00
totalcost = (cokeprice + pizza_nachoprice + waterprice + burgerprice) * 1.07
print(totalcost)

Answer 1

order = input().split(' ')

cokes = 0
pizza = 0
nachos = 0
cheeseburger = 0
water = 0

menuitems = ["Pizza", "Cheeseburger", "Coke", "Water", "Nachos" ]

for word in order:
if word == "Coke":
cokes += 1
elif word == "Pizza":
pizza += 1
elif word == "Nachos":
nachos += 1
elif word == "Water":
water += 1
elif word == " Cheeseburger":
cheeseburger += 1
else:
cokes += 1

cokeprice = cokes * 5.00
pizza_nachoprice = (pizza + nachos) * 6.00
burgerprice = cheeseburger * 10.00
waterprice = water * 4.00
totalcost = (cokeprice + pizza_nachoprice + waterprice + burgerprice) * 1.07
print(totalcost)

Answer 2

There is a much simpler way if you are willing to use dictionaries. But even without it, you can shorten your code by introducing the variable which stores the total early on in your program.

order = input().split(' ')

total = 0

menuitems = ["Pizza", "Cheeseburger", "Coke", "Water", "Nachos" ]

for word in order:
if word == "Coke":
total += 5
elif word == "Pizza":
total += 6
elif word == "Nachos":
total += 6
elif word == "Water":
total += 4
elif word == " Cheeseburger":
total += 10
else:
total += 5

print(total*1.07)

Remember to handle printing only 2 decimal places.

Answer 3

Thank you !

Answer 4

I should change if order not in to :
If word not in menu items, but that diesnt change the first test case not working!! Thanks

Answer 5

order = input().split(' ')
total = 0
menuitems = ["Pizza", "Cheeseburger", "Coke", "Water", "Nachos"]

for word in order:
if word == "Coke":
total += 5
elif word == "Pizza":
total += 6
elif word == "Nachos":
total += 6
elif word == "Water":
total += 4
elif word == " Cheeseburger":
total += 10
else:
total += 5
print(total * 1.07)

This still doesnt work...it seems to be exactly what you posted? :(
