Balconies

Question

2 Tests Passe But 3 Left

Answer 1

a = str(input())

#Ginormous for loop average user
a_dim1 = ""
a_dim2 = ""
a_count = 0
for i in a:
if i == ",":
a_count += 1
a_dim1 = a[0:a_count-1]
a_dim2 = a[a_count:]
else:
a_count += 1
a_area = float(a_dim1) * float(a_dim2)

#Simple string func enjoyer
b = str(input())
r = b.index(",")
b_dim1 = b[:r]
b_dim2 = b[r+1:]
b_area = float(b_dim1) * float(b_dim2)

#Area comparison
w = a_area > b_area

#Correct output based on comparison result
if w:
print("Apartment A")
else:
print("Apartment B")

Answer 2

Task description said only greather and your above mentioned code some others.

Answer 3

The problem is in receiving of input. The input are two strings and each of it has two numbers separated by comma. This must be implemented.

Answer 4

For learning is better to try yourself. You can write an attempt in SL Playground and test it. Here a hint:

1. Receive two strings,
2. Divide each string into two, one from before comma and the second from after the comma character.
3. Convert each to a number
4. And then you can use for the rest of your code above mentioned functions and if else statement.

For more help please link your attempt from SL Playground with a concrete question.

Answer 5

Aakash Gupta ,

the input is still an issue. this is what the task description says:

Sample Input
'5,5'
'2,10'

to see what the input looks like, include an output of your variables (a, b, c, d) for temporary debugging.

Answer 6

Aakash Gupta there are two fundamental issues that are preventing the code from passing the tests.

1. Handling input
2. Calling the functions

The scanf input format specifier string is often tricky to get right. Notice the example input has separating commas. If you insert the two commas in the scanf specifier string at just the right places, then scanf will read the integer values correctly and skip past the commas.

The two area functions do the same calculation. Why not just define one function and call it for both calculations, say area(int length, int width)?

Before the if statement, the code calls the area functions but does not use or store their results. You may as well delete those two lines.

The if statement compares the addresses of the area functions. It does not call the functions and compare their return values. Make it call the functions there.

If you fix the scanf format specifier and the if conditional so that it calls the functions, then the program should pass.

Answer 7

#include <stdio.h>
int areaA(int a, int b){
return a*b;
}
int areaB(int c, int d){
return c*d;
}

int main(){
int a,b,c,d;
scanf("%d%d%d%d", &a , &b, &c, &d);
areaA(a,b);
areaB(c,d);
if(areaA>=areaB){
printf("Apartment A");
}
else{
printf("Apartment B");
}

return 0;
}

Answer 8

Nothing Happens... still 2 passes

Answer 9

Can you show me how can i implement?

Answer 10

Aakash Gupta is that you are trying to solve python code? I can help you out in this.

Answer 11

Hi! IDK if ur goal is solve it with Python or not, but checked ur account and saw that u do python as well
In my code i used 2 different approaches to define the 1st element of input and 2nd (did that to familiarise myself with the material that i just learned) I'm a complete beginner so my code most likely isn't the best option but it passes the test.
Basically what my code do is converting input into a string and defines first part of the input and second based on it position relatively the "," symbol (left part and right)
Hope you'll find some insights in my code.
Here it is:

a = str(input())

#Ginormous for loop average user
a_dim1 = ""
a_dim2 = ""
a_count = 0
for i in a:
if i == ",":
a_count += 1
a_dim1 = a[0:a_count-1]
a_dim2 = a[a_count:]
else:
a_count += 1
a_area = float(a_dim1) * float(a_dim2)

#Simple string func enjoyer
b = str(input())
r = b.index(",")
b_dim1 = b[:r]
b_dim2 = b[r+1:]
b_area = float(b_dim1) * float(b_dim2)

#Area comparison
w = a_area > b_area

#Correct output based o

Answer 12

#Correct output based on comparison result
if w:
print("Apartment A")
else:
print("Apartment B")

Answer 13

Sorry Pavlov but it got error in its first line🥲. You can try this code on Balconies challenge in Code Coach section

Answer 14

I will paste it as a separate message, and don't forget switch your language in the code coach to Python
I copied it straight from my code section on this task and also checked it to be shure that it works

Answer 15

Thank You Sir.. Actually It was my indentation mistake on previous one

Answer 16

U're welcome !
This is my firs time answering to someone, got some shivers thank u ;D
Started learning 5 days ago
Good luck on ur programming journey :)

Answer 17

Thank You Pavlov and You Too Good Luck
