How to calculate a tip?

Question

Hello, I am new and getting a little confused with Python. I was asked to find a tip, and I did find it but I don't think it was the most efficient way to do it. Got any pointers I could use?

Answer 1

Your solution needs to get input from the user.
We have to use int() function to declare an integer as an input like this

X = int(input)
print(X)

Answer 2

The shortest way to write this is

print(50 * .2)

If you want the user to supply the amount and the percent, you could do something like

bill = float(input("Enter bill amount."))
percent = float(input("Enter tip percent."))
print("Tip =", bill * percent / 100)

In SoloLearn, the user will have to enter the bill amount and tip percentage on separate lines of a single input.

Using float() instead of int() allows the user to enter decimals, not just whole numbers.

Without a code to look at, it's hard to tell about efficiency.

Answer 5

bill = float(input("Enter your bill:"))
tip = float(input("Enter your tip %: "))

tip_amount = bill * 20 / 100
print(f"Your bill was {bill} and your tip will be {tip_amount}")
