Need help on Ticketing System. Anyone?

Question

You are making a ticketing system.
The price of a single ticket is $100.
For children under 3 years old, the ticket is free.

Your program needs to take the ages of 5 passengers as input and output the total price for their tickets.

What I am writing is:

total = 0
passengers = 0
while passengers <=5:
age = int(input())
if (age == 3):
continue
total += 100
passengers += 1
print (total)

Error I am getting is EOF error in line 4. What’s that? And are the other statements correct?

Answer 1

you put the total and passengers vars within the if-statement so it takes more than 5 passengers which
is not correct. here is my code

total = 0
passengers = 0
while passengers < 5:
age = int(input('enter age: '))
passengers += 1
if age <= 3:
continue
total += 100
print(total)

Answer 2

Code's fine. But when you start at an index of 0 and go until you are past 5, that's 6 values and it only is giving 5. So it hangs on that last iteration when it tries to grab input

while passengers < 5:

Krishnam Raju M Ohh alright. The system has to count the passenger even if s/he is less than 3 years old, just need not add the amount.

Now it worked, after also correcting the age condition!! thanks buddy 😃
