Question

Calculating Charges - Part 2

1. Calculate the mileage charge
2. Depending on the rental type, the mileage charge is calculated differently. You will need to create additional code to calculate the mileage charge for each type of rental. Store the cost of miles driven as the variable mileCharge

   Set the user input equal to rentalCode.

   rentalCode = input("(B)udget, (D)aily, or (W)eekly rental?\n")
   

   1. Prompt the user to input the Rental Code.

      Prompt: "(B)udget, (D)aily, or (W)eekly rental?\n"
      Variable: rentalCode = ?

   2. Code B (budget) mileage charge: $0.25 for each mile driven

      mileCharge = totalMiles x 0.25

   3. Code D (daily) mileage charge: no charge if the average number of miles driven per day is 100 miles or less;
      1. Calculate the averageDayMiles = totalMiles/rentalPeriod
         1. If averageDayMiles is 100 or less,

            extraMiles = 0

            If averageDayMiles is above the 100 mile per day limit, calculate:

            extraMiles = averageDayMiles - 100

         2. Calculate the cost of the extra miles:

            extraMiles x $0.25

      2. Code `W` (weekly) mileage charge: no charge if the average number of miles driven per week is 900 miles or less.
         1. Calculate the average weekly miles

            averageWeekMiles = totalMiles/ rentalPeriod

         2. If the average number of miles driven per week exceeds 900 miles, the mileCharge is $100.00 per week, otherwise, the mileCharge is $0.00
      3. Test your code.

Answer 1

Answer: Hey! Kindly find your code here. If you have any queries, feel free to ask me, would be very happy to solve them. You didn't mention any language so I used pythonThanks.

print("Rental Code")
print("B-(Budget),D(Daily),W(Weekly)")
totalMiles = float(input("Enter total miles"))
rentalPeriod = float(input("Enter period of rental"))
averageDayMiles = totalMiles/rentalPeriod
averageWeekMiles = totalMiles/rentalPeriod
rentalCode = input("Enter rental code: ")
if rentalCode =="B":
   mileCharge = totalMiles*0.25
   print("Your mile charge is: $",mileCharge)
elif rentalCode == "D":
   if averageDayMiles<=100:
       extraMiles = 0
       print("You have no charge")
   else:
       extraMiles = averageDayMiles-100
       mileCharge = extraMiles*0.25
       print("Your mile charge is: $",mileCharge)
elif rentalCode =="W":
   if averageWeekMiles<=900:
   mileCharge = 0
   print("Your mile charge is: $",mileCharge)
     
   else:
       mileCharge = 100
       print("Your mile charge is: $",mileCharge)
