Lab Assignment 3: Payment Calculator

Value

This assignment is worth 3% of your final grade.

Background

In this assignment you will be practicing using Python programming for problem solving. You

want to use the proper arithmetic operation and calculate and print the proper value for the

scenario described below.

This assignment relates to the following General Learning Outcomes:

1. Define programming to solve problems

2. Examine different data types and manipulating variables

Instructions

1. Use Intellij Idea write your code and make sure it works for couple of examples. Use this

problem to calculate and print the proper amount of minimum payment for the following

problem:

A credit card company calculates a customer's "minimum payment" according to the

following formula. The minimum payment is equal to either $10 or 19.9% of the

customer's balance, whichever is greater; but if this exceeds the balance, then the

minimum payment will be the balance. Write a program to print out the minimum payment

using Python built-in functions min and max.

Example 1: If your balance is 1000, then your program should print "The minimum

payment is 199".

Example 2: If your balance is 600, then your program should print "The minimum

payment is 119.40".

Example 3: If your balance is 25, then your program should print "The minimum

payment is 10".

Example 4: If your balance is 8, then your program should print "The minimum

payment is 8".

You should start your program like this:

Hello User! What is your balance? <Balance>

Your balance is <Balance>.

The minimum payment is <Minimum Payment>.

Note that <Balance> is your total balance that you start off with. <Minimum payment> is

the minimum payment you have calculated with the above conditions.

2. Please consider all the conditions, as the input could also be a negative number or an

invalid input (string, Nonetype etc.). If user inputs a wrong balance the program outputs:

“Invalid input”

3. Submit your "<FirstName>_<LastName>_Lab3.py" file to the Moodle assignment box.

4. Deadlines will be announced in Moodle. Consider this assignment your opportunity to

integrate what you’ve learned throughout the course.

5. You will be assessed using the rubric provided.
