Question

PYTHON Write a function called hourly_employee_input that asks the user for a name (string), hours worked (int) and an hourly pay rate (float) and prints a string including the information.

• Call the function, entering expected values, numbers in appropriate range
• Call the function, entering negative numbers
• Call the function, entering bad input (letters, symbols)
• What do you need to add to your function for bad input? Handle the bad input so your program doesn't end when receiving bad input

Answer 1

#method to calculate total pay
def hourly_employee_input():
#get input from user
name = input("Enter name: ")
hours = input("Enter hours: ")
  
#check hours
if hours.isdigit():
hr = int(hours)
else:
print("Invalid Input!")
return
  
payRate = float(input("Enter hourly pay rate: "))
  
#check pay rate
if isinstance(payRate, float):
rate = payRate
else:
print("Invalid Input!")
return
  
#calculate total pay
totalPay = hr * rate
  
#display total pay
print("Total pay of", name,"=", totalPay)
  
#method calling
hourly_employee_input()

The screenshot of the above code is given below:

#method to calculate total pay def hourly_employee_input: #get input from user name = input("Enter name: ") hours = input ("Enter hours: ") #check hours if hours.isdigit(): hr = int(hours) else: print("Invalid Input!") return payRate = float(input("Enter hourly pay rate: ")) #check pay rate if isinstance (payRate, float): rate = payRate else: print("Invalid Input!") return #calculate total pay totalPay = hr * rate #display total pay print("Total pay of", name, "=", totalPay) #method calling hourly_employee_input()

OUTPUT:

Enter name: ABC Enter hours: 5 Enter hourly pay rate: 10.25 Total pay of ABC = 51.25

Enter name: DEF Enter hours: A Invalid Input!
