Question

The RSC Bookstore is having a three-day sale during which the price of any unsold t-shirt drops 15 percent each day. For example, t-shirt that costs $15.00 on the first day costs 15 percent less, or $12.75, on the second day. On the third day, the same item is 15 percent less than $12.75, or $10.84. Design a python script that will input 5 different t-shirt prices. Output is the original price of each item first day, discounted on day2 and discounted on day3. Print the original price and the price on the 2nd and 3rd days.

1. Ask the user to input the price.

2. Use a loop to request each input a. use a While loop ask the user to enter 999 to end.

3. Print the 3 prices for each discount for each t-shirt price the user inputs

. 4. See the attached image of the output results when the user enters the prices below

. 5. Use a function. Depending upon which part you put in the function will determine whether you need to pass the input into the function

6. include pseudcode

def discountPrice(price):
return price - 0.15 * price

def main():
done = False
while not done:
price = float(input('Enter price of shirt (type 999 to quit): '))
if price == 999:
done = True
else:
for i in range(1, 4):
#loop for i = 1, 2, 3
print('Day {}: price is ${:.2f}'.format(i, price))
price = discountPrice(price)

if __name__ == '__main__':
main()

output
------
Enter price of shirt (type 999 to quit): 15
Day 1: price is $15.00
Day 2: price is $12.75
Day 3: price is $10.84
Enter price of shirt (type 999 to quit): 20
Day 1: price is $20.00
Day 2: price is $17.00
Day 3: price is $14.45
