Question

This is my python assignment

You wrote a program to prompt the user for hours and rate per hour to compute gross pay. Also your pay computation to give the employee 1.5 times the hourly rate for hours worked above 40 hours.

Enter Hours: 45

Enter Rate: 10

Pay: 475.0

(475 = 40 * 10 + 5 * 15)

Rewrite your pay program using try and except so that your program handles non-numeric input gracefully.

Enter Hours: 20

Enter Rate: nine

Error, please enter numeric input

Enter Hours: forty

Error, please enter numeric input

• Run your code with THREE different INPUTS and put the results  at the end of your code as a multi-line comment.

Answer 1

try:
    hours = float(input("Enter Hours: "))
    rate = float(input("Enter Rate: "))
    if hours <= 40:
        print("Pay:", hours * rate)
    else:
        print("Pay:", 40 * rate + (hours - 40) * 1.5 * rate)
except ValueError:
    print("Error, please enter numeric input")
