Question

For this program you will convert knuts to sickles and galleons (Yes, Harry Potter here...). Your program should first prompt for the the number of knuts. Then perform the calculations: there are 29 knuts in one sickle and 17 sickles in one galleon. Print the results from the calculations. Be sure to print only non-zero values--that means if there are not enough knuts to be one sickle, then (as an example), "O sickles" should not be printed. You must use a combination of if and else statements to solve this problem. Use a while loop to ensure that user enters a positive number.

Answer 1

sum=0 while(sum<1000): num = int(input('Enter number of knuts: ')) if(num<=0): continue sum=sum+num sickle, galleon=0,0 sickle = num//29 galleon = sickle//17 sickle = sickle - galleon 17 if sickle!=0: print(sickle, 'Sickles') if galleon!=0: print(galleon, 'Galleons') Enter number of knuts: 24 Enter number of knuts: 65 2 Sickles Enter number of knuts: 493 1 Galleons Enter number of knuts: 492 16 Sickles

Code

sum=0
while(sum<1000):
num = int(input('Enter number of knuts: '))
if(num<=0):
continue
sum=sum+num
sickle,galleon=0,0
sickle = num//29
galleon = sickle//17
sickle = sickle - galleon*17
if sickle!=0:
print(sickle,'Sickles')
if galleon!=0:
print(galleon,'Galleons')
