Question

use python to write

You want to figure out how many days you spent in your highschool education. Assign the start and the end year for your highschool studies (or you can make up two years that are at least 2-4 years apart). For simplicity, we will not worry about the months or the actual dates. Write a program that will display how many days you had in that range (inclusive of both the years). For example, if you started your undergrad in 2015 and finished in 2016, you will have 731 days.

[ Hint: you will need to write a loop that runs with that range. Within that loop, you will need to check for leap year. Remember -- our program needs to be general, and so while we have a specific application in mind, the loop we write should be able to work on any two years, no matter how far apart.]

Answer 1

Program Code Screenshot :

- total days.py - D:/Coding/Python/total days.py (3.7.4) File Edit Format Run Options Window Help #Initialize start and finish years start = 2015 finish - 2016 total = 0 for i in range (start, finish+1): #Add days total += 365 #Add 1 more day, if leap year if i$400==0 or (i ==0 and i$100!=0): total+=1 print ('Total days ', total)

Sample Output :

Program Code to Copy

#Initialize start and finish years
start = 2015
finish = 2016

total = 0
for i in range(start,finish+1):
#Add days
total += 365
#Add 1 more day, if leap year
if i%400==0 or (i%4==0 and i%100!=0):
total+=1
print('Total days ',total)
