Atm Bill Dispenser

Fri, 09 Aug 2024 19:17:12 +1000

Today, I was given an assignment to write a program to implement an atm dispenser in the following notes: 100, 50, 20, 10, and 5. If the amount is not a multiply of 5, the atm will return a list of 0.

In the code are short explanations of why I used it.

# asks the customer to enter an amount of number.
atm = int(input("Enter an amount in a multiple of 5: "))

# This takes in a amount parameter which is the input  from the user and return an array of bills in the following orders: [$100, $50, $20, $10, $5]. 
def dispenser(amount):
    
    # if statement to check if number entered is divisible by 5. If not, return with 0, if yes, continue code.
    if atm % 5 != 0:
        return [0, 0, 0, 0, 0]
    
    result = []
    bill_types = [100, 50, 20, 10, 5]

# starts with the starting amount being divided by each number in bill_types.
    for each_note in bill_types:
        note_counts = amount // each_note
        result.append(note_counts)

        # get the remainder and overwrite the previous.
        amount = amount % each_note

    return result

# The code below is what will be given back as a sentence to the customer.
print(f"You entered ${atm}: {dispenser(atm)}")

Commas replaced by dots

It’s been a long time since i’ve done a blog post. I wonder why….

Welp, today I’ve got an assignment, today’s one is to write a python program that prints a version of the strings with all commas replaced by dots. Like this.

Example -

  Input               Output
"Hello, World!"      "Hello. World!"
"725,000"            "725.000"

First, I’m going to do the 1st one. I’m going to assign it to a variable called string.

Assignment 3: Doubling

Today, I was given another assignment. (Which I wasn’t expecting.) Today’s assignment was to write a python program which had to meet the conditions:

Write a Python proram that multiplies all the items in a list by the value of the variable factor.
The program must print the list as the output.
The program should allow multiplying the variable factor by a string in case the list contains strings.
You may assume that the value of factor will be a positive integer.

Assignment 1: Using Length and String

Sun, 15 Oct 2023 11:14:44 +1100

Today, I was given an assignment. My assignment wanted me to write a Python program that pints the length of a string.

This is what I had to print out:

The length of "" is 0.
The length of "H" is 1.
The length of "Hello" is 5.
The length of "Amazing" is 7.

To do this, I have a plan in my mind which is:

Step 1. Find out what I’m going to use.
