Back to Fall2004 Midterm 1 Review

def pay(hours,rate):
  pay = hours*rate
  if pay < 100:
    tax = pay*.25
  if pay >= 200 and pay <300:
    tax = pay*.35
  if pay >= 300 and pay <400:
    tax = pay*.45
  if pay >= 400:
    tax = pay*.50
  print pay
  print pay-tax

are the intervals intentional? There is no range for a gross pay of 100-199.
Whether intentional or not, it seems people earning in that tax bracket get a break. But anyways, jREMOVEDt work according to what it says. Your function would then return gross pay and net pay being equal for amounts in the 100-199 range. Student1594
def pay(hours,hourlyrate):
grosspay=hours*hourly rate
if grosspay <100:
netpay=grosspay *.25
if grosspay>=200 and <300:
netpay=grosspay*.45
if grosspay>+300 and <400:
netpay=grosspay*.45:
if grosspay>=400:
netpay=grosspay*.5
print "gross pay is" + grosspay
print "net pay is" + netpay
If the netpay is the grosspay-taxed amount, wouldn't the netpay be the grosspay multiplied by the amount of grosspay that is left after taxes?? so instead of netpay=grosspay*taxrate, wouldn't it be netpay=grosspay*(1-taxrate) ?
Right, so REMOVEDually you compute 
taxable=grosspay*taxrate
and then 
netpay = grosspay - taxable

def pay(hours, rate):
grossPay = hoursrate
print grossPay
if grossPay 100:
netPay = (grossPay-(grossPay0.25))
if grossPay in range(200,300):
netPay = (grossPay-(grossPay0.35))
if grossPay in range(300, 400):
netPay = (grossPay-(grossPay0.45))
if grossPay >= 400:
netPay = (grossPay-(grossPay0.50))
print netPay
