I have been having a bit of trouble with the things mentioned in the title. I
have written the following script for a Codecademy course:
stock = {
"banana": 6,
"apple": 0,
"orange": 32,
"pear": 15
}
prices = {
"banana": 4,
"apple": 2,
"orange": 1.5,
"pear": 3
}
def compute_bill(food):
total = 0
for item in food:
if stock[item] > 0:
total += prices[item]
stock[item] = stock[item] - 1
return total
Whenever I run this script, "4" is returned. It does not seem to matter what in
in the list the script is run on. I have tried this on the Codecademy
interpreter/emulator (I'm not sure which they use) and the repl.it interpreter,
but for the same result. If anyone could find the glitch in my code, please let
me know. Thanks!
