So far ive come up with this code. But it seems not to be working,
Can
someone please help me figure out what ive done wrong
def main ():
print "The program converts Miles Per Gallon (US) to Liters Per
100
Kilometer."
kilometers = input ("What is the Miles Per Gallon?")
This might be better named mpg?
MilesperUSGallon * (1.60934/3.78541) = kilometersperliter.
1/(kilometers
per liter) = liters per kilometer. Liters/kilometer * 100 = liters
per 100
km.
I have no idea what you think this line does but it isn't valid Python
so you will get an error!
MilesperUSGallon * (1.60934/3.78541) = kilometersperliter
This bit is almost valid except you dont define kilometersperliter
anywhere.
. 1/(kilometers per liter) = liters per kilometer. Liters/kilometer *
100 = liters per 100 km.
But this makes no sense whatsoever to me or Python...
Do you think the dot at the front makes it a comment maybe?
If so you need to use a # sign. But I'm still notclear what
the comment refers to in your program?
print "The Distance in Miles per Gallon", miles\
And I'm not sure why there is a \ at the end of this line?
But is has giving me an error like ive done something wrong with the
spacing..
HTH,
