A little bit of math for Python

So far we have introduced the computer to two types of numbers:

float: numbers with a decimal
int:    whole numbers

Copy this code and have a go with trying the different mathematical symbols.

adding = 4 + 3

print(adding)

subtraction = 8 - 9

print(subtraction)

multiplication = 4 * 32

print(multiplication)

division = 50 / 5

print(division)

# a number raised to the power of some number

# in this example we raise 5 to the power of 2

squared = 5**2

print(squared)

# remainder of a division

modulo = 15 % 4

print(modulo)

# whole number division

divisor = 15 // 2

print(divisor)

Lets get into coding again :

How many seconds are in a year?

tSeconds = int(input("1 min in Sec=:"))
tMinutes = int(input("1 hour in Minutes=:"))
tHours = int(input("1 Day in Hours=:" ))
#tDays = int(input("1 year in Days:"))
tYear = int(input("which year it is"))
# lets check for the leap year
if tYear % 4 == 0:
tDays = 366
Totalsecs = tDays*tHours*tMinutes*tSeconds
print("total seconds in year =",Totalsecs)
else:
tDays = 365
Totalsecs = tDays*tHours*tMinutes*tSeconds
print("total seconds in year =",Totalsecs)
