Question:
The Last Stop Boutique is having a five-day sale. Each day, starting on Monday, the price will drop 10% of the previous day’s price. For example, if the original price of a product is $20.00, the sale price on Monday would be $18.00 (10% less than the original price). On Tuesday the sale price would be $16.20 (10% less than Monday). On Wednesday the sale price would be $14.58; on Thursday the sale price would be $13.12; and on Friday the sale price would be $11.81. Develop a solution that will calculate the price of an item for each of the five days, given the original price. Test the solution for an item costing $10.00.
item's price at the start of each day together with the identifying day. Assume the item is a pair of sunglasses...Test your Python program with an initial price of $10.00
One way to attach an identifying day to the discounted price for that day is to set up an array, say
days = ["Mon", "Tue", "Wed", "Thu", "Fri"] , then do a for loop that iterated through the array
#initialize some variables before you start your loop.
price = ?
days = ["Mon", "Tue", "Wed", "Thu", "Fri"]
#now Python will loop through that array, returning an element to you each time through the loop,
starting with "Mon"
for day in days:
# do all your discounting for that day, and then print out the discounted price and the day.
E.g. The initial price, $10.00, would be set, say, on Sunday and then when the store opened on Monday, the discount would be applied at the start of each day.
