4.6 Write a program to prompt the user for hours and rate per hour using input to compute gross pay. Pay should be the normal rate for hours up to 40 and time-and-a-half for the hourly rate for all hours worked above 40 hours. Put the logic to do the computation of pay in a function called computepay() and use the function to do the computation…
def computepay(h,r):
if h > 40:
p = 1.5 * r * (h - 40) + (40 *r)
else:
p = h * r
return p
hrs = input("Enter Hours:")
hr = float(hrs)
rphrs = input("Enter rate per hour:")
rphr = float(rphrs)
p = computepay(hr,rphr)
print(p)

def computepay(h,r):

this code will give you exact result without any error

A bit lengthy, but maybe this might work for you!

`def computepay(hrs, rph):
if hrs <= 40:
p = hrs * rph
else:
y = (hrs - 40.0) * (rph*0.5)
x = hrs * rph
p= x+y
return p

Hours=input("Hours: ")
Rate=input("Rate: ")

try:
hrs= float(Hours)
rph= float(Rate)

except:
print("Please enter the correct input")
quit()

print("Pay", computepay(hrs, rph))`

I did a very different way.

hrs = input("Saati gir pezo: ")
h = float(hrs)
hrt = input("Rate kac:")
r = float(hrt)

def computepay(a, b):
if (a <= 40):
islem = a * b
elif (a > 40):
islem = 40 * b + (a-40)b1.5
return islem

t = computepay (h,r)

print("Pay",t)

1.5 * r * (h - 40) + (40 *r) from computation , I get different figures , could you please explain how come it gives the 498.75

Put * instead of + between the last two terms

Note: if you are getting an error, then a simple trick is to align the next line spaces. (for if else, leave 4 spacess like that.. refer image)

and if we use p= float()*float() instead compute pay will it affect my output?

this is right answer

Why did you use 1.5 to multiply? I used 0.5 and i got the same answer as yours. Can you please explain?

It is a good question; I forgot what the question was. :(
