How to Work with Variables in Python
Imagine you got the cost of an item saved in the price variable and you want to apply a 15% discount. You can simply reassign the updated value like this:
# Initial price price = 50 # Applying the discount price = price * (1 - 0.15) print(price)
Task
Swipe to start coding
A teacher is dividing 47 students into groups of 6.
Your task:
- Create a variable called
extra_students. - Find the remainder when the number of students is divided by 6.
- Store the remainder in the variable
extra_students. - Use the modulus operator (
%) to find the remainder.
