[Tutor] Income calculator

[Boykie Mackay]

I have tried the code and it does give a syntax error.Another lesson for
me I guess.I should test code before posting,unless I'm sure of my post.

The problem was with the brackets in lines 17/18.I got the code running
but I don't think the 'quit' function works as it should.

Being a novice I think it would be something for me to come back to
later.
