In replying to what "Stealth Fleet" asked, I have too many comments,
starting with a suggestion to put a SUBECT on the Subject: line.

Your first error was not converting the text input to an integer or floating
point number.

	tokenAmount = input( "How many tokens would you like to buy or cash
in?:  ")

Fix that and then see if other things fail.

BTW, you created functions which take no arguments and use a global variable
but then create local variables that would not persist in a real
application. If your assignment was just to print what would have been
calculated, that may suffice but that may be another area you think more
about.

tokenAmount = input( "How many tokens would you like to buy or cash in?:  ")

print (tokenAmount)



def buy ():

    if tokenAmount <= 400:

        buy = tokenAmount * .2099

        print( " You would like to spend $"+(buy) + "on" + (tokenAmount) +
"tokens.")

    elif tokenAmount > "400" <= "549":

        buy = tokenAmount * .3999

        print( " You would like to spend $"+(buy) + "on" + (tokenAmount) +
"tokens.")

    elif tokenAmount >= "550" <= "749":

        buy = tokenAmount * .4999

        print( " You would like to spend $"+(buy) + "on" + (tokenAmount) +
"tokens.")

    elif tokenAmount >= "750" <= "999":

        buy = tokenAmount * .6299

        print( " You would like to spend $"+(buy) + "on" + (tokenAmount) +
"tokens.")

    else:

        buy = tokenAmount * .7999

        print( " You would like to spend $"+(buy) + "on" + (tokenAmount) +
"tokens.")



def cashIn ():

    cashIn = tokenAmount * .05

    print( "The amount of money you will receive is $"+ (cashIn))



tokenAmount works but the buy and cashIn are not being ran why? When I put
"print(buy, cashIn)" it gives me a long message that ends in an error any
and all help is greatly appreciated. Sent from Mail
