Stock Transaction
Last month, Joe purchased some stock in Acme Software. Inc. Here are the details of the purchase:
▪ The number of shares that Joe purchased was 2,000.
▪ When Joe purchased the stock, he paid $40.00 per share.
▪ Joe paid his stockbroker a commission that amounted to 3 percent of the amount he paid for the stock.
Two weeks later, Joe sold the stock. Here are the details of the sale:
▪ The number of shares that Joe sold was 2,000.
▪ He sold the stock for $42.75 per share.
▪ He paid his stockbroker another commission that amounted to 3 percent of the amount he received for the stock.
Write a program that displays the following information:
▪ The amount of money Joe paid for the stock.
▪ The amount of commission Joe paid his broker when he bought the stock.
▪ The amount for which Joe sold the stock.
▪ The amount of commission Joe paid his broker when he sold the stock.
▪ Display the amount of money that Joe had left when he sold the stock and paid his broker (both times). If this amount is positive, then Joe made a profit. If the amount is negative, then Joe lost money.

- Temperature Statistics Learning Objectives In this lab, you will Create a function to match the specifications Use the if/else statements to detect a range Use lists to store the results Instructions Sahara desert explorers call us for help! They want to know some statistics about the temperature in Sahara, but sometimes their thermometer fails to record the proper temperature. Help them to find which temperature is from correct recordings and which is broken and calculate statistics on given data. During the night, the temperature in Sahara varies from -4 to -10 С. During the day, the temperature varies from 20 to 50 C. Create a function check_input(temperature) that will return True if the temperature given as input can be from Sahara and False if it is from a broken thermometer (i.e., outside of the expected range). Steps Write a program to use the check_input to create a list of valid temperatures and compute their statistics: Create a list, where you will store the…arrow_forwardPersonal BestWrite a program that asks for the name of a pole vaulter and the dates and vaultheights (in meters) of the athlete’s three best vaults. It should then report, in order ofheight (best first), the date on which each vault was made and its height.Input Validation: Only accept values between 2.0 and 5.0 for the heights.arrow_forwardActivity 20 Electric Bill: Using Switch Statement, write a program that will calculate and show bills of the Manila Electric Company. The rates vary depending on whether the use is residential (R), commercial( C) , or industrial (I). Any other code should be treated as an error. The program should accept the subscriber ID, Subscriber Name, his total electrical consumption in a month, and the code of the consumer type. The rates are computed as follows: R: 50 plus .50 per kwh used C: 100 for the first 1000 kwh and 0.45 for each additional kwh I: 180 for the first 1000 kwh and 0.75 for each additional kwharrow_forward

For example, using letters, the telephone number 438-5626 can be shown as GET LOAN. In some cases, to make a telephone number meaningful, companies might use more than seven letters. For example, 255-5466 can be displayed as CALL HOME, which uses eight letters. Write a program that prompts the user to enter a telephone number expressed in letters and outputs the corresponding telephone number in digits. If the user enters more than seven letters, then process only the first seven letters. Also output the hyphen after the third digit. Allow the user to use both uppercase and lowercase letters as well as spaces between words. Moreover, your program should process as many telephone numbers as the user wants.arrow_forward
