Question

Exercise 8.1.9: Diving Contest Your school is hosting a diving contest, and they need a programmer to work on the scoreboard! Your job is to calculate each diver's total after the three judges hold up their individual scores. Write the function calculate_score which takes a tuple of three numbers from 0 to 10 and calculates the sum. A perfect dive is worth 30 points, a belly flop is worth 0. For example: calculate_score((10, 10, 10)) # => 30 calculate_score((9, 9, 6)) # => 24 can someone help?

Answer 1

Answer:

def calculate_score(theTuple):

    first, second, third = theTuple

    if first >= 0 and first <=10 and second >= 0 and second <=10 and third >= 0 and third <=10:

         print(first + second+third)

    else:

         print("Range must be 0 to 10")

Explanation:

This line defines the function

def calculate_score(theTuple):

This line gets the content of the function

    first, second, third = theTuple

The following if condition checks if the digits are in the range 0 to 10

    if first >= 0 and first <=10 and second >= 0 and second <=10 and third >= 0 and third <=10:

This calculates the sum

         print(first + second+third)

else:

If number is outside range 0 and 10, this line is executed

         print("Range must be 0 to 10")
