The program is an illustration of conditional statements.
Conditional statements are used to execute instructions, if and only if certain <em>condition or conditions </em>are met.
Take for instance: <em>If b = 5, print "ab"</em>
The above print statement will only be executed, if the <em>value of b is 5</em>
The paper-rock-scissor program in Python where comments are used to explain each line is as follows,
#This imports the random module
import random
#This is used to control the repetition of the game
playagain ="T"
#The following is repeated until the user chooses not to play again
while(playagain == "T"):
#This generates a random choice for the computer
computer = random.choice(['Rock', 'Paper', 'Scissors'])
#This gets input for the player
player = input('Choose: ')
#If the player and computer choose the selection
if player == computer:
#Then, it's a tie
print('A tie - Both players chose '+player)
#If the player wins
elif (player.lower() == "Rock".lower() and computer.lower() == "Scissors".lower()) or (player.lower() == "Paper".lower() and computer.lower() == "Rock".lower()) or (player == "Scissors" and computer.lower() == "Paper".lower()):
#This prints "player won" and the reason
print('Player won! '+player +' beats '+computer)
#If otherwise,
else:
#This prints "computer won" and the reason
print('Computer won! '+computer+' beats '+player)
#This asks if the player wants to play again
playagain = input("Play again? T/F: ")
At the end of each round,
- The program displays the winner
- Or prints a tie, if there's a tie

Answer:
Here is the Python program:
small_container = int(input("Enter the number of small containers you recycled?"))
large_container = int(input("Enter the number of large containers you recycled?"))
refund = (small_container * 0.10) + (large_container * 0.25)
print("The total refund for returning the containers is $" + "{0:.2f}".format(float(refund)))
Explanation:
The program first prompts the user to enter the number of small containers. The input value is stored in an integer type variable small_container. The input is basically an integer value.
The program then prompts the user to enter the number of large containers. The input value is stored in an integer type variable large_container. The input is basically an integer value.
refund = (small_container * 0.10) + (large_container * 0.25) This statement computers the refund that will be recieved for returning the small and larger containers. The small containers holding one litre or less have a $0.10 deposit so the number of small containers is multiplied by 0.10. The large containers holding more than one litre have a $0.25 deposit so the number of large containers is multiplied by 0.25. Now both of these calculated deposits of containers of each side are added to return the refund that will be received for returning these containers. This whole computation is stored in refund variable.
print("The total refund for returning the containers is $" + "{0:.2f}".format(float(refund))) This print statement displays the refund in the format given in the question. The output includes a $ sign and displays exactly two decimal places by using {0:.2f} where .2f means 2 decimal places after the decimal point. Then the output is represented in floating point number using. format(float) is used to specify the output type as float to display a floating point refund value up to 2 decimal places.
