Keyword cannot be an expression - YorgosTheProgramer - Mar-08-2017
I just started doing a programing course on python and am running into this error with this simple tax calculator . Would anyone be able to explain to me what ive done wrong in as simple as terms as possible ? Thank you in advanced !
TAXRATE = 0.20
STANDARD_DEDUCTION = 10000.0
DEPENDANT_DEDUCTION = 3000.0
grossIncome = float(input("Enter the gross income"))
numDependants = int(input("Enter the number of dependants"))
taxableIncome = grossIncome - STANDARD_DEDUCTION \
- DEPENDANT_DEDUCTION * numDependants
incomeTax = taxableIncome * TAX_RATE
print("The income tax is $" = str(incomeTax))
RE: Keyword cannot be an expression - Larz60+ - Mar-08-2017
you have other issues, but this will get you started:
change TAXRATE to TAX_RATE
and
print("The income tax is ${}".format(incomeTax))
