202102 CSCI1110 Lab Assignment 1
Requirements
Write Python code to calculate simple interest.
1. Display a multi-line message
" This Find Simple Interest application will ask user to specify
the amount of a loan and a interest rate, and then calculate and
display the simple interest for the given loan at the specified
interest for 1 year."
2. Ask the user to enter the amount of loan (a float or an integer)
e.g. 1500 for $1,500.
Assign the user’s entry to a variable.
3. Ask the user to enter the interest rate (an integer),
e.g. 10 for 10%.
Assign the user’s entry to a variable.
4. Calculate the simple interest for a year using the formula:
XXXXXXXXXXinterest = principal * rate * time
For example, 1500 * 0.10 * 1 = 150
Assign the result to a variable.
5. Display the result in a two-line sentence that includes the amount of loan,
the interest rate, and the interest for a year, as follow,
" The interest on a loan of $1500 at 10% interest rate for 1 year
is $150."
