I finished the Sal’s Shipping Project and kind of proud of what I came up with and wanted to share my code. Of course there is probably ways to simplify the code, so if you have any suggestions, I would love to hear them.

Wow yours looks amazing!
I wrote a very basic one:
weight = 4.8
#Ground Shipping
if weight <= 2:
Cost_ground = weight * 1.50 + 20
elif weight <= 6:
Cost_ground = weight * 3.00 + 20
elif weight <= 10:
Cost_ground = weight * 4.00 + 20
elif weight > 10:
Cost_ground = weight * 4.75 + 20
else:
print(“Please enter valid weight”)
print("Ground Shipping: ", Cost_ground)
#Premium Shipping
Cost_premium = 125
print("Premium Shipping: ", Cost_premium)
#Drone Shipping
if weight <= 2:
Cost_drone = weight * 4.50
elif weight <= 6:
Cost_drone = weight * 9.00
elif weight <= 10:
Cost_drone = weight * 12.00
elif weight > 10:
Cost_drone = weight * 14.25
else:
print(“Please enter valid weight”)
print("Drone Shipping: ", Cost_drone)

I mean, the base itself is very similar, I only googled how to concatenate strings and int cause I wanted to throw the dollar sign in front of the numbers, in a long string.
I always end up looking at the task, then try and figure out long winded ways to do it, or formatting the text in a very unnecessary way! But it’s always good to share what you have and compare it to others, it’s a great way to improve your programming skills.
Also, you can format your code on the forums so it makes it a little easier to read.
print('Hello')
Just use three backticks``` then close it off with another 3
