Thomas' Logical Turtle Exercise

Here is the link to the code I am embedding:

Reflection: I wanted to create a calculator for tuition as that affects all of our lives now as graduate students. Here is a copy of my code. ``` #Calculating Tuition try: hours = input(‘Enter hours:’) tuition = input(‘Enter tuition:’) if int(hours) <= 12: total_tuition = int(hours)int(tuition) print(‘Total Tuition:’, int(total_tuition)) else : total_tuition = int(hours)2int(tuition) print(‘Total Tuition:’, int(total_tuition)) except : print(‘Error, please enter numeric input (no commas)’) hours = input(‘Enter hours:’) tuition = input(‘Enter tuition:’) if int(hours) <= 12 : print(‘Total Tuition:’, int(hours)int(tuition)) else : print(‘Total Tuition:’, int(hours)2int(tuition)) #Annual Tuition if int(hours) <= 12 : total_tuition = int(hours)int(tuition) else : total_tuition = int(hours)2int(tuition) annual_tuition = int(total_tuition)2 print(‘Annual Tuition:’, int(annual_tuition)) ‘’’ I wanted to add a out of state vs. in-state part of the calculator, but that is the one thing I struggled on the most. I tried for over an hour and then slept on it but still couldnt figure out a good way to do it that was user friendly. Other than that it is a lot like our weekly-pay calculator. I think it has a lot of replay value becuase you’d use it for every semester/year you were in school.
