here is the code I did. run it, it works.<\/span><\/p>\n

just need to reflect the computegrade and make that work too<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

# Given a given a numerical grade between 0.0 and 1.0<\/p>\n

#This program converts the numerical score in letter grade.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

#Prompt user for score between 0.0 and 1.0<\/p>\n

prompt1 = “Please enter a score between 0.0 and 1.0: “<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

#convert input to float, because the input statement accepts user input as a string by default<\/p>\n

#Wrap within a try-except code block to exit gracefully as the conversion will fall if the user supplied a non-numeric input!<\/p>\n

try:<\/p>\n

\u00a0 score = input (prompt1)<\/p>\n

\u00a0 score = float(score)<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

#Print the result<\/p>\n

\u00a0 if score <=1.0:<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0if 0.9 <= score <= 1.0:<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 print(“Your grade is an A”)<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0elif score >= 0.8:<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 print(“Your grade is a B”)<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0elif score >= 0.7:<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 print(“Your grade is a C”)<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0elif score >= 0.6:<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 print(“Your grade is a D”)<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0elif score < \u00a00.6:<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 print(“Your grade is an F”)<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0 else: \u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0print (“Error, score cannot be greater than 1.0”)<\/p>\n

except:<\/p>\n
