Build a Movie Ticket Booking Calculator - Step 8

Tell us what’s happening:

I need help cracking this step, I just cant seem to remember how to update the discount variable inside the if statement.

Your code so far

base_price = 15
age = 21
seat_type = 'Gold'
show_time = 'Evening'

if age > 17:
    print('User is eligible to book a ticket')

if age >= 21:
    print('User is eligible for Evening shows')
else:
    print('User is not eligible for Evening shows')

is_member = True
is_weekend = False

discount = 0
# User Editable Region
if is_member and discount += 3:
    print('User qualifies for membership discount')
# User Editable Region

Hey @kgakgamatsomasiane
If you check your terminal, you’ll be looking at a syntax error. Try to see where you are going wrong over there.

Also check the following line from step instructions

Inside the body of the if statement, update the discount value to 3 and print User qualifies for membership discount to the terminal.
