The function seems to work just fine; it prints everything as it should be in the terminal, but only the first 2 requirements in the “Tests” section are validated.
Your code so far
def apply_discount(price, discount):
if not isinstance(price, (int,float)):
pri_warning_str = print('The price should be a number')
return pri_warning_str
elif price <= 0:
return print('The price should be greater than 0 ')
if not isinstance(discount, (int,float)) :
dis_warning_str = print('The discount should be a number')
return dis_warning_str
elif discount < 0 or discount > 100 :
return print('The discount should be between 0 and 100')
else:
discount_amount = price * (discount/100)
final_price = price - discount_amount
print(final_price)
apply_discount(100, 20)
apply_discount(200, 50)
apply_discount(50, 0)
apply_discount(800, 100)
apply_discount(74.5, 20.0)
apply_discount(200, 200)

Thanks a lot, I realised i dint need to return print and could just use return with parentheses and then the string. Now all the test have a tick exept the 5th, also I see nothing printed on the terminal. Below is my code:
def apply_discount(price, discount):
if not isinstance(price, (int,float)):
return (‘The price should be a number’)
elif price <= 0:
return ('The price should be greater than 0 ')
if not isinstance(discount, (int,float)) :
return (‘The discount should be a number’)
elif discount < 0 or discount > 100 :
return (‘The discount should be between 0 and 100’)
Look closely. Does you message match exactly to the instructions?
In the future, when you post your updated code, please format it as follows:
There are two ways you can format your code to make it easier to read and test:
After you copy/paste your code into the editor, select it by dragging your cursor over it then click the (</>) button in the toolbar to automatically wrap your code in backticks. (You can click on the animated demo image below to enlarge it.)
Manually add three backticks on a new line above your code and on a new line after your code. Note that a backtick is NOT the same as a single quote('). To find the backtick key on your keyboard, see this post.
To see changes to your post as you make them, you can click the (M+) button on the toolbar to bring up the rich text editor:
