Trying to write a very basic payroll program in python, and feel like a fucking retard right now.
Just want the fucker to run until I tell it to stop, but it never runs. Code is latest I've tried thinking of.name = 0
if name != 0:
name = input('Enter employee name: ')
rateofpay = int(input('Enter employee hourly rate: '))
hours = int(input('Enter total hours: '))
overtimerop = (int(hours * 1.5))
othours = int(input('Enter total hours beyond 40: '))
grosspay = (hours * rateofpay) + (othours * overtimerop)
print()
print('Employee: ', name)
print('EE rate of pay: ', rateofpay)
print('EE total hours: ', hours + othours)
print('EE total gross wages: ', grosspay)
else:
name == 0
print('You are now exiting the program.')

OP, I wrote the equivalent of this in QBASIC, with no formal training, no google and no help other than the built-in help, when I was 9 years old.
If you're struggling with this, maybe you should give up programming.
>>55625267
I find that hard to believe
Also, don't be a gigantic faggot, don't respond if you don't have an answer.

>I find that hard to believe
You don't need to, I still have the program :^)

"Name equals 0"
"If name does not equal zero"
You don't know what you are doing
>>55625214
OP if this is not bait I will help you write this program
>>55625267
No one here gives a shit, Go stroke your ego elsewhere.
>>55625464
Nah that's ok. Clearly since I am not a l33t h4x0r like the rest of you fedora faggots I should find help elsewhere.
>>55625214
If you want it to loop until you kill it you will need to put either a for loop or a while loop in there somewhere.
I can write you one in java if you want but you will have to pay me some shekels because i don't work for free.
I don't really know much about python.

I hadn't realize that 4chan could both be helpful and choke on gigantic cocks at the same time. Thanks guise!
>>55625628
What if u get paid on 2 weeks and worked 88 hours total. That could be 40 + 48 or 1 + 87, which would get u different money

>name = 0
>if name != 0 ....
>why doesn't it run
gee i fucking wonder why. you set name to 0 and then do the rest of it only if name is not 0.
>>55625530
Since you declared name to be 0 at the top of your program, the code inside the if statement will never be run (as name will never not equal 0). Instead, use a while loop.# Function that performs payroll calculation
#
# Function syntax:
# def doSomething(employee, business)
# ^name ^parameters (optional)
#
# You must define functions before they are used
def calculate(): # Takes no parameters
# Numbers with decimals are floats (floating-point), not int
payRate = float(input('Enter employee hourly rate: '))
otPayRate = float(payRate * 1.5)
hours = int(input('Enter regular hours: '))
otHours = int(input('Enter overtime hours: '))
pay = (payRate * hours) + (otPayRate * otHours)
print()
print('Employee: ', name)
print('EE rate of pay: ', payRate)
print('EE total hours: ', hours + otHours)
print('EE total gross wages: ', pay)
# While structures loop forever as long as a given condition is met. Syntax:
# while [condition]:
#
# As long as [condition] evaluates to True, the loop will continue unless
# manually stopped with the `break` keyword.
#
# In this case, `True` will always evaluate to True, so this structure will loop
# forever until `break` is called.
while True:
name = input('Enter employee name: ')
# Since name is a string, compare it to "" (empty string), not 0 (integer)
if name == "":
# If name is empty, exit. `break` stops the while loop
print('You are now exiting the program.')
break
else:
# Name is not empty: perform calculation...
calculate()
# ...and loop again (break is not called)
>>55625214
I don't really know python but something like this may work.import sys
while (True) {
name = 0
if name != 0:
name = input('Enter employee name: ')
rateofpay = int(input('Enter employee hourly rate: '))
hours = int(input('Enter total hours: '))
overtimerop = (int(hours * 1.5))
othours = int(input('Enter total hours beyond 40: '))
grosspay = (hours * rateofpay) + (othours * overtimerop)
print("\n")
print('Employee: \n', name)
print('EE rate of pay: \n', rateofpay)
print('EE total hours: \n', hours + othours)
print('EE total gross wages: \n', grosspay)
else:
name == 0
print('You are now exiting the program.\n')
sys.exit(0)
}

>>55625788
Wrong.
>name = 0
>if name != 0
The name input prompt will never be run.

>which would get u different money
And that's perfectly fine, because in one week you had a shitton of overtime hours and those are worth more. Dumbass.

>code box isn't 80 characters wide
What the fug
>>55625804
idgaf it's a useless language soon to be replaced by Rust anyway.
>>55625846
But we don't know the scope of what OP's using this proggy for. What if he wants to calculate wages for 2 months? It would be silly to assume every week only had 40 hours like I'm thinking you're implying he should do.

Stop while you're behind, anon.
This is probably OP's first program. Jesus christ, cut him a break.
>>55625902
b-b-but how am i supposed to look like i have any programming knowledge whatsoever if I can't shit on beginners?
>>55625902
Well if that's true he should turn in his computer to the authorities and give up.
He doesn't have the cognitive capacity to master programming if he can't step through that tiny little bit of code and see why it doesn't run.
>>55625214
>l like a fucking retard right now.
Read your sources, damnit..
The "If"-statement does ONE THING for ONE TIME then goes on.
What you want is probably this:name = ''
while name.strip() != 'q':
name = raw_input("Enter employee name (or q for Quit): ")
print('You are now exiting the program.')
>>55625530
>He asked for help on 4chan and got upset when people made fun of him
It's like you don't know where you are
>>55625780
Makes perfect sense. Much appreciated, anon.
