如何计算 python 中的百分比

Question

This is my program

print" Welcome to NLC Boys Hr. Sec. School "
a=input("\nEnter the Tamil marks :")
b=input("\nEnter the English marks :")
c=input("\nEnter the Maths marks :")
d=input("\nEnter the Science marks :")
e=input("\nEnter the Social science marks :")
tota=a+b+c+d+e
print"Total is: ", tota
per=float(tota)*(100/500)
print "Percentage is: ",per

Result

Welcome to NLC Boys Hr. Sec. School 

Enter the Tamil marks :78

Enter the English marks :98

Enter the Maths marks :56

Enter the Science marks :65

Enter the Social science marks :78 Total is:  375 Percentage is:  0.0

However, the percentage result is 0 . How do I calculate the percentage correctly in Python?

Answer 1

I guess you're learning how to Python. The other answers are right. But I am going to answer your main question: "how to calculate percentage in python"

Although it works the way you did it, it doesn´t look very pythonic. Also, what happens if you need to add a new subject? You'll have to add another variable, use another input, etc. I guess you want the average of all marks, so you will also have to modify the count of the subjects everytime you add a new one! Seems a mess...

I´ll throw a piece of code where the only thing you'll have to do is to add the name of the new subject in a list. If you try to understand this simple piece of code, your Python coding skills will experiment a little bump.

#!/usr/local/bin/python2.7

marks = {} #a dictionary, it's a list of (key : value) pairs (eg. "Maths" : 34)
subjects = ["Tamil","English","Maths","Science","Social"] # this is a list

#here we populate the dictionary with the marks for every subject
for subject in subjects:
   marks[subject] = input("Enter the " + subject + " marks: ")

#and finally the calculation of the total and the average
total = sum(marks.itervalues())
average = float(total) / len(marks)

print ("The total is " + str(total) + " and the average is " + str(average))

Here you can test the code and experiment with it.

Answer 2

You're performing an integer division . Append a .0 to the number literals:

per=float(tota)*(100.0/500.0)

In Python 2.7 the division 100/500==0 .

As pointed out by @unwind, the float() call is superfluous since a multiplication/division by a float returns a float:

per= tota*100.0 / 500

Answer 3

This is because (100/500) is an integer expression yielding 0.

Try

per = 100.0 * tota / 500

there's no need for the float() call, since using a floating-point literal ( 100.0 ) will make the entire expression floating-point anyway.

Answer 4

对我有用的百分比计算：

(new_num - old_num) / old_num * 100.0

Answer 5

marks = raw_input('Enter your Obtain marks:')
outof = raw_input('Enter Out of marks:')
marks = int(marks)
outof = int(outof)
per = marks*100/outof
print 'Your Percentage is:'+str(per)

Note : raw_input() function is used to take input from console and its return string formatted value. So we need to convert into integer otherwise it give error of conversion.

Answer 6

I know I am late, but if you want to know the easiest way, you could do a code like this:

number = 100
right_questions = 1
control = 100
c = control / number
cc = right_questions * c
print float(cc)

You can change up the number score, and right_questions. It will tell you the percent.

Answer 7

def percentage_match(mainvalue,comparevalue):
    if mainvalue >= comparevalue:
        matched_less = mainvalue - comparevalue
        no_percentage_matched = 100 - matched_less*100.0/mainvalue
        no_percentage_matched = str(no_percentage_matched) + ' %'
        return no_percentage_matched 
    else:
        print('please checkout your value')

print percentage_match(100,10)
Ans = 10.0 %

Answer 8

#Just begining my coding career with Python #here's what i wrote its simple

print("\nEnter your marks to calculate percentage")
a=float(input("\nEnter your English marks"))
b=float(input("\nEnter your Mathematics marks"))
c=float(input("\nEnter your Science marks"))
d=float(input("\nEnter your Computer Science marks"))
e=float(input("\nEnter your History marks"))
tot=a+b+c+d+e
print("\nTotal marks obtained",tot)
per=float(tot/500)*100
print("Percentage",per)

Answer 9

You can try the below function using part == total marks out of whole == 500.

def percentage(part, whole):
try:
    if part == 0:
        percentage = 0
    else:
        percentage = 100 * float(part) / float(whole)
    return "{:.0f}".format(percentage)
except Exception as e:
    percentage = 100
    return "{:.0f}".format(percentage)
