Python 3 - 实现一个函数来计算小时工资和工作小时数

Question

I'm working on a question where I need to create a program that takes two arguments: an hourly wage and the number of hours an employee worked. Any hours beyond 40 is overtime and should be paid at a rate of 1.5 times more.

So far, I've come up with the following:

def wage(hourly, hours)
if hours > 40
#hours over 40 earns overtime rate

It should come out something along the lines of:

   >>> wage(10, 10) 
   100

   >>> wage(10, 35) 
   50

   >> wage(10,45)
   475

The function should output and calculate the values based off how the program is written. I'm just not sure how to implement the proper iteration with the user-defined function in order to output the proper values.

As reference, heres the original question:

Implement function wage() that takes two arguments: an hourly wage and the number of hours an employee worked in the last week. Your function should compute and return the employee's pay. Any hours worked beyond 40 is overtime and should be paid at 1.5 times the regular hourly wage. Make sure to add a Docstring to tell the user how the program works.

Answer 1

Just multiply hourly against hours, compute overtime and add that to salary. Since you already added regular hourly rate, you add 0.5 * overtime.

def wage(hourly, hours):
    salary = hourly * hours
    if hours > 40:
        overtime = 40 - hours
        salary += 0.5 * overtime
    return salary

Answer 2

Even if I strongly believe that you should really do it yourself, since you should know this thing if you are going to use Python, here is the answer:

def wage(hourly,hours):
        if hours > 40:
                payment = 40 * hourly  # Standard Payment until 40 Hours
                payment = payment + hourly * (hours-40) * 1.5  # + the rest which has more rate
                return payment
        else:
                return hours * hourly  # Otherwise Normal Payment

You need to find the amount of hours that the person worked that are over 40. These have the 1.5 rate. So, the first 40 hours have standard rate. That's why you need to subtract the first 40 hours from the rest, in the first case.
