4.4.6 Presidential Eligibility Extended CodeHS Answers

The most common answer is:

Age = int(input(“Age: “))
BornLocation = str(input(“Born in the U.S.?(Yes/No): “))
Year = input(“Years of Residency: “)
if((Age>=35) and (BornLocation==”Yes”) and (Year>=14)):
print(“You are eligible to run for president!”)
else:
print(“You are not eligible to run for president.”)
if(Age<35):
print(“You are too young. You must be at least 35 years old.”)
if(BornLocation==”No”):
print(“You must be born in the U.S. to run for president.”)
if(Year<14):
print(“You have not been a resident for long enough.”)

To ensure this program runs correctly and adheres to Python syntax, including using standard ASCII quotation marks and converting the “Years of Residency” input to an integer for proper comparison, here’s the revised version:

age = int(input("Age: "))
born_location = input("Born in the U.S.?(Yes/No): ").strip().capitalize()
years_of_residency = int(input("Years of Residency: "))

if age >= 35 and born_location == "Yes" and years_of_residency >= 14:
    print("You are eligible to run for president!")
else:
    print("You are not eligible to run for president.")
    if age < 35:
        print("You are too young. You must be at least 35 years old.")
    if born_location == "No":
        print("You must be born in the U.S. to run for president.")
    if years_of_residency < 14:
        print("You have not been a resident for long enough.")

his code will:

• Prompt the user to enter their age, whether they were born in the U.S., and their years of residency.
• Check if the user meets the eligibility criteria to run for president: at least 35 years old, born in the U.S., and a resident for at least 14 years.
• Print a message informing the user of their eligibility.
• If the user does not meet one or more of the criteria, it will print specific messages explaining which criteria they did not meet.

Adjustments made include:

• Converting BornLocation comparison to use .capitalize() to ensure the comparison works regardless of how the user inputs their answer, assuming they capitalize their “Yes” or “No” response.
• Using .strip() to remove any leading or trailing spaces from the input.
• Changing variable names to snake_case for Python convention (Age, BornLocation, Year to age, born_location, years_of_residency).
