Hi, i was working on a code for a vending machine and i do consider myself to be a beginner, anyway i feel my code is much longer than it needs to be and i want someone to show me a new, shorter way of presenting it.
import time
print ("Welcome to the Python Vending Machine.")
# Asking the user how much money they wish to enter.
number_of_10p = int(input("How many 10 pence coins would you like to insert? "))
while number_of_10p < 0:
number_of_10p = int(input("Please enter a positive number."))
number_of_20p = int(input("How many 20 pence coins would you like to insert? "))
while number_of_20p < 0:
number_of_20p = int(input("Please enter a positive number."))
number_of_50p = int(input("How many 50 pence coins would you like to insert? "))
while number_of_50p < 0:
number_of_50p = int(input("Please enter a positive number."))
number_of_100p = int(input("How many 1 pound coins would you like to insert? "))
while number_of_100p < 0:
number_of_100p = int(input("Please enter a positive number."))
# Creating a variable to store the total amount of money inserted into the vending machine.
change = round(((number_of_10p * 0.10) + (number_of_20p * 0.20) + (number_of_50p * 0.50) + (number_of_100p * 1.00)),2)
# Informing the user how much they have entered in total.
print ("\nIn total you have entered £", change)
time.sleep(2)
# Creating variables for the 5 products and their respective prices.
product_1, product_1_price = "Flake", 0.55
