Question
In football, there is a statistic for quarterbacks called the passer rating. To
calculate the passer rating, you need five inputs: pass completions, pass
attempts, total passing yards, touchdowns, and interceptions. There are five
inputs needed for the calculations and five steps in the algorithm.
Write a program IN PYTHON that asks the user for five inputs:
i. Pass completions
ii. Pass attempts
iii. Total passing yards
iv. Touchdowns
v. Interceptions
Your five inputs should be used to calculate the following:
vi. C = ((completions per attempt * 100)
Explanation / Answer
Code
#!/usr/local/bin/python2.7
# coding: utf-8
passCompletions = raw_input('Enter the number of pass completions')
passAttempts = raw_input('Enter the number of pass attempts')
totalPassingYards = raw_input('Enter the value of total passing yards')
touchDowns = raw_input('Enter the number of touch downs')
interceptions = raw_input("Enter the count of interceptions")
C = (float(passCompletions) * 100 - 30) / 20
Y = (int(totalPassingYards) - 3)/4
T = int(touchDowns) * 20
I = 2.375 - (int(interceptions) * 25)
passerRating = (C+Y+T+I)/6*100
print '*****************************************'
print 'The Passer rating is '
print passerRating
print '*****************************************'
