Advanced Variable Manipulation

Welcome to the next level of your Python programming journey! Just as elite athletes refine their techniques to gain a competitive edge, mastering advanced variable manipulation will enhance your ability to handle and analyze data efficiently

Imagine you're analyzing a basketball game and need to calculate a player's shooting accuracy. To calculate the shooting accuracy as a percentage, you can perform a division and then convert the result to a percentage:

1234567
player_name = "Stephen Curry" shots_made = 10 shots_attempted = 15 shooting_accuracy = (shots_made / shots_attempted) * 100 shooting_accuracy = round(shooting_accuracy, 2) print(f"{player_name}'s shooting accuracy is {shooting_accuracy}%.")
copy

Use the round() function to ensure precision in your calculations, especially when dealing with percentages or averages.

Python provides a variety of built-in functions that can simplify complex operations. For instance, you can use the max() and min() functions to find the highest and lowest scores in a list:

12345
scores = [25, 30, 22, 18] highest_score = max(scores) lowest_score = min(scores) print(f"Highest Score: {highest_score}, Lowest Score: {lowest_score}")
copy

Let's say you want to calculate a player's free throw success rate, which requires dividing the number of successful free throws by the total attempts and converting the result to a percentage:

123456
free_throws_made = 5 free_throws_attempted = 6 free_throw_percentage = (free_throws_made / free_throws_attempted) * 100 free_throw_percentage = round(free_throw_percentage, 2) print(f"free throw percentage is {free_throw_percentage}%.")

Certainly! Let's correct the order of the steps to ensure that edge cases are handled first.

Your goal is to complete the calculate_win_percentage function that calculates the win percentage for a given team

Inputs:

  1. games_played: An integer representing the total number of games played by the team.
  2. games_won: An integer representing the number of games won by the team.

Steps:

  1. Handle Edge Cases: Check if games_played is zero. If so, return 0.0 to avoid division by zero.

  2. Calculate Win Percentage:

    • Divide games_won by games_played to get the win ratio.
    • Multiply the result by 100 to convert it to a percentage.
  3. Round the Result: Use the round() function to round the win percentage to two decimal places for precision.

  4. Return the Win Percentage: Ensure the function returns the calculated win percentage as a float.
