Introduction

Like a regular computer language, Python provides many ways to control and specify how values, especially numbers, should be displayed to the user.

ApplicationPractical Learning: Creating the Application

  1. Start Microsoft Visual Studio
  2. In the Visual Studio 2026 dialog box, click Create a New Project
  3. In the Create a New Project dialog box, in the Languages combo box, select Python
  4. In the list of projects templates, click Python Application (it should be selected already).
    Click Next
  5. Specify the Project Name as PayrollEvaluation2
  6. Click Create
  7. Change the code as follows: 
    print("Payroll Evaluation")
print("===========================================================")
print("Enter the following pieces of information")
print("-----------------------------------------------------------")
print("Employee Information")
firstName        = input("First Name:       ")
lastName         = input("Last Name:        ")
hSalary          = float(input("Hourly Salary:    "))
print("===========================================================")
print("Time worked - First Week")
print("-----------------------------------------------------------")
wk1Monday       = float(input("Monday:           "))
wk1Tuesday      = float(input("Tuesday:          "))
wk1Wednesday    = float(input("Wednesday:        "))
wk1Thursday     = float(input("Thursday:         "))
wk1Friday       = float(input("Friday:           "))
print("===========================================================")
print("Time worked - Second Week")
print("-----------------------------------------------------------")
wk2Monday       = float(input("Monday:           "))
wk2Tuesday      = float(input("Tuesday:          "))
wk2Wednesday    = float(input("Wednesday:        "))
wk2Thursday     = float(input("Thursday:         "))
wk2Friday       = float(input("Friday:           "))

wk1TimeWorked   = wk1Monday + wk1Tuesday + wk1Wednesday + wk1Thursday + wk1Friday
wk2TimeWorked   = wk2Monday + wk2Tuesday + wk2Wednesday + wk2Thursday + wk2Friday
    
wk1RegTime      = wk1TimeWorked
wk1Overtime     = 0.00
wk1RegPay       = hSalary * wk1TimeWorked
wk1OverPay      = 0.00
    
wk2RegTime      = wk2TimeWorked
wk2Overtime     = 0.00
wk2RegPay       = hSalary * wk2TimeWorked
wk2OverPay      = 0.00

if wk1TimeWorked > 40.00:
    wk1RegTime  = 40.00
    wk1Overtime = wk1TimeWorked - 40.00
    wk1RegPay   = hSalary * 40.00
    wk1OverPay  = hSalary * 1.50  * wk1Overtime

if wk2TimeWorked > 40.00:
    wk2RegTime  = 40.00
    wk2Overtime = wk2TimeWorked - 40.00
    wk2RegPay   = hSalary * 40.00
    wk2OverPay  = hSalary * 1.50  * wk2Overtime

wk1NetPay       = wk1RegPay + wk1OverPay
wk2NetPay       = wk2RegPay + wk2OverPay
netPay          = wk1NetPay + wk2NetPay

print("===========================================================")
print("Payroll Evaluation")
print("===========================================================")
print("Employee Information")
