Code:
class ListItem(object):
tools_list = {}
materials_list = {}
def __init__(self, name, cost, typ):
self.name = name
self.cost = cost
self.typ = typ
def add_item(self):
if self.typ == "tool":
if not self.name in self.tools_list:
self.tools_list[self.name] = self.cost
print (self.tools_list)
else:
print ("already added to tools list")
elif self.typ == "material":
if not self.name in self.materials_list:
self.materials_list[self.name] = self.cost
print (self.materials_list)
else:
print ("already added to materials list")
def create_item():
a = input("name of product: ")
b = float(input("cost of product: "))
c = input("type of product: ")
item = ListItem(a, b, c)
item.add_item()
def calculate_total():
tools_list = ListItem()
materials_list = ListItem()
of_what = input("which cost total do you want? (tools, materials, or both) ")
if of_what == "tools":
count = 0
for i in tools_list:
count = count + tools_list[i]
print (count)
return count
elif of_what == "materials":
count = 0
for i in materials_list:
count = count + materials_list[i]
print (count)
return count
elif of_what == "both":
count_t = 0
count_m = 0
for i in tools_list:
count_t = count_t + tools_list[i]
return count
for i in materials_list:
count_m = count_m + materials_list[i]
return count_m
print (count_m + count_t)
return (count_m + count_t)
else:
print("please try again")
Hey! This is the first time I've tried to code anything individually, so I'm sorry if my code is a mess. I want to be able to come up with a way to add the values stored in tools_list and materials_list (local variables in the ListItem class). The calculate_total function was my attempt at this (I know the tools_list = ListItem() was a stupid idea), but I can't figure out a way to get those two dictionaries out of the class and into the function without disrupting the rest of the code. Any ideas? Thanks!
