CodePudding user response：

You are getting error because of this line:

quantity = str(input())
price = 5.80
total = quantity * price

You are multiplying string with float.

TypeError: can't multiply sequence by non-int of type 'float'

thank you for you help, i found my answer here the correct code:

menu = "Espresso, Americano"

print (menu) order = input()

#changed the quantity variable to an integer so that it can be used in mathematical operations! quantity = int(input("How many " order " would you like?\n"))

#added a total variable and called the calculate_total function to calculate the total

price based on the quantity and price of the order.

def calculate_total(quantity, price): total = quantity * price return total

total = calculate_total(quantity, price[order])
