You are going to build some logic for a habit tracking app. Habit tracking apps such as Habitica help users develop healthy habits.
Each habit is assigned a size such as small, medium, or large. Each size is assigned a different point value. Users earn points based on the habits they complete.
- A large habit is worth 30 points
- A medium habit is worth 20 points
- A small habit is worth 5 points.

A["Large (30 points)"]
B["Medium (20 points)"]
C["Small (5 points)"]
Bind a variable small
, medium
, and large
to represent the point value as an integer (see above) for each habit. You will use these variables in further solutions.
Example solution
large = 30
medium = 20
small = 5
Enter your solution below.
Given a user has completed one small habit, one medium habit, and one large habit, use arithmetic operators and your previously bound variables small
, medium
, and large
to determine how many points they have in total.

Example solution
small + medium + large
Enter your answer in the code cell below.
Given a user has completed ten small habits, five medium habits, and three large habits, use arithmetic operators to determine how many points they have in total.
Example solution
small * 10 + medium * 5 + large * 3
Enter your answer below.
Users define a goal
number of points to earn each day. Determine what percentage progress have they made if they would like to earn 40
points and have completed a small
and a medium
habit.
Remember that you can calculate percentage with
Example solution
goal = 40
((small + medium) / goal) * 100
Or you might consider binding points
as a variable.
goal = 40
points = small + medium
(points / goal) * 100
Enter your answer below.
To motivate users to complete their habits quickly, we add a time-limit feature where users will receive a 60%
point bonus if they complete their habit early, and a 50%
point penalty if they complete their habit late.
Determine the users total point score when they complete:
- three early small habits
- two normal medium habits
- two late large habits
Example solution
goal = 40
small * 1.6 * 3 + medium * 2 + large * 2 * 0.5
Enter your answer below.
Add your own feature to the habit tracking app. Use comments to describe your feature and show how it would affect calculating the total score and/or the total percentage of completed habits.
