1. Give several reasons why Python is such a great programming language. Explain how 2. Python is related to flowcharts.

Consider this program:
Cost1 = input("Please enter the first expense: ")
Cost2 = input("Please enter the second expense: ")
print("Your total for both expenses was", Cost1 + Cost2)
If the user inputs “10” for the first expense and “20” for the second expense, what will the interpreter show in the final line when this program is run? If this result in not what the programmer intended, how would you explain what went wrong?

3. You are writing a line of code that should ask the user to input the balance of their bank account in dollars and cents. The program will then perform a multiplication problem to tell the user how much interest they can earn. Identify three errors in your line of input code and explain why they are incorrect. Include the corrected line of code in your answer. Here is the code:
1num = input(What is your balance?)
4. What are some kinds of comments that might be useful for a programmer to include in a program?
5. If you were planning how to write a program, at what point would a flowchart be helpful? At what point would pseudocode be helpful? Explain your reasoning.
