TICKET_PRICE = 10
tickets_remaining = 100
TICKET_PRICE = 10
ticket_remaining = 100
Out put how many tickets remaining using the tickecket remaining
print("There are {} tickets remaining".format (ticket_remaining)
Gather the user”s name and assign to it to a new varaiable
name = input("What is your name? "
prompt user by name and ask how many tickets they would like?
num_tickets = input("How many tickets would you like {}?".format(name)) num_tickets = int(num_tickets)
Calculate the price (number of tickets multiplied by the price)
amount_due = num_tickets * TICKET_PRICE
Out put the price to the screen
print ("The total_due is ${}".format(amount_due)

For example:
name = input("What is your name? " # original code
name = input("What is your name? ") # fixed
For future questions, please use Markdown formatting for the code. Instructions can be found in the Markdown Cheatsheet pop-up below the "Add an Answer" area.
