Unit 2 Task 1 - Running total at the bake sale

← Unit 2 tasks · Solution

---

You are helping at a school bake sale. After each customer, you type how many dollars they paid (use decimals if needed). When there are no more customers, you enter 0 to finish.

Write a program that:

• Repeatedly asks for a payment amount (use float and input()).
• Stops when the user enters 0 (do not add 0 to the total).
• Prints the sum of all payments, for example: Sum is: 47.5

Use a loop with break when the sentinel value is entered.

Skills: variables, while, if, float, accumulation.
