Decision Structure Problem

For this assignment you will do 2 things:

  • Solve the problem with pseudocode (FIRST)
  • Code it in Python

A person is eligible to be a US senator if they are at least 30 years old and have been a US citizen for at least 9 years.  To be a US representative these numbers are 25 and 7, respectively.  Write a program that accepts a person's age and years of citizenship as input and outputs their eligibility for the Senate and House.

In addition to the criteria specified criteria, include the following

  • Input validation in the program – if these are not met the program should tell the user the problem and start over:
    • Age must be at least 18.
    • The number of years of citizenship must be at least 1.

 

Focus on:

  • Properly written algorithm                                      (20)
    -is detailed and complete
    -shows decision structure
  • Intro and description of program displayed              (5)
  • User friendliness of program in general                    (5)
  • Variables and constants used                                   (10)
    • Declaration
    • Initialization
    • Used in comparisons
  • Decision structure used to determine eligibility          (30)
  • Input Validation                                                           (20)
    • Age must be at least 18.
    • The number of years of citizenship must be at least 1.
  • Output                                                                        (10)
    -Nice display of user interface and final output. Use of blank lines or some kind of separation between input and output.
