--description--

The bill is split, but division often results in long decimal numbers. Since money is typically represented with two decimal places, you should round the final result.

In an earlier lesson, you learned about the round() function which takes two arguments: the number you want to round and the number of decimal places to keep. Here's an example:

num = 4.815162342
round(num, 3) # 4.815

Use the round() function to round final_bill to two decimal places and assign the result to a new variable named each_pays.

Finally, use print() to display the string Each person pays: followed by a space and your each_pays variable.

With that, the bill splitter workshop is complete.

--hints--

You should define a variable named each_pays.

({
    test: () => assert(runPython(`
    _Node(_code).has_variable('each_pays')
    `))
})

You should use the round() function to round final_bill to two decimal places and assign the result to your each_pays variable.

({
    test: () => assert(runPython(`
    _Node(_code).find_variable('each_pays').is_equivalent('each_pays = round(final_bill, 2)')
    `))
})

You should use print() to display the string Each person pays: followed by a space and your each_pays variable.

({
    test: () => assert(runPython(`
    _Node(_code).has_call("print('Each person pays:', each_pays)") or _Node(_code).has_call("print(f'Each person pays: {each_pays}')")`))
})
