Utilizing {0} and Adding Comments - Python Programming Exercise

In this exercise, you will develop a Python program that prompts the user to input three numbers and then displays their product. The program should begin with a comment that includes your name and surname, followed by prompts for the user to enter each number. This task helps you practice handling user input, performing multiplication, and structuring a basic Python program with comments for clarity. By completing this exercise, you will enhance your understanding of Python syntax and the importance of using comments for documentation. It also reinforces the concept of working with variables and how to interact with the user to make your Python programs more dynamic. This task is a great starting point for anyone looking to build interactive applications in Python and apply their programming skills in real-world scenarios.

Utilizing {0} And Adding Comments

 Objective

Develop a Python program that prompts the user to input three numbers and then displays their product. The first line should be a comment with your name and surname. It MUST look as follows:

# Your Name and Surname
Enter the first number to multiply:
12
Enter the second number to multiply:
23
Enter the third number to multiply:
2

 Example Python Exercise

 Copy Python Code 
# Prompt the user to enter the first number
num1 = float(input("Enter the first number to multiply: "))

# Prompt the user to enter the second number
num2 = float(input("Enter the second number to multiply: "))

# Prompt the user to enter the third number
num3 = float(input("Enter the third number to multiply: "))

# Calculate the product of the three numbers
product = num1 * num2 * num3

# Display the result
print(f"The product of {num1}, {num2}, and {num3} is {product}")

 Output

Enter the first number to multiply:
12
Enter the second number to multiply:
23
Enter the third number to multiply:
2
The product of 12.0, 23.0, and 2.0 is 552.0
