I can't figure out how to do something in Turing, I'm trying to write out a program that calculates the weekly pay for an employee. So if they work 20 hours or less they're payed $9/h, etc. It looked like this @ one point: if workHours <= 20 then workHours * 9 elsif workHours > 20 then workHours * 11 elsif workHours >= 40 then workHours * 17 end if and obviously it's not working, but I can't seem to find out how else to figure out the weekly pay per hours... ![]() |

The problem here is that you're creating a new value by multiplying two numbers together, but you're not storing that value in a variable. Maybe call that variable 'pay'. Then that line should look like this: then pay := workHours * 9 |
