Supermarket Billing System with Python
Level 2: Intermediate
Project Level 2: Intermediate
This project is designed for intermediate learners who know Python fundamentals and are practicing building complete programs.
Project Description
Create a command line program that simulates a basic billing system for a supermarket. The user can input items purchased (e.g., butter, eggs, etc), their prices, and quantities. The app will calculate the total bill, apply any applicable discounts, and display an itemized bill summary. This project focuses on loops, dictionaries, and arithmetic calculations.
Learning Benefits
You will practice working with loops, dictionaries, and arithmetic calculations while simulating a real-world application. This project helps improve your problem-solving skills and teaches you how to handle user input and display formatted output.
