Steel Grade Program in Python
A certain grade of steel is graded according to the following conditions:
- Hardness must be greater than 50
- Carbon content must be less than 0.7
- Tensile strength must be greater than 5600
The grades are as follows:
- Grade is 10 if all three conditions are met
- Grade is 9 if conditions (i) and (ii) are met
- Grade is 8 if conditions (ii) and (iii) are met
- Grade is 7 if conditions (i) and (iii) are met
- Grade is 6 if only one condition is met
- Grade is 5 if none of the conditions are met
Write a program, which will require the user to give values of hardness, carbon content and tensile strength of the steel under consideration and output the grade of the steel.
This program is a basic implementation of a program that assigns a grade to a type of steel based on its hardness, carbon content, and tensile strength.
- The program then uses a series of "if" statements to check if the input values meet certain criteria. If the hardness is greater than 50, the variable hs_f is set to 1. If the carbon content is less than 0.7, the variable cc_f is set to 1. If the tensile strength is greater than 5600, the variable ts_f is set to 1.
- Next, the program uses a series of "elif" statements to assign a grade to the steel based on the values of the hs_f, cc_f, and ts_f variables. If none of the input values have failed the criteria check, the steel is assigned a grade of 5.
- If any one of the input values have failed the criteria check, the steel is assigned a grade of 6. If the hardness and tensile strength have failed the criteria check, the steel is assigned a grade of 7.
- If the carbon content and tensile strength have failed the criteria check, the steel is assigned a grade of 8. If the hardness and carbon content have failed the criteria check, the steel is assigned a grade of 9.
- If all the input values have failed the criteria check, the steel is assigned a grade of 10.
- The program then prints the assigned grade to the console using the "print" function.
- This program will work for any input values of hardness, carbon content, and tensile strength and assigns the grade to the steel according to the condition mentioned in the program.
