Shopping Cart V1 - Single Item Total in Kotlin

Practice

Practice variables, arithmetic, and string concatenation by printing a tiny one-item receipt.

You start with:

        val item = "Coffee Mug"
        val price = 12
        val quantity = 3

Build:

Coffee Mug x3
Total: $36

Rules:

  • Compute total = price * quantity.
  • First line: "<item> x<quantity>" (e.g. "Coffee Mug x3").
  • Second line: "Total: $<total>".
  • Join the two lines with a newline "\n" into one string result, then print it with println(result).

Kotlin's + on a String and an Int converts the integer to text for you.

line1 + "\n" + line2 joins both lines into one string.

        val item = "Coffee Mug"
        val price = 12
        val quantity = 3

        val total = price * quantity
        val line1 = item + " x" + quantity
        val line2 = "Total: $" + total
        val result = line1 + "\n" + line2
        println(result)
