► Python program to calculate area of a rectangle
Steps followed:
1. take length and breadth of a rectangle as input from user
2. validate user input by converting to float
3. calculate area of rectangle using formula l*b
4. print area of rectangle
#python program to calculate area of a rectangle
#take length and breadth of a rectangle as input from user
length=input("Enter length of rectangle: ")
breadth=input("Enter length of rectangle: ")
try:
length=float(length)
breadth=float(breadth)
#calculate area of rectangle
area = length * breadth
#print area of rectangle
print("---output---")
print("area of rectangle with length %0.2f and breadth %0.2f is %0.2f"%(length,breadth,area))
except:
print("---error---")
print("please enter a valid length")
Enter length of rectangle: 5
Enter length of rectangle: 20
---output---
area of rectangle with length 5.00 and breadth 20.00 is 100.00
Enter length of rectangle: s
Enter length of rectangle: fi
---error---
please enter a valid length
