Just write the code like you wrote your explanation. I only had to
change one line:
stops = 24
if stops < 22:
# First 22 stops are worth 40c each.
stopPay = stops * 0.40
else:
# For more than 22, we get 8.80 plus 1.40 for each stop over 22.
stopPay = 8.80 + (stops-22) * 1.40
Another way to write it is to think about the stops beyond 22 as getting
a 1.00 bonus:
stopPay = stops * 0.40
if stops > 22:
stopPay += (stops-22) * 1.00
but I don't really think that's clearer.
