hello, I am a college student in my first year of computer programming,
I was wondering if you could look at my code to see whats wrong with it.

# Write a program to calculate the sales tax at the rate of 4% and 2%
respectively
# Thereafter compute the total sales tax (sum of the state tax and the
county tax)
# and the total purchase amount (sum of the purchase amount and the
total sales tax).
# Finally, display the amount of purchase, the state sales tax, the
county sales tax,
#the total sales tax and the total amount of the sale.
#Variable Declarations
#Real purchaseAmount, stateSalesTax, countySalesTax, totalSalesTax,
totalPurchaseAmount
#Constant Real SALES_TAX = 0.4, COUNTY_TAX = 0.02
#Display "Input Purchase Amount: $"
#input the hours worked and hourly wage wage
SALES_TAX = 0.4
COUNTY_TAX = 0.02
print("----------------------------------------------------------")
print(("This program calculates the sales tax at the rate of 4% and 2%
respectively, as well sum of the state tax"))
print("----------------------------------------------------------")
purchaseAmount = input("Please input the Purchase Amount: $")
#Calculate the State Sales Tax, County Sales Tax, Total Sales Tax, Total
Purchase Amount
purchaseAmount = int(purchaseAmount)
stateSalesTax = int(purchaseAmount * SALES_TAX)
countySalesTax = int(purchaseAmount * COUNTY_TAX)
totalSalesTax = int(stateSalesTax + countySalesTax)
totalPurchaseAmount = int(purchaseAmount + totalSalesTax)
#Output the results
Display ("Purchase Amount:$") purchaseAmount
Display ("The State Sales Tax $") SALES_TAX
Display ("The County Sales Tax: $") COUNTY_TAX
Display ("The Total Sales Tax: $") totalSalesTax
Display ("The Total Amount of the Purchase: $") totalPurchaseAmount
