I am trying to add the total pounds that will be shipped. I keep getting an error of unknown format code 'f' for object of type 'str' when I try to float the pounds. and when I dont float it it gives me a total weight of <function pounds at 0x00000000032B92CB> when it exicutes. here is the code I have.
def pounds(): h_book=weight('Hardback',2.1) p_book=weight('Paperback',1.3) print('Your total weight of book(s) at',pounds) return pounds def weight(desc,weight): print('How many',desc,'books do you want at',weight,'pounds do you want?') num=int(input()) pounds=float(num*weight) -- Amanda Colley
