Overview  

The purpose of this assignment is to demonstrate knowledge of advanced datatypes and the use of lists and dictionaries to store, retrieve process data.

Scenario

The company has approved the proof of concept provided in your week three assignment but wants to change some of the data as well as the processing.  In addition to the data input, you will need to include the “from date” and “to date” for the hours worked.  Detailed information will not be displayed until all the data has been entered, followed by the total summary for the payroll.   

  • All the coding will be maintained from your week three assignment and modified as needed to meet the new requirements.

Instructions  

Complete the following in Practice Labs:

  1. Create a new function that will input and return the from date and to date for the hours worked and is called inside the loop.  This should be the first function called.  Dates must be in the format mm/dd/yyyy.
  2. Store the from date, to date, employee name, total hours, hourly rate and income tax rate in a list object. Note: multiple list objects may be needed to complete this functionality
