Why my simple python code isn't working, what am I missing?

I started to learn python at replit a few weeks ago. The task is to write a program that will ask you to enter the name of your class, the maximum score possible, and your own score. Than print out how many % you got and your grade in float rounded at two decimals.

The code itself works fine. But I can't get the final result in % get to be rounded. Please help me finish it and point out where I was wrong in my code.

#intro
print("3[31m" + "-----------------------" + "3[0m")
print("Exam Grade Calculator📑")
print("3[31m" + "-----------------------" + "3[0m")
print()

#main
name_of_exam = input("What is the name of your exam?: ")
max_score = int(input("What was the maximum score?: "))
score = int(input("What was your score?: "))
print()

result = score / max_score
percent = round(result * 100, 2)

if percent >= 90:
  grade = "A+"
  print("You got", percent, "which is a", grade)

elif percent >= 80 and percent < 90:
  grade = "A-"
  print("You got", percent, "which is a", grade)

elif percent >= 70 and percent < 80:
  grade = "B"
  print("You got", percent, "which is a", grade)

elif percent >= 60 and percent < 70:
  grade = "C"
  print("You got", percent, "which is a", grade)

elif percent >= 50 and percent < 60:
  grade = "D"
  print("You got", percent, "which is a", grade)

else:
  grade = "F"
  print("You got", percent, "which is a", grade)

#outro
print()
print("3[31m" + "-----------------------" + "3[0m"

I've tried to change the calculation to be instead of this:

result = score / max_score
percent = round(result * 100, 2)

this:

result = score / max_score
percent = result * 100
round(percent, 2)

Than switch the round line (3rd) with percent calculation (2nd) just to see what it will do. Thank you for your help guys

Use format(percent, ".2f") + "%". You can specify as many as decimals you want to be printed by replacing 2 next to f.

Using an f-string to format the output percentage would be ideal.

Also, this kind of thing is well suited to being "table driven". Something like this:

GRADES = [
    (90, 'A+'),
    (80, 'A-'),
    (70, 'B'),
    (60, 'C'),
    (50, 'D'),
  ]
# intro
print("3[31m" + "-----------------------" + "3[0m")
print("Exam Grade Calculator📑")
print("3[31m" + "-----------------------" + "3[0m")
print()

# main
name_of_exam = input("What is the name of your exam?: ")
max_score = int(input("What was the maximum score?: "))
score = int(input("What was your score?: "))
print()

result = score / max_score
percent = round(result * 100, 2)

for p, g in GRADES:
    if percent > p:
        grade = g
        break
else:
  grade = 'F'

print(f'You got {percent:.2f}% which is a {grade}')
# outro
print()
print("3[31m" + "-----------------------" + "3[0m")

You do not need to use the round function. What you need to do is to change the way the variable is printed, not touching the variable itself. Also, in your question, you say that you need to print your actual grade as a floating point, but upon receiving the grade from user input, you turn it into an "int" which will remove all of the numbers that come after the decimal point.. so you should use the line below instead of the one in your code:

score = float(input("What was your score?: "))

and when printing the score, you could use this line instead of the one in your code:

  print("You got {}%, which is a {:.2f}".format(percent, score))

This will print your grade rounded up to two decimal points and the exact percentage, which you didn't specify if it should be a floating point number or an integer one (i.e. 28% vs 28.64%), but using the ":.2f" statement, you can format the percentage number so that it is rounded up to two decimal points to. too. good luck.
