income=float(input("enter the annual income: ")
if income<85528:
 tax=(income-556.02)*0.18
else:
 tax=(income-85528)*0.32+14839.02
tax=round(tax,0)
print("the tax is: ", tax, "thalers")

Why does it keep giving an error on line 2?

  • Line 2 is blank, so you must mean line 3, yeah? Commented Sep 5, 2024 at 18:53

You have a lacking parenthesis in the 1st line: ")". It can be fixed by:

income = float(input("enter the annual income: "))

Complete program:

income = float(input("enter the annual income: "))
if income < 85528:
 tax = (income - 556.02) * 0.18
else:
 tax = (income - 85528) * 0.32 + 14839.02
tax = round(tax, 0)
print("the tax is: ", tax, "thalers")

Returns:

enter the annual income: 435
the tax is: -22.0 thalers
