### Price After Discount
`if / else if / else` chooses a branch from boolean conditions. Comparisons such as `<`, `>=`, `===` and logical operators `&&`, `||`, `!` combine the exact rules that decide which output is valid.
NEED HELP?
Hints
+
['Translate every case from the statement into a boolean condition before writing branches.', 'Separate input parsing, result computation, and output into distinct steps so errors are easier to spot.']
ANSWER
Solution
+
const fs = require('fs');
const input = fs.readFileSync(0, 'utf8').trimEnd();
let [price, discount] = input.trim().split(/\s+/).filter(Boolean).map(Number);
let result = (((price) * (100 - discount)) / 100);
console.log(Number.isInteger(result) ? result.toFixed(1) : result);
