Test Program For Holly | Python Fiddle

# Explain the purpose of the program to the user.
# Prompt user for description of three items.
# Prompt user for the quantity of each item.
# Prompt user for the price of each item.
# Prompt user for the weight (in lbs.) of each item.
# Multiply the price of each item by its quantity.
# Combine the prices of all items for the subtotal.
# Multiply weight of each item type by its quantity.
# Calculate shipping and handling: combine weight of all items and multiply by $0.25; add $5 handling.
# Calculate tax: combine subtotal and shipping & handling costs; tax (multiply by) 8.5% ($0.085).
# Calculate total: combine subtotal, S&H, and tax.
# Print items purchased.
# Print subtotal.
# Print shipping and handling costs.
# Print tax.
# Print total costs.
