this is what I've done

JakenVeina•14mo ago

what in particular are you having trouble with here?

BabySidOP•14mo ago

I am not getting the desired output the output seems to be wrong

JakenVeina•14mo ago

yes and what is the problem what is the desired output

BabySidOP•14mo ago

I dunno why that's happening

JakenVeina•14mo ago

what is the output you're actually getting

BabySidOP•14mo ago

I should be getting these but

BabySidOP•14mo ago

I'm getting this instead

BabySidOP•14mo ago

what is it that I'm doin wrong

SinFluxx•14mo ago

You don't want to be multiplying your perPass / perFail by 100 before formatting them in the output

JakenVeina•14mo ago

per docs, the "P" format specifier already includes that logic

BabySidOP•14mo ago

I dont understand what you mean

JakenVeina•14mo ago

what part?
