4.6 Write a program to prompt the user for hours and rate per hour using raw_input to compute gross pay. Award time-and-a-half for the hourly rate for all hours worked above 40 hours. Put the logic to do the computation of time-and-a-half in a function called computepay() and use the function to do the computation. The function should return a value. Use 45 hours and a rate of 10.50 per hour to test the program (the pay should be 498.75). You should use raw_input to read a string and float() to convert the string to a number. Do not worry about error checking the user input unless you want to - you can assume the user types numbers properly.

python
def computepay(h,r):
    if h > 40:
        return (40*r)+(h-40)*(r*1.5)
    else:
        return h*r

hrs = raw_input("Enter Hours:")
rate = raw_input("Enter Rate:")

hrs = float(hrs)
rate = float(rate)

p = computepay(hrs, rate)
print(p)
