Hints

1. Calculate the success rate

• You need to translate the speed into a success rate, using the rules given in the instructions.
• The returned value is a floating-point number.
• Julia does not have the select/case syntax present in some other languages, but the Introduction discussed if-else syntax.

2. Calculate the production rate per hour

• The total theoretical production rate depends on the base production rate (a constant) and the speed.
• Return the actual production rate, which also depends on the success rate.

3. Calculate the number of working items produced per minute

• The hourly production rate was calculated in task 2.
• This task requires the rate per minute.
• Only complete, working cars are counted in this exercise, so you will need to remove part-complete cars from the count.
• The return value must be an integer (for example 7, not 7.0).
• The Numbers Concept already discussed ways to round values.
