Create a Python program that checks your savings against the prices of different laptops and informs you which one you can afford to buy.

savings = float(input("Enter your total savings: "))

# Define a dictionary with laptop models and their prices
laptops = {
    "Basic Laptop": 500,
    "Gaming Laptop": 1200,
    "Ultrabook": 1000,
    "Workstation": 1500,
    "High-End Gaming Laptop": 2000
}

# Check which laptops the user can afford
affordable_laptops = [model for model, price in laptops.items() if savings >= price]

# Display results
if affordable_laptops:
    print("With your savings, you can afford the following laptops:")
    for laptop in affordable_laptops:
        print(f"- {laptop}")
else:
    print("Sorry, you don't have enough savings for any of the listed laptops.")


Sorry, you don't have enough savings for any of the listed laptops.

%%js
// Prompt the user to enter their savings amount
const savings = parseFloat(prompt("Enter your total savings: "));

const laptops = {
    "Basic Laptop": 500,
    "Gaming Laptop": 1200,
    "Ultrabook": 1000,
    "Workstation": 1500,
    "High-End Gaming Laptop": 2000
};

// Check which laptops the user can afford
let affordableLaptops = [];
for (const [model, price] of Object.entries(laptops)) {
    if (savings >= price) {
        affordableLaptops.push(model);
    }
}

// Display results
if (affordableLaptops.length > 0) {
    console.log("With your savings, you can afford the following laptops:");
    affordableLaptops.forEach(laptop => console.log(`- ${laptop}`));
} else {
    console.log("Sorry, you don't have enough savings for any of the listed laptops.");
