Today we are going to learn input function and typecasting in Python. If I write equals input with the text, enter your name and then print a. And after running the code, it asks for a name. Then type a name, press enter. Look at prints it in the terminal. Simple, but there is one important thing you should know about it. When we write a program to add two numbers and run it with inputs one and two, we expect the output to be three. But it prints twelve. It happens because the input function reads everything as a string. We need to confirm using type function. For the correct result, we have to typecast the inputs. If we wrap input inside an integer to convert it into an integer. The same code gives us the correct output, which is three. Remember to only use typecast values that can actually be converted.

Ideas in this flowchart

  • Learning Input Function and Typecasting in Python
  • Input Function
  • Typecasting
  • Example of Input Function
  • Code: a = input('Enter your name')
  • Output: Prints entered name
  • Issue with Input Function
  • Example: Adding Numbers
  • Code: Input 1 and 2
  • Output: Prints 12
  • Reason: Input as String
  • Correcting with Typecasting
  • Use int() to Convert Input
  • Correct Output: 3
  • Caution
  • Only Typecast Convertible Values
  • Engagement
