8 Input Function

We can store the values which are provided as an input from user inside a variable.
We can implement this with the help of python built-in function input().
input() function takes input from user and always stores the provided value in the form of string.
We can use type casting after getting the input from user to convert the input data into required form.
The function accepts message parameter to inform user which value to be provided as an input.

📜 Syntax:

variable_name = input("message for user")

Scenario 1: Get two numbers as input from the user print their addition.

💻 Example:

num1=input("please enter 1st number:")
num2=input("please enter 2nd number:")

# Change their datatypes to int
num1=int(num1)
num2=int(num2)
print("There sum is:")
print(num1+num2)

✅ Output:

please enter 1st number:30
please enter 2nd number:20
There sum is:
50

We can change the datatype while accepting the input inside variable as well.

💻 Example 1:

num1=int(input("please enter number:"))
print(type(num1))

✅ Output:

<class 'int'>

💻 Example 2:

num1=input("please enter number:")
print(type(num1))

✅ Output:

<class 'str'>
