Python 3 Tutorial: 9 - Input

This tutorial covers the basics of the input function, and shows how to use the int function as well.

The color comes from your IDE (the one used here is IDLE, the one that came with Python) and helps you easily see what kind of words you've typed. For example, orange words are key words that mean something special to Python, like for; and; in; and from.

The print command should be purple and the string should be green.

Homeschooled, using these to learn. You're really great!

You could use eval(input("How tall are you in meters?")). The eval() function evaluates the number as a number (whether it is a float or integer) and will solve your problem.

@nanopavan Actually, raw_input is no longer used in the newer versions of python (3.0 and higher). As of Python 3.0, only input is used. I believe if you try to use raw_input, it will give you an error.

Does the color on the text have anything special to do cuz my print is orange..

Hey i have a quick question. I am trying to do this but say i want height in meters so i write
h= (int("input (how tall are you in meters?" )
when user then ansers 1.8 or 1, 8 i just get an error (i gues because "." and ", " arent numbers?

13. Write a program that will ask the user for two numbers a then divide one by the other. The number of times one goes into another and the remainder should be displayed. For example, If 3 and 2 were entered: 3/2 = 1 remainder 1.

[NJLampFilms]

Doesnt fucking work, when you type "Input()" and then enter something, it just gives a big traceback error
