If I am not wrong, it can be checked whether the user inputs a number or not.

# Check if numeric input
num = input('Please input a number: ')
if num.isnumeric():
num = int(num)
elif num.count('.') == 1 and num.replace('.', '').isnumeric():
num = float(num)
else:
print('Input numbers only!')
exit()
num = num * 5
print('The number you entered times 5 is {}'.format(num))
print('Program executed successfully.')

Thank you for your time in creating this video it was very helpful to me in my studies.

Very helpful vid. Thanks! Can you please explain to me the proper usage of the operators /, //, and %. I particularly need assistance with the usage of %. I understand / is common division, // rounds down, and % utilizes the remainder, unless divided by 2. However, I don't understand when the use of % is called for.

What if you have to take multiple int inputs at a time using whitespaces

Bro first time I will subsribe an tech channel that is yours

[DanielMejia]

is there a way we can loop through this?
try:
shapeSides = int(input("sides: "))
except:
print('please enter a number')
shapeSides = int(input("sides: "))
makes me think on a while loop, like while shapeSide != integer, but doesnt work like that, any idea?

[reinaldofanuel]

What if the condition is like this


target_column = ['Confirmed']
predictors =
ds[predictors] =
ds.describe().transpose()


TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for /: 'str' and 'str'


I just want to divide those values Thanks.

[Savant_AK]

sir what is the software you have used here?

[ajithhbm]

Thank u bro I will suffer thank u very much bro

[AbdirahiimYa]

it's still saying "could not convert string to float" at this line, in=float(input("Enter a number"))

[iuvgecu]

print “B”
I need help with the int, raw_input Please help me

I know this video is really old, but WHY does it assume it's a string? It doesn't make sense!
