Input in Python
Input allows users to enter data into a program.
Python uses the input() function to take input from the user.
💡 Data entered using
input() is always treated as a string.
Basic Input Example
name = input("Enter your name: ")
print("Hello", name)Input with Numbers
To take numeric input, we convert the input using int() or float().
age = int(input("Enter your age: "))
print("You are", age, "years old")
❌ Forgetting type conversion causes logical errors
Practice
- Ask the user for their city
- Add two numbers entered by the user
