Read input of integers in Python

0 votes

This code doesn't take Integer input. Whatever I found on the web says to use raw_input().

play = True
while play:
    x = input("Enter a number: ")
    y = input("Enter a number: ")
    print(x + y)
    print(x - y)
    print(x * y)
    print(x / y)
    print(x % y)
    if input("Play again? ") == "no":
        play = False

In the upper version of Python 3.x, raw_input was renamed to input and the Python 2.x input was removed.

This means that, just like raw_input, input in Python 3.x always returns a string object.

As the default inputs are String you need to explicitly make those inputs into integers by putting them in int:

x = int(input("Enter a number: "))
y = int(input("Enter a number: "))

Also, Python does not need/use semicolons to end lines. So, having them doesn't do anything positive.
