Notice two differences: - Used the + operator to concatenate two strings: "foo" + "bar" == "foobar" - Converted the number from integer to string, you can't do: <int> + <str> directly, you have to either int(<str>) + <int> if you want to do an integer addition, or: str(<int>) + <str>, if you want string concatenation. You didn't use an operator, and «"string" variable "string"» is not valid python. -- Eduardo Alan Bustamante López -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
