If you specify base=0, it will accept binary, octal, and hexadecimal numbers in addition to decimal. All this is explained in the link I gave you. > years = int('y') # store for calculationValueError: invalid > literal for int() with base 10: 'y'What is meant by "invalid literal"? '42' is a valid literal for int(). 'y' is not. What value did you expect int('y') to give you? Perhaps you have a variable named 'y' containing a string? If so, you might want something like int(y) or int(f{'y'}), but int('y') passes the literal string 'y', which has nothing to do with a variable of that name. > I'm trying to convert srt to int, Do you mean "str to int"? > and I didn't know I needed to specify the base. You don't. If you don't specify the base, it defaults to 10. > Plus I haven't read anything that I need to specify > the base for the int().

Isaiah 43:2 You can add a signature to all your messages if you like, but it will be very helpful if you introduce it with a line consisting of "-- ", as I've done here. It would also be very helpful if you introduce line breaks into your message, particularly before and after any included code.
