[Tutor] User Input with Multiple Lines

So I am working with input that is pasted from a PDF file, and I was wondering if there is any way I can do so without the program terminating abruptly because of the newlines. I know that multiple lines of input can be achieved via a loop with string concatenation, but this is not what I'm looking

Hi all, I'm pretty new to programming in general and figured I'd try out python. I'm working on a small program to add users to a sqlite db. The problem I'm having it dealing with the user input, I'd like to be able to repeat the function to get the input if the user doesn't accept it. here's

[Tutor] User Input List and Sort

Every example of a list that I've seen involves working with, sorting, etc pre-populated list. How can I create a list where the user inputs a string of numbers and then sorts it? I've tried: print "Input list separated by commas" lst=[raw_input()] print lst print len(lst) lst.sort() print lst

Re: [Tutor] User input

raw_input reads in the value as a string, so you need to convert it at some point to a number. You can either do this at the point where you read the value in, or when you do the calculation/print. To convert it at the input stage (probably the most logical), add float() such as mpg = float(raw_i

Hi there, Can anyone tell me how I'm having trouble executing this piece of code: mpg = raw_input (" Enter your mileage:")distance = raw_input ("Enter your distance:")galon_price = raw_input ("Enter you cost per gallon:")make = "Honda"model = "Accord"##print make, model, "mileage is", mpg, "miles
