Dear Tutor, In earlier days I programmed a lot with Quick Basic in DOS. Now I retiered, I hoped to have Python as a platform. So I installed it and saw a lot of simmularity with Basic.
I hope you can help me with the following, which should not be difficult, but I cannot find the solution. When I type this: >>> a=2 >>> d=a+4 >>> print(d) 6 I got the correct answer. When I try this to run it in a Module: a=input('-->' ) print(a) d=a+4 print(d) I get this as a result: input test.py -->2 2 Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Users\Gebruiker\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36\Lib\idlelib\input test.py", line 3, in <module> d=a+4 TypeError: must be str, not int >>> I receive this message. I tried to use float(), but nothing works. What am I doing wrong ? Thanks in advance !
