Using input command in python


Today i will show you that how can you use input command in python language, so we will write a simple program that will ask for any name or value and then print that name or value.

So here is our simple program.
a=input("Enter your name")
print(a)

as you can see we have declared "a" a variable that will ask for input "Enter your name" and then print command will print the variable "a". So anything we will type will be printed. As show in the picture below.

python program


But here you have to remember, if you are working with integers for some mathematical work than you have to declare input type as integer because then python will take input type as integer and not as word. As show in the picture below.

Python input
As you can see the syntax that how can we declaring the input type,,int, we have to write int then in brackets we have to enter the input command, int stands for integer and it will declare our input as integer, we have and in print command we have instructed to add a+b, so our program will add both entered values of a and b. Now see its output in the image below
Python output
This is the output that we will get of the above code, it is asking for two integers and then adding them  

If we don't declare our input as integer then python will not take our input as integer rather treat it as a word and will simply give us output 22 instead of 4 because our values will be treated as words and our command print(a+b) will just write them both of these values together instead of performing any arithmetic calculations. Kindly see the image below to get better understanding of it.

Features of python

  Python   is a dynamic, high-level, free open source, and interpreted programming language. It supports object-oriented programming as well as procedural-oriented programming. In Python, we don’t need to declare the type of variable because it is a dynamically typed language. For example, x = 10 Here, x can be anything such as String, int, etc. Features in Python There are many features in Python, some of which are discussed below – 1. Easy to code: Python is a high-level programming language. Python is very easy to learn language as compared to other languages like C, C#, Javascript, Java, etc. It is very easy to code in the python language and anybody can learn python basics in a few hours or days. It is also a developer-friendly language. 2. Free and Open Source: Python language is freely available on the official website and you can download it from the given download link below click on the  Download Python  keyword. Download Python Since it is open-source, this means that source

Conditional Statements

Conditional STATEMENTS Normally, the statements are executed sequentially as written in the program (i.e. Top to bottom). This is known as the normal flow of control. But sometimes the operational flow of control has to be altered depending upon a condition. The statements that allow to do so, are known as selection statements. Most important selection statement that python offers is the If statement. Selection statements are also known as conditional statements or decision statements. THE IF STATEMENT An if statement tests a particular condition; if the condition evaluates to true, a course of action is followed i.e. a statement of a set of statements is executed. If the condition is false the course of action is ignored. The syntax of if statement is as shown below: if (expression) : Statement THE ELIF STATEMENT In some cases the program requires you to write multiple if statements. This results in many condition evaluations thus slowing up the program. So to avoid th

Loop Statements

Loop STATEMENTS The Loop statements allow a set of instructions to be performed repeatedly until a certain condition is fulfilled. The iteration statements are also called loops or looping statements. THE FOR LOOP The for loop is the easiest to understand of the python loops. Syntax: For I in range(lowerlimit,upperlimit): Loop Body The program will run until I value becomes equal to upperlimit – 1. Example: For I in range(1,5): Print(“Hello”) This program will print Hello 4 times, ie from 1 to 4 (upper limit-1)  I value will start as 1 then loop body will get executed and I value will be incremented. This keeps on taking place until I ==upper limit-1 . After that the program comes out of loop body. THE WHILE LOOP The second loop available in python is the while loop. The while loop is an entry controlled loop. The syntax of a while loop is while (expression): Loop-body Where loop body keep on getting executed until the expression becomes false. When the expression becomes false, the pr
