[Tutor] Python Variable Addition

[viral shah]

Hi

I'm new in the learning of python

I want to make simple code for two variable addition

Please help me in the following code

x = 12
print x
y =20
print y
z = x+y
print 'Addition of above two numbers are : ' + int.z

when I run this same I got an error message :

AttributeError: type object 'int' has no attribute 'z'

Please help me to solve the same error

You should be doing this

"Addition of two numbers is" + str(x+y)

+ operator works on same datatypes and int being one of the built in objects in python does not have a method z

U shld use str() or int() to do type conversion

Welcome to Python tutor.

Normally, the print statement accepts a list of items, separated by
commas.  Each item is implicitly converted to a string, and the results
are sent to standard out, with a space between each item.

So the most straightforward way to print z would be something like:

    print 'Addition of above two numbers are:',  z

Now, sometimes you want to combine two strings yourself, so you might use:

    print 'Addition of above two numbers are:' + str(z)

Here we are using the str type as a conversion function.  Note that we
used parentheses, not the dot operator.  And notice that since print
only gets one item, it does not add a space.

There is no need for str() since print implicitly calls string to
convert objects to string format. Also the addition is not needed since
print takes a comma separated list of arguments. So it would normally be:

print 'Addition of above two numbers are : ', z

Using addition on strings is quite expensive and there are usually
better ways to do the same job.

This however is true(ish - int is a type not strictly an object, except
that everything in Python is an object, including types! :-) and it is
the source of the original error message.

Except that you'll get two spaces after the colon :)

OK thats true,
Try this:

print 'Addition of above two numbers are :', z

for one. :-)

But if the number of spaces is critical string formatting is better
still. And better than string addition.

True indeed, but which of the three versions of string formatting that
I'm aware of?
