TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for /: 'str' and 'str'

Question

name = input(\'Enter name here:\')
pyc = input(\'enter pyc :\')
tpy = input(\'enter tpy:\')
percent = (pyc / tpy) * 100;
print (percent)
input(\'press enter to quit\         


        

Answer 1

By turning them into integers instead:

percent = (int(pyc) / int(tpy)) * 100;

In python 3, the input() function returns a string. Always. This is a change from Python 2; the raw_input() function was renamed to input().
