How to check if input is float or int?

Question

I want to make a simple converter, to print either hexadecimal number of float or integer. My code is:

number = input(\"Please input your number...... \\n\")         


        

Answer 1

input returns a string, you are trying to check whether it looks like a float or an integer:

number = input("Enter your number? ")
try:
    number = int(number)
    print("Entered number is, ", number,"and it's hexadecimal number is:", hex(number))
except ValueError:
    try:
        number = float(number)
        print("Entered number is float and it's hexadecimal number is:", float.hex(number)) 
    except ValueError:
        print("You entered an invalid number")
