Python - sum of two numbers program error

Question

I was just getting into Python programming. I wrote a simple program to calculate sum of two user-input numbers:

a,b = input(\"enter first number\"), input(\"ent         


        

Answer 1

I think it will be better if you use a try/except block, since you're trying to convert strings to integers

try:
    a,b = int(input("enter first number")), int(input("enter second number"))
    print("sum of given numbers is ", (a+b))
except ValueError as err:
    print("You did not enter numbers")
