The code that I'm struggling with.

CodePudding user response：

input() returns a string. So in order to calculate distanceTraveled you have to cast it to int or float. If you can input a value like 5.5 seconds, you'll have to use float.

distanceTraveled = float(num1) * num2

CodePudding user response：

The input() function treats any user input as a string. And so when you multiply by an integer like 1480, it prints the user input 1480 times.

You should type cast the input - type casting is changing one datatype into another datatype providing that the operation is possible with the given data.

this is done like this:

num1 = int(input("Enter number"))
