Python bool() Function in Linux

Introduction

In Python, the input() function is used so that the user can input data. Whatever you enter, this function will convert it to a string. Even if you enter a number, the function will convert it to a string.

The following article is a detailed guide on how to use the input() function in Python as we go through the section below.

Example

print ("What is your name?")

x = input()

print("You are " + x + ", aren't you?")

For example, I will enter the name Python. Output:

What is your name?

You are Python, aren’t you?

example

Example 1: Basic input() function

print ("Enter your mother name:")

x = input()

print("What a beautiful name!")

Output:

Enter your mother name:

What a beautiful name!

Example 2: Plus 1. Because the function will convert the input to a string. So if you want to input as int then use int()

print("Enter a number")

x = int(input())

plus = x + 1

print(plus)

Output:

Enter a number: 11

12

Example 3: Parity check program

def check(x):

return (bool(x % 2 == 0))

print("Enter a number")

x = int(input())

if (check(x)):

print("It is an even number")

else:

print("It is an odd number")

Output:

Enter a number: 8

It is an even number
