Example

print ("What is your name?")

x = input()

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

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
