Python - player vs A.I game

Question

Can anyone tell me how I should go about writing a program that asks for variables from the user, then puts them inside of a random.randint() group for (a,b)

I have the part for the A.I. but I can't seem make any progress on the user part, because it tells me it can't convert a string into an integer and I'm confused on how I would write that. Anyone know a solution?

Answer 1

int("5")=5
Use int to convert strings to numbers.

Answer 2

Use exec(user_input), python will consider the input as a tuple (in your case (a,b) is a tuple).
EDIT:
a = exec(input(": "))
x = random.randint(x[0], x[1])

Answer 3

Aymane Boukrouh I get that part but, I'm trying to get the user inputted numbers to go into random.randint(a,b)'s a and b values, if that's possible.
