Please tell me why. Thank you in advance.

Answer 1

The variable a is declared as a string at the beginning. You should turn it into an integer using the int () function after the input.

Answer 2

just convert input to int before comraing , try this
a =input("")
if int(a) > 10:
print("you are awesome")
