Purpose?

Question

What’s a scenario where you would want or need to type int(“2”) + int(“3”) instead of simply 2 + 3?

Answer 1

When you receive user input. It is a string when you get it.

Let's say, a simple addition calculator.

num1 = int(input("Enter a number"))
num2 = int(input("Enter another number"))
print(num1+num2)

Answer 2
