I have problems with my code. Why answer is always wrong? What am I doing wrong?

Question

from random import randint
def calc():
x = randint(1,100)
y = randint(1,100)
z = x + y
print(x)
print("+")
print(y)
d = input("Input answer:")
if d == z:
print("Yes!")
calc()
else:
print("Wrong!")
calc()
calc

Answer 1

When you ask for an input, and store it into variable 'd', 'd' is a string. You should convert it to an integer before evaluating whether it's equal to 'z'.

Answer 2

Alvaro is right, for your if statement you could use
if int(d) == z:

cast the string to an int

Answer 3

Thanks! I thought it will not work with "if"

Answer 4

Or... you could write d=int(input("Input answer:"))
Or even better:
try:
d=int(input("Input answer:"))
catch ValueError:
# ask for input again (maybe in a while loop), or assign a default value
# this prevents an error if the user does not input a number
#... rest of the code

Answer 5

maybe you could just not worry about type conversion : use str(z) instead of int(d), because it's never going to fail unless something terrible happens

Answer 6

Really... But this is a new problem...
