I = input (" enter a number")

Answer 1

The input function prompts the user for input, and returns what they enter as a "string" (with the contents automatically escaped).

I = input (" enter a number")
if I=="1":
print(" number is 1")
elif I== "2":
print(" number is 2")
else:
print(" number is 3")

# or take the input as an int

I = int(input(" enter a number"))
if I==1:
print(" number is 1")
elif I== 2:
print(" number is 2")
else:
print(" number is 3")

Answer 5

the return type of input() is string. Even if you enter a number it will be considered as string.
you can use any one of the following:
l=eval(input("enter a number"))
l=int(input("enter a number"))
