Answer 1

Hi.
You will have to split the user's input. Assuming the values are whitespace separated use the following
a = input ().split(" ")

Assigning the result of the print() command to a variable does not help much in your case. Remove the print() in the lines where you assign the variables and do the conversion to float there, like

x = float(a[1])

This should do the trick.

a = list(map(float, input().split()))
p, r, n = a
