Python multiple types in input

Question

Given that the undefined input() function can identify its type of data, why doesn't it work?

Answer 1

It is working fine, it is just that the first condition will never become True because input() takes input as string by default.

For example I input 42:
The program will take the input like this:
"42"

That is why the type is always str-data-type.

- - - - - - - -- - - - - - -
Or if what you're trying to do is to know if the input is a number.

Then you can use .isdigit() method.

"42".isdigit()
>> True

- - - - - - - - - - - - - -
You can also use try-except for this:

For example:

try:
int(value)
print(" int data-type ")
except ValueError:
print("Not int data type")
