  Review of the Material

  Input in Python:

  • For integers use: int(input("user prompt "))
  • For floats use: float(input("user prompt "))
  • For strings use: input("user prompt ") and when inputing the string you must enclose it in double or single quotes
  • For formatted output use function format.
    • For example, to print only 2 decimal digits of the number 1232.566777 use the following statement:

      print(format(1232.566777, '.2f'))

    • For example, to print only 4 decimal digits of the number 1232.566777 use the following statement:

      print(format(1232.566777, '.4f'))
