Newbie needs help

[dvejsa]

Hello guys,

Im just learning Pyhton and doing a code in Replit.. I think Im doing ok so far but Im stuck on a thing that maybe some one here might help me out with?

So im doing this code where a carpurchaser asks someone what type of car/model/year and miles it has.. and they answer like this:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13

print("What car and modell?") car = input()   print("What year is the car?") year = input ()   print("Okey good, how many miles does it got?") miles = input()     print(car + " " +  " " + year+ " " + mile)   print("Oh okey, you got a ’car’ of ’model’-modell, and its from ’year’, but has not driven more than ’mile’, sounds intresting!")

the last print does not show when i run the program.. its just says "car" "model" "year".. not what car/year/model/mile i type in the program.. how come? :P

and also.. is there a way to make so it says "miles" after you put the miles numbers in the code?

I hope you guys get what im trying to explain that I need help with ;P

best regards!

1 2	miles = input() print(car + " " + " " + year+ " " + mile)    #Are they "miles" or "mile"?

Try using f strings
print(f"{car} {year} {miles} miles")

1 2	miles = input() print(car + " " + " " + year+ " " + mile)    #Are they "miles" or "mile"?

Try using f strings
print(f"{car} {year} {miles} miles")

Thanks bro, it worked! :D

now I only need the "answer part" to work aswell :P

There are many ways to format output in python. Below are f"strings (preferred) and .format() (older and being replaced by f"strings. Hopefully this is enough to show how you can format your output string.
print(f"{car} {year} {mile}")
print(f"{} {} {}".format(car, year, mile))

Before you start using year or mile as numbers, you'll need to convert them to numbers. For that you'll be using int() and float(). You should also investigate try and except. Inevitably you will enter something that is not a number, and your program will raise a "ValueError" and crash.

1	print(f"Oh okey, you got a {car} of {model}-modell, and its from {year’} but has not driven more than {miles} miles, sounds intresting!")

But you have no input for model

Wow, thanks that is what I was looking for!
