Code error from Fundamentals of Python Programming van Richard L. Halterman

[menator01]

Not sure exactly what you're trying to do. input takes a users input and store it in variable x. Y does the same thing. If you are not entering a number value for x and y it will error.

If want a default value you could do something like this

x = input('Please enter an integer value: 2') or 2
y = input('Please enter another integer value: 17') or 17
num1 = int(x)
num2 = int(y)
print(num1, '+', num2, '=', num1 + num2)

If you're not wanting user input just store it in a variable.
