Get string length

[RedSkeleton007]

To start off, I just want to print the length of a hard coded string as follows:

1 2 3 4 5 6

#!/usr/bin/env python3 #NestedIfStuff.py   password = "dink"   print(str(password.len()))

But I get the error: AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'len'

What's wrong?

you would do it this way

1	print(len(password))

I need to convert user string input to a number. My statement on line 7 isn't working:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16

import itertools import sys    alphaNum = 'abc' password = 'cab' guessLength = input("How many characters would you like to guess up to: ") int(guessLength)      for x in range(0, guessLength+1):     guessList = [''.join(i) for i in itertools.product(alphaNum, repeat = x)]     for guess in guessList:         if (password == guess):             print("the password is " + password)             sys.exit()         print(guess)

Error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "E:/Python/Python36-32/SamsPrograms/FinalPasswordGuesser.py", line 10, in <module>
    for x in range(0, guessLength+1):
TypeError: Can't convert 'int' object to str implicitly

What do I need to do?

You have forgotten to assign the integer in line 7:

1	guessLength = int(guessLength)
