coding understanding help

[kapman2006]

Hallo

I'm very new to coding, so it's is maybe a silly question

I have of piece of code, i don't understand

My code her

def Halloworld(Mystring):
    print (Mystring)
    MyName = input ("what's your name?")
    MyVar = input ("Enter a Number")
    if(MyName == "kas" or MyVar != 0):
        print("kas is great")
    elif(MyName == "bob"):
        print("you are okay")
    else:
        print ("Hallo you")
    
Halloworld("Hallo function world")

When i run the code for eks.

Output:
Hallo function world
what's your name?bob
Enter a Number1
kas is great

when i enter the name bob and the number 1, i'ts says kas is great
shouldn't it's say bob, you are okay?? because the != operator it is false, and the == "kas" is false

MyVar is 1. So it is not equal to 0. So MyVar != 1 is true, not false.

Thanks for clearing that up for me ichabod801

MyVar is a str returned by input, it needs to be converted to a number by using int to make the comparison from one number to another instead of a str to a number.

Hi Yoriz

Try running this code:

print('1' == 1)
print(1 == 1)
print(int('1') == 1)
