In Python, the input()
function is used to get input from the user via the keyboard. The input()
function reads a line of text from the user and returns it as a string.
Here's a simple example:
pythonname = input("What's your name? ")
print("Hello, " + name + "!")
In this example, we're using the input()
function to prompt the user to enter their name. The user's input is stored in the name
variable. Then we're using the print()
function to print a message that includes the user's name.
When you run this code, you'll see something like this:
rustWhat's your name? Alice
Hello, Alice!
Note that the input()
function takes an optional string argument that is used as the prompt for the user. In this example, we're using the prompt "What's your name? "
.
Also note that the input()
function always returns a string, so if you need to use the user's input as a number, you'll need to convert it using functions like int()
or float()
.
