Remember to:

• Ask your Python question, not if you can ask or if there's an expert who can help.
• Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
• Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.

Formatting code on Discord

Here's how to format Python code on Discord:

```py
print('Hello world!')
```

These are backticks, not quotes. Check this out if you can't find the backtick key.

For long code samples, you can use our pastebin.

overall = input("What is your Overall Mark?:  ")
print(overall)

if (overall == 1-100):
    average = input("What was your Midterm Average?  ")
    print(average)
else:
    print("Your Overall has to be between 0 - 100 ")

thank you i was trying to remember the format, this is my code.

[main adder]

if (overall == 1-100):
You dont need the brackets and the symbol - doesn't help you either. Its best you use < and > to check.

[mossy orchid]

okay so i put down ```py
if overall = <=100 :

[main adder]

!e

input_list = [-5,0,5,60,100,150,350]
for i in input_list:
    if 0 < i <= 100:
        print(i)
    else:
        print(f"Invalid number used {i}")

:white_check_mark: Your 3.12 eval job has completed with return code 0.

001 | Invalid number used -5
002 | Invalid number used 0
003 | 5
004 | 60
005 | 100
006 | Invalid number used 150
007 | Invalid number used 350

[mossy orchid]

okay im not going to lie im still kind of confused ive only been coding for about two weeks.

[main adder]

What are you confused about?

[mossy orchid]

im assuming this is what woud work for the input to only be betewwn 0-100 but i dont understand how this works

[main adder]

if 0 < i <= 100: do you understand what this line does?

[mossy orchid]

no i do not.

[main adder]

But you got it done yourself here?

[mossy orchid]

oh okay so the "i" is basically my "overall" and you added " 0 < " so it cant be below 100

[main adder]

Ahhh you got confused the the forloop. Best i can explain is that i can be anything that you want it to be. Like the overall varible.

[mossy orchid]

TypeError: '<' not supported between instances of 'int' and 'str'

i keep getting this error though.

[main adder]

You cant compare intergers and strings.

When you get an input, the input will be a string by default you can change it to a interger by doing
overall = int(input("What is your Overall Mark?: ")). However this will throw a error is the user inputs anything that cant be converted to a number.

[mossy orchid]

yeah when i changes it to that the same error message pops up even when i input a number

[main adder]

Show screenshot of the code and the error message

[mossy orchid]

ohhh i missed the extra ")" at the end thats why

it works now.

[main adder]

Thats great.

Do you have any other questions?

[mossy orchid]

that was my only problem, thank you very much.

[main adder]
