    starting with python help

    I am using a tutorial to get used to python by makeing simple games.

    In the tutorial it tells me to

    Code:
    28. if guess == number:
    29. guessesTaken = str(guessesTaken)
    30. print('Good job, ' + myName + '! You guessed my
    number in ' + guessesTaken + ' guesses!')
    Now myName is a str object but guessesTaken is an int.

    When I run the code in the tutorial (above) I get an error

    line 31, in <module>
    print('Good job, ' + PlayerName + '! You guessed my number in ' + guessesTaken + ' guesses!')
    TypeError: cannot concatenate 'str' and 'int' objects

    my name for things is slightly different than the tutorial but neither work.

    How to I get it to display int objects?

    sorry i just worked it out. I forgot to

    guessTaken = str(guessTaken)

    or something similar

    had a few typo's in there now.

    Wow I am suddenly enjoying learning programming!!!

    Thats one way of doing it, the other way is to use string manipulation which you should cover later.

    This is where the code would look like:

    Code:
    28. if guess == number:
    29. guessesTaken = str(guessesTaken)
    30. print('Good job, ' + myName + '! You guessed my
    number in ' + '%d' guessesTaken + ' guesses!')
