TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for +: 'float' and 'str'

Question

Why is my code not working and what does this error mean?

import random
initial_val = str(10)
attr_c1_stre = (\"Character 1\'s Strength: \",str(random.randint(1,         


        

Answer 1

initial_val is a string:

initial_val = str(10)

You are trying to add it to a floating point value:

random.randint(1,12)/random.randint(1,4) + initial_val

initial_val should not be a string; leave it as an integer instead:

initial_val = 10
