I\'m new to Python. How do I add variables with integer values together?
balance = 1000
deposit = 50
balance + deposit
print \"Balance: \" + str(balance)
Doing this:
balance + deposit
Does the addition and returns the result (1050). However, that result isn't stored anywhere. You need to assign it to a variable:
total = balance + deposit
Or, if you want to increment balance
instead of using a new variable, you can use the += operator:
balance += deposit
This is equivalent to doing:
balance = balance + deposit
you need to use the assignment operator: balance = balance + deposit OR balance += deposit
You need to assign the sum to a variable before printing.
balance = 1000
deposit = 50
total = balance + deposit
print "Balance: " + str(total)
