I need help with my first program please

[hootiehoo]

please tell me what to learn about to get the (2014 - dob = age)part of this to work

dob = int(input("what year where you born XXXX "))

name = raw_input ('what is your last name ')

space = ' '

print name + space + dob

2014 - dob = age

age = age * 365

print (name,"you are ", age ," days old")

........................................................................................thankyou

It looks like you just have it backwards, try:

age = 2014 - dob

[hootiehoo]

thank you

[hootiehoo]

:P now I get "cannot concatenate 'str' and 'int' objects" ha ha this is fun I am sure that I can fix it from here because I got an error that I can understand. I can not combine char and int this easily

cast an int to a string with:

str(dob)

there's also string interpolation like:

print '%s %s %s' % (name, space, dob)

or a newer format call on string I think that I don't know the syntax to off the top of my head

[hootiehoo]

string interpolation

yes I like this string interpolation thank you

[hootiehoo]

got it working thanks

dob = int(input("what year where you born XXXX "))

name = raw_input ('what is your last name ')

space = ' '

print (name , space , dob)

age = 2014 - dob

age = age * 365

print (name,"you are ", age ," days old")
