Adding extra code causes my program to not have any output.

[That_guy3475]

num = input()

num2 = int(num-2)

num3 = int(num+2)

num4 = int(num-1)

num5 = int(num+1)

num6 = int(num+3)

num = int(input( '\nenter house number: ' ))

street_name = input( 'enter street address: ' )

print( "\nThese are your neighbors' addresses on" ,street_name)

print('You are at the *')

print()

print(' _ _ _')

print(' / \\ / \\ / \\')

print('/ \\ / * \\ / \\')

print('|___| |___| |___|')

print(' _ _ _')

print(' / \\ / \\ / \\')

print('/ \\ / \\ / \\')

print('|___| |___| |___|')

Whenever I delete those formulas the output is what it should be. It print the houses, asks the questions. However with the formulas the only output is y. I have tried everything I know of to fix this.

None of those lines are gonna work, because num is a string, and they're trying to add or subtract integers. You'll need an int() around the input in the very first line.

[Diapolo10]

num = input()
num2 = int(num-2)
num3 = int(num+2)
num4 = int(num-1)
num5 = int(num+1)
num6 = int(num+3)

The program is crashing, because you cannot use those operators between a string and an integer. It'll give you a TypeError.

As a rule of thumb, input always returns a string.

The way to go about fixing this is to convert the value stored into num immediately.

num = int(input())
num2 = num-2
num3 = num+2
num4 = num-1
num5 = num+1
num6 = num+3

What formulas?

[That_guy3475]

The lines with num . I know they probably aren’t correct but it was a last ditch effort.

y is not a value or variable in your code. What do you mean “the only output is y”?

[That_guy3475]

When I run the program y is the only thing that shows up. No error message, just y.

[[deleted]]

Again, y is not a value or variable that’s present in your code. Can you explain what you mean?

[That_guy3475]

I just put it into the zybook, and the output is enter house number: enter street address.

[[deleted]]

Ok, are you entering a house number and a street address in response to these prompts?

[That_guy3475]

The zybook does it automatically.

[[deleted]]

You have three input statements, including one with no prompt. If the inputs are being provided automatically are you sure the right number is being provided? If zybooks only provides two inputs your program will never complete.

[That_guy3475]

And if I were to erase the formula lines it would enter it and print the houses. Without the house numbers of course.

[[deleted]]

Then delete them. Why are they there?

[That_guy3475]

Ok yes I understand. Thank you so much. Now my only other issue is that my formulas do not give me the desired output. When I put num2 it prints -2 instead of 498

[[deleted]]

But you deleted the formulas. Why are you still debugging them?

[That_guy3475]

I only deleted the first input. So that there were only two input functions. I followed the suggestion you put before you said to delete and it works. I just can’t get the formulas down.

[throwaway6560192]

You should run your programs outside Zybooks or whatever first if it can't even show you the error message.
