Converting to Integers in Python

To convert a string to a number, you need to use the int function. Let's make two string variables numeric and get their sum:

pythontxt1 = '1'
txt2 = '2'

res = int(txt1) + int(txt2)

print(res) # the number 3

You can use the conversion command directly in the function call:

pythonprint(int('123')) # the number 123

pythontxt = '123'

pythontxt1 = '123'
txt2 = '456'
