Data Type Conversion - int,float 03:05 Converting data of one type to data of another type is called Type Conversion. Python defines various type conversion functions. 1. int(x, base): This function converts x to an integer of the specified base, the default x value is 0. If the base is not specified, it defaults to 10. The syntax of int() function is: int(x=0, base=10) Consider the following program to understand the working of int() function. s = "0011" # A binary string. print(int(s, 2)) # Result: 3 print(int(s)) # Result: 11 If "0011" is considered with base 2, then its integer value will be 3, whereas if "0011" is considered with base 10, then its integer value will be 11. 2. float(x): This function is used to convert any data type to a floating point number. The float() function returns a floating point number from a number or a string. The syntax of float() function is: float(x) where x is a number or string that needs to be converted to a floating point number. If it's a string, the string should contain decimal points The below table gives information about the Usage of the float() functions and their respective outputs with the explanation. print(float(23.4)) 23.4 The parameter is already a float number. So no conversion happens print(float(9)) 9.0 The integer 9 is converted to float 9.0 print(float("32")) 32.0 The string "32" is converted to float 32.0 print(float("-42.48")) -42.48 The string "-42.48" is converted into float -42.48 print(float(" -24.45 ")) -24.45 Leading and trailing spaces are trimmed and converted to float value. print(float("InF")) inf inf represents the upper bound value of float. print(float("InFiNiTy")) inf The case of text does not matter. Words used : inf or infinity print(float("nan")) nan nan represents not a number. print(float("NaN")) nan The case of text does not matter. print(float("CodeTantra")) ValueError Cannot convert string "CodeTantra" to float. Write a simple program to convert given input values to floating point values. Sample Test Cases Test case 1 Enter·a·value:·7 Enter·b·value:·8 7.0⏎ 8.0⏎

# Take input from user
a = input("Enter a value: ")
b = input("Enter b value: ")

# Convert the input to float
a = float(a)
b = float(b)

# Print the converted values
print(a)
print(b)
