I don't understand your question.

did you want to know why "string"+number is not allowed in print statements? because in python, you can only concatenate string to string, no implicit casting is done... so you either require: print("string"+str(number)) or: print("string",number,sep="") ... or others string formatting ways (old and new string formats)

@visph I don't think it is a good feature 💻

Théophile that would be perfect if best answer mark was not misused ^^ but it seems that OP don't like the "feature" explained in my answer and prefer finally set your answer as best :(

and marking best answer the one wich tell you he doesn't understand your question is not fair... mark none if you (really) want, but don't mark not useful answers ^^

I actually still don't understand his question : "why does print doesn't automatically get strongly typed when adding integers" It doesn't mean anything 🤷‍♂️ And I can't find the link with addition between strings and integers 🙄 But anyway, if the visph's answer answers his question, that's perfect.

visph I agree that it is not fair, since I couldn't provide an answer. I hope that he will mark your answer as best, or at least, as you said, "unmark" my answer. If he doesn't like the fact that python is strongly typed, he can try another langage 😁
