How can you take input of an integer from the user in Python?

Question

I used the command x = input()
And it let me assign the value of x. However,when i try to perform operations with x,such as x+= 3,it shows an error.What can I do?
Also,i want to perform arithmetic operations with x.I found it treats x as a string and not an integer.Please tell me how can i set x as an integer.

Answer 1

Please show your code. Did you use "input" as a variable name before?

Answer 2

Soham Roy It works for me, when I use this code:
x = int(input())
x += 3
print(x)

Answer 3

x = int(input())

Answer 4

it doesnt work.When i write x = int(input()) it shows a type error and says string object is not callable
