the input of the user is always a string. Because of that you have to convert the input in integers, first before adding them.

This happens because of input() function take input as a string. In your case when you in put 2 it take is as "2" so "2"+"2"="22" So you have to convert it in to integer. for this CRIS also show an example and another way is take it directly in to integer. i.e. X = int(input("Input Number 1: "))
