I’m learning Python from the very beginning, and it’s been great returning to the basics. But as the early challenges are simple, I’m adding a little flavor to my solutions, to get in a little more practice with the syntax. This is my solution to a challenge where I needed to add two numbers and then multiply them by a third number.

add_then_multiply.py

def add_then_multiply():
	num1 = int(input('Pick a number and enter it: '))
	print('Yes, good.')
	num2 = int(input('Now, enter another number: '))
	num1 += num2
	final_num = num1 * 3
	if final_num == 69:
		print(f'You dirty rascal you, your number is {final_num}')
	else:
		print(f'The total is {final_num}')
