3.3.7 Age CodeHS Answers

The most common answer is:

user_age = input(“Enter your age:”)
user_age = int(user_age)
print (“You will need this many candles for your birthday cake:”
print (user_age + 1)

This code is meant to take the user’s age as input, convert it to an integer, and then print a message indicating how many candles they’ll need for their next birthday cake, which is their age plus one.

There’s a small syntax issue with the print statement and the use of quotation marks.

Here’s the corrected version of your code, ensuring it uses standard ASCII quotation marks and corrects the print statement syntax:

user_age = input("Enter your age: ")
user_age = int(user_age)
print("You will need this many candles for your birthday cake:", user_age + 1)

This corrected code will work as intended, first asking the user to enter their age, and then printing a message that tells the user how many candles they’ll need for their next birthday.
