Higher/lower game inputs

Question

having trouble figuring out why my input for z isn't working. i type in my inputs for lower and upper, and then don't get the chance to enter any input for z.

TypeError: input expected at most 1 argument, got 4

print("Welcome to the higher/lower game, Bella!\n")

x = int(input("Enter Lower Bound: "))
y = int(input("Enter Upper Bound: "))
z = int(input("Great, now guess a number between", x, "and", y))

Answer 1

It's because you have two strings and two variables inside your input for z.

Change the message to use string formatting so it is all in one piece:

'Great, now guess a number between {} and {}'.format(x, y)

Answer 2

for this, I would suggest either using .format or an f string

for .format

z = int(input('Great, now guess a number between {} and {}'.format(x, y)))

for an f string

z = int(input(f"Great, now guess a number between {x} and {y}"))

I would personally use f string because I find it much simpler
