Answer 1

As I mentioned in the comment, input() returns the entire line. You must split it by spaces to get ['3','2'] and then convert those to integers.

One way to do that would be

line = input().split()
a,b = int(line[0]), int(line[1])

Or if you're into one liners,

a,b = map(int, input().split())

Answer 2

Your code might have been formatted improperly and the int() isnt needed. I fixed your code for you :)

#Gather integers
a = int(input())
b = int(input())

sum = a + b #Create sum of 2 numbers

print(sum) #Print that sum
