Sometimes, when you write a Python program, you might want to check if the value of a variable is an integer.
You can check if the value of a variable is an integer by either using Python’s builtin type()
function by passing the variable as an argument, and then compare the result or using the isinstance()
function by passing the two arguments: the variable, and the int
class.
How to use the type()
Function to Check if the Value of a Variable is an Integer in Python
Here’s a code example on how to check if the value of a variable is an integer using Python’s builtin type()
:
level = 10
type(level) == int #True
How to use the isinstance()
Function to Check if the Value of a Variable is an Integer in Python
Here’s a code example on how to check if the value of a variable is an integer using Python’s builtin isinstance()
:
level = 10
isinstance(age, int) #True
Wrap Off
That’s a candid example of how you can check if the value of a variable is an integer by either using Python’s builtin type()
function or builtin isinstance()
function.
