python TypeError: can’t multiply sequence by non-int of type ‘float’

 

This error shows up when there is a type mismatch.

Example:

When you execute below code you will get this error-
 

>> hrs = input(“Enter Hours:”)
Enter Hours:40
>>> rate =float( input(“Enter Rate”))
enter rate: 10
>>> pay = hrs*rate
TypeError: can’t multiply sequence by non-int of type ‘float’

 

Solution for this:

hrs = float(input(“Enter Hours:”))
rate = float(input(“enter rate”))
pay = hrs*rate
print(‘Pay:’ , pay)

when trying to access python from command line- we might get an error when we use – ‘python’. Use ‘py’ instead of ‘python’

if you are still getting error then check “environment variables”. You need to add python installed folder path at environment variables.
if your python install path is : C:\Programs\Python\Python37-32 then go to control panel, systems–> Advanced system settings –> Advanced tab –> Environment variables –> System Variables –> Path edit –> at variable name enter your python installation path with “;” i.e. “;C:\Programs\Python\Python37-32;” . hit ok.
