str object is not callable python
python, python-3.x, string
Solution
Assuming you're using Python 3,
print ("The area of your shape is: ", (a*b))
# ^
You forgot a comma.
Problem
I have tried looking around for an answer however the questions on here either seemed to advanced (I'm new to Python) or because of redefining what something meant which I couldn't catch in my script. Here is the code- ``` a = float(input("Enter the length(in inches)")) b = float(input("Enter the width(in inches)")) print () print ("The area of your shape is: "(a*b)) ``` I am getting the error TypeError: 'str' object is not callable. It is a simple script, I know, but it's a work in progress.
