Re: [Tutor] Reformatting phone number

[Robert Berman]

Not directly as in C, but, for example, if you have s='3' and you want s used as an integer, you can say s=int(s) and it is an integer. Conversely, if you have a question about the type, you could also say type(s) which, depending, will return, 'str','int', etc. Hope this helps a bit.

In php the distinction was made by the fact that there were no non-numerical characters in a string. I don't know enough Python to know if this is the case. Can I declare a variable type in Python as in C?
