Quiz #4 for October 13, 2020

Please use your Python system (IDLE or something else) to compute the following. Be prepared to show your work!

1. Write a program that reads two integers, and then prints a message saying whether the first is less than, equal to, or greater than the second.

   Answer:

   
   try:
       # read in the numbers
       val1 = int(input("First number> "))
       val2 = int(input("Second number> "))
   except:
       # oops – something went wrong
       print("Both numbers must be integers")
   else:
       # got the numbers; now compare
       if val1 < val2:
           print(val1, "is less than", val2)
       elif val1 > val2:
           print(val1, "is greater than", val2)
       else:
           print(val1, "and", val2, "are equal")
