SyntaxError: unexpected EOF while parsing

I don't know why I keep getting the error. Please help

`a, b = map(int, input("Enter numbers").split(" "))` ? – mrtpk Aug 28 '18 at 06:23 — mrtpk, Aug 28 '18 at 06:23

You need to use => input.split(" ").

If you use split(""), which will take the consecutive 2 items like , "a" and " " as per this case. So, 3 is the extra input you are giving.

Hope it helps!

I use the code => a, b = map(int, input("").split(" ")). But I keep getting the same error. – 배준협 Aug 28 '18 at 06:31
I have tried with online compiler and its working. Can you please check whether there are extra piece of code somewhere in yours – Somesh Aug 28 '18 at 07:02
Don't pass anything in `split()` – mrtpk Aug 28 '18 at 09:46
