Replace budget with str(budget) in print("Your budget is " + budget + "$.").

The error says:

TypeError: can only concatenate str (not "int") to str

You can't join together a string and budget which is an integer.

Change:

print("Your budget is " + budget + "$.")

To:

print("Your budget is " + str(budget) + "$.")

def main():

print("~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~")
print("Welcome to the Movie Store!")
print("~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~")
budget = int(input("What is your budget?"))
print("Your budget is " + budget + "$.")
sale = (200 - budget)

if(budget < 200):
    print("print("If you spend $" + sale + "you'll qualify for a gift!")
else:
    print("You qualify for a free gift!")

main()

You are getting this error because you didn't convert the budget from int to string before printing. As we can only concatenate a string to a string .

They are many ways like:

1》Convert budget to str before printing:

   print("Your budget is " + str(budget) + "$.")

2》Use formatting in str:

 print("Your budget is  {} $" .format(budget))

3》Use f-string :

 print(f"Your budget is {budget} $.")

You have used print here 2times and here you also have to convert sale to string before printing using any of the above mentioned ways:

if(budget < 200):
    print("print("If you spend $" + sale + "you'll qualify for a gift!")
else:
    print("You qualify for a free gift!")

Hope you found this solution useful ...!!

print("~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~")
print("Welcome to the Movie Store!")
print("~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~")
budget = input("What is your budget?")
print("Your budget is " + budget + "$.")
budget = int(budget)
sale = (200 - budget)

if(budget < 200):
    print("If you spend")
else:
    print("You qualify for a free gift!")

You don't need to switch budget to a variable right away since you are going to print it right after the input( You can't print strings with integer's). So i changed it to convert to an integer right before the program needs it. Hope this Helps You!

An alternative to concatenating is to use f-strings. I found these examples in the documentation to be quite useful.

print(f"Your budget is {budget}$.")

Here, the budget variable can be of type str, int, or any other data type that can be casted into a string.

The benefit of using f-strings is that you don't have to worry about type conversions at all. Python will do them for you. You can even use results returned from function calls as well.

# Sample code
print(f"This length of this list is {len(lst)}.")

Use this:

print("Your budget is ",budget,"$.")

The error message provides some useful information. It will even tell you exactly where the error happened. In this case, it tells you there is a TypeError on line 5:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Users\Chris\Desktop\deleteme\deleteme.py", line 5, in <module>
    print("Your budget is " + budget + "$.")
TypeError: must be str, not int

If you scroll to line 5, you'll see that it is:

print("Your budget is " + budget + "$.")

So, the problem is that you are trying to add the types str + int + str. That doesn't work. You'll have to convert the int to a string. Think of it like str + str(int) + str, or in your code:

print("Your budget is " + str(budget) + "$.")

Alternatively, the way I would do it is by using 'f-strings'. You just need to put an f before the first quotation mark, and your variables into curly braces ({}). This way, you won't even need to use str():

print(f"Your budget is {budget} $.")

You can use formated string in python: You can use strng + int + strng this is not a method to print in python you can print by formated string like : print(f"Your budget is {budget }$.")
