Or check the following code example-

discount = 20

price = input("Enter price of the product: ")

calculated_price = float(price) - discount

print(calculated_price)

Run the program, and enter 100-

Enter price of the product: 100

Now run the program again and enter some string as input. Here we have entered “some string here”-

Enter price of the product: some string here

  File "bigboxexample.py", line 5, in <module>
    calculated_price = float(price) - discount
                       ^^^^^^^^^^^^
