Solution: Movie Night

Understand how to write a Python program that asks for user input, converts it to a number, and uses conditional logic to decide if the user can watch a movie based on their age. This lesson helps you practice basic input handling, type conversion, and if-else statements.

We'll cover the following...

This program checks a user’s age and decides whether they’re old enough to watch a movie.

  • input() asks the user to enter their age.

  • int() converts the input (which is text) into a number so Python can compare it.

  • The if statement checks a condition:

    • If the user’s age is 13 or older (age >= 13), Python runs the first print() statement.

    • Otherwise, it runs the else part and prints the message for users under 13.

age = int(input("How old are you? "))

if age >= 13:
    print("Enjoy the movie!")
else:
    print("Sorry, you're too young.")
