Just to be sure:

The input of the program (var x) is always a positive decimal number.

Eg:

  • 3.14 --> 3
  • 6.5 --> 7
  • 123.98 --> 124
  • 2.0 --> 2

but not integers such as:

  • 2
  • 7678

(meaning that I will always find the decimal point)

Am I right?

Doesn't matter, I figured that if I add .0 to a number it will convert it to a decimal numer

x=1

x=x+0.0

print x

will show:

1.0

Exactly. That was covered in lectures too.

Yes, since it says it's always a decimal number, it should always have a decimal portion. The decimal portion might be 0. In that case, it would just be 2.0.

You're right, just remember that spaces are not allowed (I'm sure you do remember that and what you've typed is just for more readability:) and also there could be a case like " 27. ", which is also decimal, in fact.
