Code Challenge
Inspect a seat count, its textual input form, and an open flag. Print their type names without assuming a name proves the stored type.
Understand the idea
Write your own solution before opening the worked answer. Predict the output from the supplied values, then compare the actual result. Check both an ordinary case and the boundary described below; a passing example is more useful when you can explain why it passes.
Where to try it
Open this example with Try in playground. The code loads as editable text and does not run until you select Run. The first run downloads Python. Each run starts fresh; temporary files created by a script are not files on your PC.
Your task
Inspect a seat count, its textual input form, and an open flag. Print their type names without assuming a name proves the stored type.
Show the worked solution
for value in [7, "7", False]:
print(type(value).__name__)
Check the result
The types are int, str, and bool.
Test one more case
Add None and a list, then explain which represent missingness and a collection.
