how do I make a variable string, instead of an integer?

Question

I keep getting a TypeError saying I need a string, not and integer. this is what I have tried.

cash_1 = int{cash_1} + 1

this is the code line it is saying the TypeError is on.

cash_1 += 1

int is a function - you need to call it with regular parentheses, not curly braces:

cash_1 = int(cash_1) + 1
# Here -----^------^

You're using the wrong punctuation; you want parentheses () to call functions such as int, not {} (which are used e.g. for sets and dictionaries).

cash_1 = int(cash_1) + 1
