TypeError Due to Operations Between Different Data Types

A TypeError typically occurs when you try to perform arithmetic operations on incompatible data types, such as numbers and strings.

For example, adding a string (apple) and a number (ten), as shown below, will raise a TypeError.

TypeError Example
ten = 10 apple = "apple" result = apple + ten # TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for +: 'int' and 'str'

How to Handle TypeError

To prevent a TypeError, ensure that data types match or are appropriately converted before performing operations.

Data Type Conversion Example
number = 10 text = "apple" result = str(number) + text # '10apple'
