Which of the following is the correct way to validate that an input is a positive integer in Python?
Aif isinstance(input_value, int) and input_value > 0:
Bif type(input_value) == 'int' and input_value > 0:
Cif input_value.isdigit() and input_value > 0:
Dif input_value > 0:
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Check type correctly

    Use isinstance(input_value, int) to check if input is an integer.
  2. Step 2: Check positivity

    Ensure the integer is greater than zero with input_value > 0.
  3. Final Answer:

    if isinstance(input_value, int) and input_value > 0: -> Option A
  4. Quick Check:

    Use isinstance and > 0 for positive integer check [OK]
Quick Trick: Use isinstance() to check type, then compare value [OK]
Common Mistakes:
  • Using type() == 'int' (wrong syntax)
  • Calling isdigit() on non-string input
  • Skipping type check before comparison
