This 3D printer script snippet is intended to set the nozzle temperature to 230°C for ABS filament, but it has an error:
nozzle_temp = "230C"
if nozzle_temp > 220:
    print("Nozzle temperature set for ABS")
else:
    print("Temperature too low")

What is the error and how to fix it?
ANo error; code runs fine
BError: Missing colon after if; fix by adding colon
CError: Print statement syntax; fix by adding parentheses
DError: Comparing string with int; fix by removing "C" and converting to int
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Identify data type mismatch

    nozzle_temp is a string "230C", but compared to integer 220, causing a type error.
  2. Step 2: Fix by converting string to int

    Remove "C" and convert to integer: nozzle_temp = int("230") to allow numeric comparison.
  3. Final Answer:

    Error: Comparing string with int; fix by removing "C" and converting to int -> Option D
  4. Quick Check:

    String vs int comparison causes error [OK]
Quick Trick: Compare numbers, not strings with units [OK]
Common Mistakes:
  • Ignoring data type mismatch
  • Assuming string with number compares correctly
  • Missing conversion before comparison
