Question

Why does this short python 3 program show type error online 23: TypeError: '<' not supported between instances of 'str' and 'int'. I don't have any strings!

def countdown(n):

if n <= 0:

print('Blastoff!')

else:

print(n)

countdown(n-1)

def countup(n):

if n >= 0:

print('Blastoff!')

else:

print(n)

countup(n+1)

number = input('Input a number...any number you can think of!n')

print(number)

int(number)

def counting(number):

if number < 0:

return countdown(n)

elif number >= 0:

return countup(n)

counting(number)
