Python – How to solve ‘int’ object is not iterable

we are going to learn about how to solve the TypeError: ‘int’ object is not iterable in Python.

The int object is not iterable error occurs, when we try to iterate over a integer value using for loop, python complier throws the error.

Here is an example:

price = 434for i in price:    print (i)

Output:

Traceback (most recent call last):  File "main.py", line 11, in <module>    for i in price:TypeError: 'int' object is not iterable

In the example above, we are trying to iterate over a integer, but integer objects are not iterable in Python.

To solve the error, convert the integer value to a string using str() function then iterate over it, because strings are iterable in Python.

Here is an example:

price = 434result = str(price)for i in result:    print (i)

Output:

434

Note: If you want convert the string to a integer back, you can use the int() function in Python.

We can also run the for loop number of times by passing the integer value to a range() function.

counter = 6for i in range(counter):    print(i)

Output:

012345

The range() function starts from 0 and ends before the passed number.

Conclusion

The “int” object is not a iterable error occurs, when we try to iterate over the integer value as a list or string, etc. To solve the error, convert the integer to string using str() function then iterate over it.
