How to read multiple values from the keyboard in a single line

#how to read multiple values from the keyboard in a single line

a,b=(int(x) for x in input("enter 2 numbers:").split())

print(a,b)

print("product =",a*b)

"""output:

enter 2 numbers:10 20

10 20

product = 200

1Q: Why do use split()?

Ans: There are two reasons:

(1) It leads to error if I give i/ps by giving spaces.

Ex: 10 20 #error

(2) It takes only 1 input, and stores into two inputs like 1 and 0

so we will get a result like the below:

1 0

product=0

so the split() function is mandatory when we want to read more than one i/p from the keyboard

What is split()?

The split() method splits a string into a list.

You can specify the separator, the default separator is any whitespace.

Example:

"2 4".split() #We have to call the split() function w.r.t string

['2', '4']

>>> "1, 2 3 Hyd, Vij Kurnul,Kadapa atp".split(',')

['1', ' 2 3 Hyd', ' Vij Kurnul', 'Kadapa atp']

>>>
