I want the user to put two numbers and put the answer and the software to print correct if he had the right answer but it keeps printing wrong

x = input("num1: ")
y = input("num2: ")
z = input ("num1 + num2: ")

results = float(x) + float(y)
if z == results:
    print("correct")
else :
    print("wrong")
user-input python

input returns str type.
float(x) and float(y) are for converting str to float.
So you need same thing for z.

Comparing str and float always results False(in this example, '3.0' != 3.0).

x = input("num1: ")
y = input("num2: ")
z = float(input("num1 + num2: "))

results = float(x) + float(y)
if z == results:
    print("correct")
else:
    print("wrong")

output:

num1: 1
num2: 2
num1 + num2: 3
correct
