title: Can I account for both in and float types
body: <p>So say I have some user input saved in a variable. Can I account for the user entering both an integer and a floating point number. for example</p>
  <pre><code>        gas = (input('How much gas did you have?'))
  </code></pre>
  <p>like above can whatever is in 'gas' be changed depending on another condition?
  THANKS</p>
