When i develop python source code, i want to use python built-in function str() to conver a number variable to string type. But i meet below error Typeerror: ‘str’ Object Is Not Callable.
>>> x = 1.99 >>> >>> str(x) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> TypeError: 'str' object is not callable
This error confused me a lot for some time. But i finally fix it after google it. The reason for this error is because i had use a variable name str in the same python interpreter, and i had assign string value to that variable str. So the python interpreter treat str as a variable name other than built-in function name str(). So it throw out TypeError: ‘str’ object is not callable. Below is the full python source code.
>>> global str >>> # some times ago, i assign string 'hello' to str variable, so python interpreter think str is a string variable. >>> str = 'hello' >>> ...... ...... ...... >>> x= 1.99 # so when i invoke str() function, the interpreter think str is a string variable then error happened. >>> str(x) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> TypeError: 'str' object is not callable
Conclusion : Do not declare python variable name same with python built-in function name, keyword etc.
