Splitting two integers into separate variables

Question

Is it possible to split an input of two integers separated by a space such as '1 2' to be split into two separate variables? I have tried

ratio = input()
a,b = ratio.split(' ')

but it returns an error message of 'SyntaxError: unexpected EOF while parsing'.

Try using raw_input() instead of input()

It can't be a raw_input() because the numbers need to be integers – T. Green May 28 '17 at 15:34
You can write it as `a,b = map(int, ratio.split(' '))` – Oluwafemi Sule May 28 '17 at 15:39
