Error with time.sleep

Question

I am new to Python3 and I have some problems. I've created a program like this:

x = input("Type a number: ") time.sleep(x)

Every time I use this I get an error. I don't know what I am doing wrong, could someone help me?

That's what I get: TypeError: an integer is required (got type str) — GrgBls, Jun 05 '17 at 13:54

Console input is of type str by default:

Type cast it to int.

x = int(input("Type a number: "))
time.sleep(x)
