concatinating strings to int... or something :)

[WIdgeteye]

(Simple test code below)

What I am trying to do is print;

you win $50

what I am getting is;

you win $ 50 with the space between the $ and 50.

I tried; print arf + barf
but it tells me you can't concat strings to numbers.
I have read the tutorial (and probably missed the answer)
could someone please tell me how to get rid of that
infernal space?

Thanks.





mon = int(raw_input("get number"))

barf = 2 * mon

arf = "you win $"

print arf, barf

print arf + str( barf )



print "%s%d" % (arf,barf)
