Python Area of a Rectangle
Let’s write a simple Python program to find the area of a rectangle and understand the mathematical formula for computing its area.
Area of the Rectangle
The mathematical formula is as follows:
area = length * breadth
To compute, we need two input values for the program. We need to read the length and breadth of the rectangle from the user.
Python Program
In this tutorial, we will use Python IDLE as the code editor to write and run the code. Launch the IDLE tool and write the code. to create a new script, choose File -> New File. Save the file with the .py file extension.
The program to calculate the area is as follows:
# Python program to find the area of a rectangle
length = float(input('Enter length := ')) # read length
breadth = float(input('Enter breadth := ')) # read breadth
area = length * breadth # computation
print('Area of the Rectangle := ', area) # print rectangle area
Program Output
Run the program to view the output.
Enter length := 23.56
Enter breadth := 12.72
Area of the Rectangle := 299.6832
