Question

So I have the line of code in python that I keep getting an error on.
Line of code:

input("This is your", movecounter, "move, type the number you want to move north")

Line 1 was just import random

Error:

File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "<stdin>", line 12, in berries
TypeError: input expected at most 1 arguments, got 3

How do I fix this? I don’t see any args???

Answer 1

At the least, you want to replace the commas with pluses and call str on movecounter (which I’m guessing is an integer).

input("This is your " + str(movecounter) + 
    " move, type the number you want to move north")

Arguments are separated by commas, so you were in fact giving input three arguments.

A more pythonic way of doing it is using str.format:

input("This is your {0:d} move, type the number you want to move north".format(
    movecounter))

You could also use the old-style % formatting operator as suggested by Kimvais, but I recommend learning and using str.format. It was made to supersede and improve upon the old % operator, which will eventually be deprecated. Many still use it though.
