TypeError: 'int' object is not callable

old_income = 34000
new_income = 40000

old_income isn’t defined in your code, but we expected it to be int type

Hi @abhimanyu06165 ,

Sorry about that! It appears that you may have accidentally redefined a built-in function.

As a consequence, it will reset all the built-in functions to its default state. You can know more about this error and get to know how to fix it immediately by reading this post:

In this post, we will go through some examples of this error and how to debug it. Note Another way to get this error is by purposefully calling a variable name as if it’s a function name j…

Hope this helps.

Best,
