if statement after input wont compare to number

Question

Im trying to write a program that asks every user for their age, if they are less than 16 years old it should remove them from the list.

Problem is i keep getting the following error - "TypeError: '<' not supported between instances of 'str' and 'int'"

Even though i made sure the input is an "int", my "if" statement will not let me compare it to a numerical value (if i < 16).

Any help would be appreciated, all of the solutions i found online say i must use the "int" before the input, but i already did.

list_names = ['Daniel', 'Samuel', 'Ruth', 'David']

for i in list_names:
    int(input('What is your age? '))

    if i < 16:
        list_names.remove(i)
    print(list_names)

Answer 1

list_names = ['Daniel', 'Samuel', 'Ruth', 'David']

for i in list_names:
    age = int(input('What is your age? '))

    if age < 16:
        list_names.remove(i)
    print(list_names)

you are comparing string with an integer. i is a string and 16 is an integer. So, your if condition does not work.

Also, you should save the input in a variable if you want to compare it. Just writing int(input("...")) will ask for input, but you won't be able to use it anywhere. That is why I saved it in age
