Type Converter

EasyPython Basics

Problem Statement

Convert values between different Python types.

Background

Python provides built-in functions for type conversion:

  • int(x) - convert to integer
  • float(x) - convert to float
  • str(x) - convert to string
  • bool(x) - convert to boolean

Your Task

Write a function convert_value(value, target_type) that converts the value to the specified type.

Input

  • value: Any Python value
  • target_type: String indicating target type ("int", "float", "str", "bool")

Output Format

Return the converted value, or "Error" if conversion fails.

Example:

Input:
value = "42", target_type = "int"
Output:
42
Reasoning:

int("42") converts the string "42" to integer 42

Constraints:

  • Handle conversion errors gracefully
  • target_type will be one of: "int", "float", "str", "bool"
