so I need a program that checks if a variable is integer and it's not float data.
I tried this:
var = 2.5
if var is int :
print(var)
else :
pass
but this didn't work. can you help me on this? thanks.

you can use simply the isinstance check
if isinstance(tocheck,int):
print("is an int!")
elif isinstance(tocheck,float):
print("is a float")
else:
print("is not int and is not float!")
you could also use the type function but it doesn't check for subclasses so it's not recommended but provide anyways:
if type(x)==int:
print("x is int")
elif type(x)==float:
print("x is float")
else:
print("x is neither float or int")
here are some useful links

Just use isinstance() function:
if isinstance(var, int):
...
else:
...

you can use the type method
https://www.programiz.com/python-programming/methods/built-in/type
print(type(var))
or
var = 2.5
if type(var) is int :
print(var)
else :
pass

1) type is not a method, is a function. 2) type(x) is not reccomended since it doesn't support subclass checks
you can user type() here.
for example :
var = 2.5
if type(var) is int :
print(var)
else :
pass

Your code appears to be an exact copy of the code in the question, without formatting.
else: passdoes nothing, so remove it.
