Can someone please help me with this...

Hey,

I just started working on Python today. There is a competition which is being hosted by the school. I am practicing and have an error coming up on this code. i am trying to make a module where it asks for the cost of your hard drive and then the size and tells the price/gb. it isn't working. i think the problem has to do with the division operator. can someone suggest a solution. this is the code:

print "Welcome to Jaap's Hard Drive Calculator"
price = raw_input ("What is the price of the hard drive you intend to purchase? Please do not type GB or TB at the end.")
model = raw_input ("What is the size of the hard drive you intend to purchase? Please do not add the currency symbol.")
print "The cost/GB is", price/model
print "Thank you for using Jaap's services"

You must cast the inputed strings to floats:

Code

print "Welcome to Jaap's Hard Drive Calculator"
price = float(raw_input ("What is the price of the hard drive you intend to purchase? Please do not type GB or TB at the end."))
model = float(raw_input ("What is the size of the hard drive you intend to purchase? Please do not add the currency symbol."))
print "The cost/GB is", price/model
print "Thank you for using Jaap's services"
