Shortest python A + B program with input and output

Question

Some of you may say that I am wasting my time, but this task does not give me peace for more than 500 days. It is required to write a program in Python 3.x that takes two numbers as input and displays their sum. The numbers are given in the following format:

a b

Some example test cases:

100 500 -> 600
3 4     -> 7

The length of the code is calculated with the formula max(code length without spaces or tabs or newlines, code length / 4). I know only 2 solutions, each of them has a length of 36 characters:

print(sum(map(int, input().split())))

and:

print(eval(input().replace(' ', '+')))

Also I know, that the exists solution with length of 34 symbols. You can check it on this website.

Answer 1

Given the right hint toward the solution in the comment to the same question asked on stackoverflow ( see here ), I have got it right down to 34 and without any limitations on the input number or other tricks necessary:

print(eval(input().replace(*' +')))

Here a short summary of currently known different solutions:

print(eval(input().replace(' ','+'))) # 36

print(sum(map(int,input().split()))) # 36

print(eval(input().replace(*' +'))) # 34

print(sum(map(int,input()[::2]))) # 33 (limited to numbers between 0 and 9)

Maybe it could be considered cheating, but maybe not. At least there is no rule for this defined yet so let's include it into the collection of possible solutions:

import f;f.f() # 13

Required for this solution to work is a script f.py available in a search directory for modules of Python with following content:

def f():
    print(sum(map(int,input().split())))
