Presently I am doing this
print 'Enter source'
source = tuple(sys.stdin.readline())
print 'Enter target'
target = tuple(sys.stdin.readline())
but source and target become string tuples in this case with a \n at the end

A:
tuple(int(x.strip()) for x in raw_input().split(','))

How should the user give input now.I tried 4,0...it doesn't work

Works fine here:`$ python -c "print tuple(int(x.strip()) for x in raw_input().split(','))"``4,0``(4, 0)`

I get the output-Enter source0,4Enter target3,2('0', '4')('3', '2')

Ah, I modified my answer slightly after. Compare what you have with what I wrote.

Works like a charm

`sys.stdin.readline()` does have the advantage of working across python2 and python3. In python3 `raw_input` is renamed to `input`

A:
If you still want the user to be prompted twice etc.
print 'Enter source'
source = sys.stdin.readline().strip() #strip removes the \n
print 'Enter target'
target = sys.stdin.readline().strip()
myTuple = tuple([int(source), int(target)])
This is probably less pythonic, but more didactic...

Sorry, the desired output is unclear. At any rate, the string.strip() and the int() should allow you to get exactly what you need, be it two tuples of a single integer each, or one tuple with the source and target values.

A:
Turns out that int does a pretty good job of stripping whitespace, so there is no need to use strip
tuple(map(int,raw_input().split(',')))
For example:
>>> tuple(map(int,"3,4".split(',')))
(3, 4)
>>> tuple(map(int," 1 , 2 ".split(',')))
(1, 2)
