This is the code of home.html:

This code is in my views.py:

def home(request):
    return render(request, 'home.html', {'age':'27'})

This is the templates html home.html:

<td>
      {% if age > 25 %}
      <span>abc</span>
      {% elif age > 30 %}
      <span>def</span>
      {% elif age > 35 %}
      <span>ghi</span>
      {% else %}
      <span>others</span>
      {% endif %}
</td>

You know in the home.html, it will be others, not abc.

Convert it in Python: `return render(request, 'home.html', {'age': int('27')})` or something similar. – Klaus D. Aug 09 '17 at 10:37

It's not a "Python" templates library - it's **django**'s templates... – Jon Clements Aug 09 '17 at 10:38
python has more than one templating language — this looks like jinja2? – Eevee Aug 09 '17 at 10:38
Why not just pass it as an int in your views? – Moses Koledoye Aug 09 '17 at 10:39
You can coerce it AFAIK but it would be better to do it in the view. See this question: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4831306/need-to-convert-a-string-to-int-in-a-django-template – Jack Parkinson Aug 09 '17 at 10:43
