how does this code not failing on a number with zero's??

Because int(0) evaluates to False, so it just skips it. i.e. if int(x) == True: n* = int(x). int(0) is False. You can test it just by typing bool(int(0)) in your Python shell.

I see that it works) but how it's working not clear to me too. As far I understand for this example the Python considers that "0" is not an integer? And as a result int(0)=False not put in the equation.
