Your code should be:

z = raw_input("Is your age %d" %(var,) )

With raw_input, %var should also lie within the parentheses. i.e:

z = raw_input("Is your age %d" % var)

I guess the cleanest way is to use format:

z = raw_input("Is your age {0}?".format(var))

I think this is the best way since it is standart in Python 3 and can be used under Python 3 and Python 2. – User Jun 15 '14 at 17:49
