Create a tuple with double digit values from input in Python

I'm trying to create a tuple from input where the values are two digits.

tup = tuple(input("enter a tuple"))

but when I enter something like 10 11, I get this:

('1', '0', ' ', '1', '1')

The intended result is this:

(10, 11)

I'm sure I'm adding in an additional step here, but this works.

Val= "11 12"
Val=Val.split(" ")
Val=[int(x) for x in Val]
tuple(Val)

or if you want to one line it:

tuple([int(x) for x in raw_input("enter a tuple:").split(" ")])

Edit You could also just use the input function if you're using python 2.7.

Tup=input("enter tuple:")
>(11,12,13)
print(Tup)
  (11, 12, 13)

But I believe that executing user input for a program is considered risky and unacceptable.

Try this:

tup = tuple(int(n) for n in input("Enter a tuple: ").split(" "))

This will work for integers of any number of characters as well as negative integers.
