Convert Count from GetCount to Int without using Pandas

Ed_

Based on the code below how can I store the resultant value from GetCount in a numeric datatype? When I try the `int` function I  get the following error:

 

TypeError: int() argument must be a string, a bytes-like object or a number, not 'Result'

 

 

Code:

 

import arcpy
arcpy.env.workspace = "C:/data/data.gdb"
Count = arcpy.management.GetCount("roads")
Count = int(Count)

Never mind, the following fixes it by adding getOutput(0)

 

 

 

import arcpy
arcpy.env.workspace = "C:/data/data.gdb"
Count = int(arcpy.management.GetCount("roads").getOutput(0))
