Correct Language for creating a calculation tool - bradkernohan - Nov-28-2020

I am looking to create a small piece of software that will allow numerical data entry and then perform some calculations from that data.

Is Python the right language to start with?

I've done some beginner tutorials, just don't want to get too far down th rabbit hole if this wont get me what I need.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Most any computer programming Language ever written will do that, python included.

This tutorial is exceptional (In my opinion):
