Nead help with my calculator program- getting syntax error

@buran The script won‘t start, it just says ‚„Syntax error“ at the „:“ after the first „+“. I also got syntax errors on the first „s“ if I used the „def“ thing for the second part of the script and then put it in the line under what is currently line 30 and so on. I used this script both in Python 3.6 (MacOS) and 3.7 (LinuxMint), and in both I got the same error. Maybe someone of you could find the problem by trying out this script themselves.
