Simply Calc v2

[tomcoogs]

Hi Everyone!

I am new to this but I have seen calculators demo but I am trying to make an easier one to cheese for any symbol.
I am trying not to use Boolean!


Why is this not working:

num1 = input("Enter a number: ")
symbol = input("input symbol: ")
num2 = input("Enter a number: ")

result = float(num1) + symbol + float(num2)

print(result)

Many Thanks

Tom

use an fstring:
result = f"{float(num1)} {symbol} {float(num2)}"

I think he wants the result displayed, rather than the entered text.

eval() is risky, and should only be used if you can control its use. That said, this works:

num1 = input("Enter a number: ")
symbol = input("input symbol: ")
num2 = input("Enter a number: ")
st = num1+symbol+num2
print(eval(st))

Output:
Enter a number: 4
input symbol: *
Enter a number: 3
