PYTHON GHETTO CALCULATOR

Question

can someone tell me what’s wrong here? I need to make “Process” be a a string stored value by the users. I tried taking the str() function out but still won’t run properly.

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "ForLoop.py", line 3, in <module>
PROCESS=str(input("ENTER WHAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO DO (+,-,*,/,**,%):"))
File "<string>", line 1
*
^
SyntaxError: unexpected EOF while parsing

Answer 1

you do not need the str() function anymore cz the PROCESS itself as a raw input is already a string. I guess that’s why u got errors

Answer 2

I take it off and still get this:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "ForLoop.py", line 3, in <module>
PROCESS=input("ENTER WHAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO DO (+,-,*,/,**,%):")
File "<string>", line 1
*
^
SyntaxError: unexpected EOF while parsing

Answer 3

are u sure this code resulted the error on line 1. i’ve just run it and it works TOTALLY fine. just check it. i think it’s bcz your previous input. if anything further, i won’t mind giving a hand

Answer 4

ENTERED_NUM= int(input("THIS IS QUICK MATHS..enter a number:"))

PROCESS=input("ENTER WHAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO DO (+,-,*,/,**,%):")

ENTERED_NUM2=int(input("enter second number:"))

if PROCESS=="+":
print(ENTERED_NUM+ ENTERED_NUM2)
elif PROCESS=="-":
print(ENTERED_NUM-ENTERED_NUM2)
elif PROCESS=="/":
print(ENTERED_NUM/ENTERED_NUM2)
elif PROCESS=="*":
print(ENTERED_NUM* ENTERED_NUM2)
elif PRCOESS=="**":
print(ENTERED_NUM** ENTERED_NUM2)
elif PROCESS=="%":
print(ENTERED_NUM% ENTERED_NUM2)
