Answer 1

@Ikechika Dickson
You had problems with your indention and some syntax errors and also some incomplete exception handling...
I have edited your code to the bare minimum and simple to understand, please note the indention.
Now its working perfectly. Below is the code.

#======== START OF CODE ========

first_number=int(input("Please enter first number: "))
print(first_number)
second_number=int(input("Please enter second number: "))
print(second_number)
operator = input("Choose an operation (+) or (-):")

if(operator[0]=="+"):
result = first_number + second_number
elif(operator[0]=="-"):
result = first_number - second_number

print(operator[0])
print("Your answer is" , result)

#======== END OF CODE ========

Let me know if you want me to add exception handling

Answer 2

The error message should be pretty clear - unexpected indent. Python uses indentation to distinguish structeres (e.g. where if starts and ends). Your indents are all messed up.
