Python Code to Make a Simple Calculator
In this example you will learn to create a simple calculator that can add, subtract, multiply or divide depending upon the input from the user.
Example: Simple Calculator by Using Functions
# Program make a simple calculator
# This function adds two numbers
def add(x, y):
return x + y
# This function subtracts two numbers
def subtract(x, y):
return x - y
# This function multiplies two numbers
def multiply(x, y):
return x * y
# This function divides two numbers
def divide(x, y):
return x / y
print("Select operation.")
print("1.Add")
print("2.Subtract")
print("3.Multiply")
print("4.Divide")
while True:
# Take input from the user
choice = input("Enter choice(1/2/3/4): ")
# Check if choice is one of the four options
if choice in ('1', '2', '3', '4'):
num1 = float(input("Enter first number: "))
num2 = float(input("Enter second number: "))
if choice == '1':
print(num1, "+", num2, "=", add(num1, num2))
elif choice == '2':
print(num1, "-", num2, "=", subtract(num1, num2))
elif choice == '3':
print(num1, "*", num2, "=", multiply(num1, num2))
elif choice == '4':
print(num1, "/", num2, "=", divide(num1, num2))
break
else:
print("Invalid Input")
Output
Select operation. 1.Add 2.Subtract 3.Multiply 4.Divide Enter choice(1/2/3/4): 3 Enter first number: 15 Enter second number: 14 15.0 * 14.0 = 210.0
In this program, we ask the user to choose an operation. Options 1, 2, 3, and 4 are valid. If any other input is given, Invalid Input is displayed and the loop continues until a valid option is selected.
Two numbers are taken and an if...elif...else
branching is used to execute a particular section. User-defined functions add()
, subtract()
, multiply()
and divide()
evaluate respective operations and display the output.
