The provided code is a python code named calculator.py, which functions as a simple command-line calculator. It allows the user to perform basic arithmetic operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division) on two numbers.
-
The code starts with a series of print statements that create a simple text-based menu for the calculator, displaying the available operations (ADD, SUBTRACT, DIVIDE, MULTIPLY).
-
The user is prompted to select an operation by entering a corresponding number.
-
The user's input is stored in the variable
OPERATION
using theinput()
function. -
The code uses a series of
if-elif-else
statements to determine which operation to perform based on the user's input. -
For each operation (1 to 4), the code prompts the user to enter two numbers (
num1
andnum2
). -
The code performs the selected arithmetic operation (addition, subtraction, division, or multiplication) and prints the result.
-
After displaying the result, the code prompts the user if they want to perform another operation. The response is stored in the variable
again_operation
. -
If the user entered an invalid operation, an error message is displayed, and the program thanks the user for using the calculator.
This code essentially implements a basic calculator in the console, allowing users to perform simple arithmetic operations interactively.
