Show the Answer! 📢

Hi presenter! 🎤 A calculator isn't finished until it SHOWS the answer in a friendly way! 📢

Today we make our results look clear, fun, and easy to read!

answer = 42
print('The answer is', answer)

Save the Answer First 📦

It's neat to save the result in a box called answer first, then print it. 📦 This keeps our code tidy!

a = 7
b = 3
answer = a + b
print('Result:', answer)

Words and Numbers Together 🔗

We can mix words and numbers in one print using commas! 🔗 Python adds a space between them automatically.

a = 5
b = 2
print(a, 'plus', b, 'is', a + b)

A Full Sentence 📝

Let's make the answer a whole friendly sentence! It feels like the computer is talking to you. 📝

a = 8
b = 4
print('Hey! ' + str(a) + ' times ' + str(b) + ' equals ' + str(a * b))

str() Glues Text 🧴

To glue numbers into a sentence with +, we change them to text with str()! 🧴

Or just use commas — both work great!

score = 100
print('Your score is ' + str(score) + '! 🎉')

Add Some Emojis! 🎉

Emojis make answers fun and exciting! Add a 🎉 or ✅ to celebrate the result!

a = 6
b = 6
print('✅ The answer is', a + b, '🎉')

The Full Calculator! 🧮

Let's put EVERYTHING together: get numbers, pick an operation, do the math, and SHOW the answer! 🧮

a = 10
b = 5
op = '+'
if op == '+':
    answer = a + b
elif op == '-':
    answer = a - b
print('🧮 Answer:', answer)

Show the Whole Problem 🔢

It's nice to show the WHOLE problem, not just the answer! Like '3 + 4 = 7'. 🔢

a = 3
b = 4
print(a, '+', b, '=', a + b)

Real Calculator With Input 🗣️

Now the full thing with real input! Type numbers and an operation, and watch your calculator answer! 🗣️

a = int(input('First number: '))
b = int(input('Second number: '))
op = input('Operation + - * /: ')
if op == '+':
    answer = a + b
elif op == '-':
    answer = a - b
elif op == '*':
    answer = a * b
elif op == '/':
    answer = a / b
print('🧮', a, op, b, '=', answer)

Make It Pretty ✨

Add lines and stars to make the answer stand out! A pretty box around your answer looks professional. ✨

answer = 25
print('*' * 20)
print('  ANSWER:', answer)
print('*' * 20)
