Day 10 of documentating my learning journey

What I learnt Today
1.Build a simple calculator app project.

  1. Tracked,commited and pushed the project to public repo python-concepts.

About What I Did Today
1.Allow the user to enter 2 numbers for it to calculate.
2.By default input returns a atring so we have to convert the input to a float or integer.
3.Create a short menu that displays the operations that our project will do.
4.Create an if-else decision condition so that the operations we pass thwm in the elif and else conditions.
5.Run our python script.

Challenges I faced today
1.I didn't know that by default input whatever the value by deafult it returns a string.

How i solved this challenge
Converted the input of the user to a float.

Resources I used

1.Refresher python series by Bonaventure Ogeto on youtube

What's Next
1st week of Python series is done next I'll learn about operators and Expressions

Hey. So here's a little bit of suggestion to add code snippets to your blogs, in case you need it.
You could wrap your codes around backticks (`) and create clean code snippets.

like
print("Hello World")

or triple backticks, depending on what you need to show in your blog

python
print("Hello World")
