🧮 1. Simple Calculator in Python

This script allows users to perform basic operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

💡 Features:

• Menu-based interface

• Input from user

• Error handling for division by zero

✅ Sample Code:

# calculator.py

def add(x, y):
    return x + y

def subtract(x, y):
    return x - y

def multiply(x, y):
    return x * y

def divide(x, y):
    if y == 0:
        return "Cannot divide by zero"
    return x / y

print("Select operation:")
print("1. Add\n2. Subtract\n3. Multiply\n4. Divide")

choice = input("Enter choice (1/2/3/4): ")

num1 = float(input("Enter first number: "))
num2 = float(input("Enter second number: "))

if choice == '1':
    print("Result:", add(num1, num2))
elif choice == '2':
    print("Result:", subtract(num1, num2))
elif choice == '3':
    print("Result:", multiply(num1, num2))
elif choice == '4':
    print("Result:", divide(num1, num2))
else:
    print("Invalid input")

🧠 2. Quiz Game in Python

A fun multiple-choice quiz with score tracking.

✅ Sample Code:

# quiz_game.py

score = 0

print("Welcome to the Python Quiz!\n")

answer1 = input("Q1: What is the keyword to define a function in Python? \n(a) def\n(b) function\n(c) fun\nAnswer: ")
if answer1.lower() == "a" or answer1.lower() == "def":
    score += 1

answer2 = input("Q2: What data type is used to store True or False? \n(a) int\n(b) bool\n(c) str\nAnswer: ")
if answer2.lower() == "b" or answer2.lower() == "bool":
    score += 1

answer3 = input("Q3: What symbol is used for comments in Python? \n(a) //\n(b) <!-- -->\n(c) #\nAnswer: ")
if answer3.lower() == "c" or answer3.lower() == "#":
    score += 1

print(f"\nYour final score is {score}/3")

🔍 3. Even or Odd Number Checker

A very basic utility to check if a number is even or odd.

✅ Sample Code:

# number_checker.py

number = int(input("Enter a number: "))

if number % 2 == 0:
    print("The number is EVEN.")
else:
    print("The number is ODD.")

📚 How to Use These Scripts (Script Mode Guide)

1. create and SAVE the scripts the files.

2. Open any file (e.g., calculator.py) in a text editor or Python IDE.

3. Save it if you make changes.

4. Run the script:

   • Using Terminal:

     python calculator.py
     

   • Using IDLE:
     F5 to run.

🎓 Final Tip for Students

These small Python projects help you:

• Practice Script Mode usage

• Understand input/output

• Write if-else logic

• Build confidence in Python basics

Once you're comfortable, try adding:

• More math operations to the calculator

• Timer or difficulty levels to the quiz

• Prime number or palindrome checkers in the number tool
