Remember to:

• Ask your Python question, not if you can ask or if there's an expert who can help.
• Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
• Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.

:warning: Do not pip install anything that isn't related to your question, especially if asked to over DMs.

Closes after a period of inactivity, or when you send !close.

your indentation matters. Not all of your code is contained inside the loop

[jagged dune]

ohh

[shrewd crest]

result = "num1" + "num2" is not what you want, as you'll see

[jagged dune]

right yeah

[limber kayak]

You're stuck in that while loop with no way to exit it.

Although yes, indenting everything over would put the whole code into the loop, so it would allow re-running from the top.

okay thanks

This question makes no sense to me. Using 'algorithm' interchangeably to mean 'app' or 'cli'... Low quality questions plague both academia and the Internet these days.

You should cover the basics like the difference between variables and strings first.

Then review for loops and while loops in python.

Then give it another go

[mental bay]

also you dont really need a .lower()

its a symbol

[wide sandal]

Also, for additional suggestion, Google a guide on how to make a good cli

This message isn't helpful. The OP didn't write the question, and is trying to learn about the concepts you mentioned by completing this task.

[wide sandal]

It is helpful, I've given them 4 points

Just because you are the sensitive type that wants to be a policeman about how I started.

[shrewd crest]

It really is not, and we expect better from you going forward. If you have any questions about our #code-of-conduct, send us a message via @mighty shell.

[wide sandal]

It really is.

Bar the comment about bad questions, which is hardly even worthy of bothering with as an admin or mod, I pointed out what it was they were building, so they can look up help if they need. I identified that they were using strings instead of vars and I identified that they might be struggling with understanding for/while loops.

I expect better of you in future, there's absolutely no need for such an overzealous ego

@wide sandal The comments about bad questions in a help post won't be ignored. We want to ensure this is a welcoming and friendly environment. I also encourage you to really reflect on the feedback you've been given about how you come across. If you have further questions, DM @mighty shell.
