Question

For the below code I need to add a history list with below conditions,

Objectives

  • Extend the functionali of the the calculator to save and display the past results of the arithmetic operations

Stage 2: Save and display calculation history of the calculator

In this second stage of the assignment you will extend the given calculator program to record the calculations, and recall them as a list using an additional command '?'.

Task 1: Study the given code in the answer box and extend it to save each executed operation in a Python List. 

  • Declare a list to store the previous operations
  • Save the operator, operands and the results as a single string, for each operation after each calculation

Task 2: implement a history() function to handle the operation '?'

  • Display the complete saved list of operations (in the order of execution) using a new command ‘?’
  • If there are no previous calculations when the history '?' command is used, you can display the following message                                 "No past calculations to show"

Code:

def add(a,b):
  return a+b
  
def subtract(a,b):
  return a-b
  
def multiply (a,b):
  return a*b

def divide(a,b):
  try:
    return a/b
  except Exception as e:
    print(e)
def power(a,b):
  return a**b
  
def remainder(a,b):
  return a%b
  
def select_op(choice):
  if (choice == '#'):
    return -1
  elif (choice == '$'):
    return 0
  elif (choice in ('+','-','*','/','^','%')):
    while (True):
      num1s = str(input("Enter first number: "))
      print(num1s)
      if num1s.endswith('$'):
        return 0
      if num1s.endswith('#'):
        return -1
        
      try:
        num1 = float(num1s)
        break
      except:
        print("Not a valid number,please enter again")
        continue
    
    while (True):
      num2s = str(input("Enter second number: "))
      print(num2s)
      if num2s.endswith('$'):
        return 0
      if num2s.endswith('#'):
        return -1
      try:  
        num2 = float(num2s)
        break
      except:
        print("Not a valid number,please enter again")
        continue
    
    result = 0.0
    last_calculation = ""
    if choice == '+':
      result = add(num1, num2)
    elif choice == '-':
      result = subtract(num1, num2)
    elif choice == '*':
      result = multiply(num1, num2)
    elif choice == '/':
      result =  divide(num1, num2)
    elif choice == '^':
      result = power(num1, num2)
    elif choice == '%':
      result = remainder(num1, num2)
    else:
      print("Something Went Wrong")
      
    last_calculation =  "{0} {1} {2} = {3}".format(num1, choice, num2, result) 
    print(last_calculation )
    
  else:
    print("Unrecognized operation")
    
while True:
  print("Select operation.")
  print("1.Add      : + ")
  print("2.Subtract : - ")
  print("3.Multiply : * ")
  print("4.Divide   : / ")
  print("5.Power    : ^ ")
  print("6.Remainder: % ")
  print("7.Terminate: # ")
  print("8.Reset    : $ ")
  print("9.History  : ? ")
  
  # take input from the user
  choice = input("Enter choice(+,-,*,/,^,%,#,$,?): ")
  print(choice)
  if(select_op(choice) == -1):
    #program ends here
    print("Done. Terminating")
    exit()
