Learning so much. Your down to earth manner ( including non editing out of occasional mistakes ) and good humour makes it all the more enjoyable. So big thanks!

[@Codemycom]

Thanks Gaven, glad you're digging it!

[@nikhilbhardwaj2916]

I took this calculator making as a challenge. And before watching you, I successfully made it. I grabbed the input as a string using get(). Like "2+6*7" or whatever.. and then using eval(), I calculated the result. That was a little smart calculator 😊... All Thanks To Your Lovely Tutorials.

[@Codemycom]

Nice!

[@shivamupadhyay8336]

yea did it with same logic, one line calculator kind

[@khushidhingra6524]

Thank you for providing such videos for 'free'. Loved how you taught us to build the fully functional calculator! But there is are some problems that you might face while using the calculator. You can't perform calculations on floats. And if you divide something by zero it will give you an error. This is how you can solve both of these problems- 1. Just change int into float. 2. You can put the divide function into a try block and perform exception handing on it. Hope this helped you

[@EnGentech]

how about using float instead of integer as data type and also introducing a decimal point. ?

[@luke_miller]

I tired smashing the like button but ended up breaking my laptop screen. Now I can't code anything. Joking aside, loved the super helpful tutorial!

[@mikem8915]

John, wanted to say ... keep up the good work. Short, sweet, simple ... always a winning formula. This is my first Python GUI effort and I'm glad I took a look. I can already see how to build some simple apps for "admin" type tasks. I haven't looked ahead, but I'm hoping you show us how to package this up for distro. I'm a data engineer so my GUI dev skills are a bit weak. In any case, thanks.

[@Codemycom]

Hey Mike, glad you're enjoying it. I haven't made a video to show how to package it all up and make a distributible file, but I plan on doing that soon.

[@ItalianGenealogy]

Great explanation and gave me a few ideas for my own applications. I would suggest, though, that all the repeated code within the button_add, button_subtract, etc. functions be merged into another function to avoid duplication. All you need to do is set the global math in each of them and then hand off to the common function. Thanks for your efforts in explaining Python.

[@Codemycom]

Sure..but for purposes of teaching concepts, I like to keep code as explicit as possible.

[@lakshjain7105]

Hi Sir, your work is great and specifically this course is very good and i have been learning tkinter here only. There is a suggestion that you might want to entertain: if you would stay more confident and less doubtful in your codes, that would lead to the students also being confident in your work. Thank You

[@Codemycom]

lol

[@mr_k4tz]

I prefer the honesty. It's good to know when your teacher is sure of something or when they are just 'riffing'. In the case of the latter, it's really instructive to hear them go through their thought process, just as JE does in these videos.

[@ileniavinciguerra5123]

Great tutorial! It really helped a lot, especially since I'm an absolute beginner. I noticed a small problem: if the user clicks the equal button before doing anything else the program gives an error since we haven't defined this eventuality in the button_equal function and it doesn't recognize the variable 'math'. I solved this by creating another global variable called 'math' at the very first lines of the whole program and gave it the value 0 (it could be any value) so that, if the equal button is pressed with no reason nothing happens and the program doesn't crash. I know there wouldn't be any reason to just randomly click the equal button but it still is a possibily that the users does that so I figured this is a good way to prevent everything from crashing :)

[@Codemycom]

Good idea!

[@udhayakumar-zt2dv]

I tried to implement what you said. but couln't get it. Can you provide me, what have you exactly implemneted?

[@ileniavinciguerra5123]

@@udhayakumar-zt2dv Before of all the button functions (basically at the very top of the program right after the import and the lines of code that create a window in tkinter) I wrote these lines: "global math math = 0" and then I modified every if statement in the button_equal() function by adding "math = 0" in each body to reset the value of the variable again after each calculation is executed so that, in case the user clicks the equal button before they have inserted numbers at any time, the program doesn't crash. I also realised the crash happens if the operands buttons are clicked before inserting numbers so I fixed that as well by creating another global variable right under the global math one like that "global isclicked isclicked = 0". When a number button is clicked by the user, the button_click() function runs so I added isclicked = 1 in its body and then I added an if statement in every operand function (button_add(), button_divide() etc.) like that "if isclicked != 0:" and then I just indented the rest of the code that is shown in the tutorial so that the computation only takes place if the number buttons are clicked before the operands ones. I then resetted the value of the isclicked variable in the body of the button_equal() function just like I did for the math one so I wrote "isclicked = 0". Hope this helps :)

Already learnt a lot of stuff about GUI through your videos, and I have just started! Keep up the good job, sir! P.S. I was also wondering if there is a way to store a previous operation in a memory by means of consecutive "+" button clicking or smth similar (without clicking "=")? Say for example, I type 2, then +, then 3, then again +, then 4: so that I could get 9 instead of 7. I am not that good with algorythms, however I am learning. Thank you in advance, John!

Hello from Croatia - 🇭🇷 First, I just want to say that I love your videos. I think that your explaining skills are a great. Second - I have a question : I built my calculator and everything works perfect but I want to know how the Entry widget recognizes "123" as one number and not as three numbers - "1" , "2" , "3". Is that just how it works or what ? Because we don't need to code anything for it to do that.

[@shivambhatt5856]

As we're storing those newly entered values to a variables that into a variable....Nd thus if u enter a "2" after a "1" it becomes 12....nd the interpreter as default takes the whole input for further processing. Hope it satisfies:)

Before you I watched this video, I attempted to accomplish this via my own problem solving skills. I literally attempted the exact same strategy, except instead of using a string variable, I used a boolean, so instead of math='addition', I did addition=True. I cant wrap my head around why it wont work, I'm sure there is something weird going on under the hood. Did I possibly just code something wrong using this strategy? or if you try this exact same method using Booleans, it causes some type of error?

[@Codemycom]

Who knows, maybe there was just a typo in your code or something.

Hi I've been following this with a few experiments from my side as well. I was trying to make another class which inherited the existing button class. The intention was you have certain common settings for all the buttons. I was thinking of click function as well in the class which would take the text of the button and put it in the entry box. Could you please tell what could be the syntax for the command. I tried putting (self).click, as mentioned in some link. But it doesn't seem to work. I would have to pass the word self to the function click in order to make it work which is not accepted as "self" isn't getting recognised.

[@Codemycom]

Sorry, not sure what you mean

[@SenthilManikandan]

Tkinter itself uses "mixin" classes to "internalize" and handle the requests, but when you create your button class it does not inherit from tkinter superclass and hence self won't be recognised when you try to pass it to a button class inherited from tkinter base class.

how to make numbers appear on right side like as in real calculators ?

[@Codemycom]

real calculators?

[@sahejsingh9732]

e = Entry(root, justify=RIGHT) by using justify=RIGHT the numbers will appear on right side

[@BiquiRaccoon]

I did exactly same coding with yours. But I keep getting this error [AttributeError: 'Button' object has no attribute 'gird'] I did googling but I can't figure out what is problem. Can you help me?

[@Codemycom]

You misspelled grid, you spelled it gird.

Hi i want to make this calculator ready for use to user , when he need to use this calculator i want him just clique on a file or something and this calculator show up

[@Codemycom]

I have a video in this playlist that shows you how to create an executable exe file.

[@kpoornodaysriram5568]

While running the code , The columns are showing gap in between eachother

[@Codemycom]

What did you do differently from the video?

[@اصنعهابنفسك-ر8م]

I have a problem with this line it stile say to me something wrong in this line Button_1=Button(root, text="1", padx=40, pady=20, command=Lambda: Button_click(1))

[@Codemycom]

Lambda should not be capitalized.

[@musakayasimp6456]

hello i just wanted to say that i followed the steps step by step but when i finished it says that f_num is not defined please Help

[@Codemycom]

You missed a step then. Check your code.

[@tinotendagarwe4929]

one thing i noticed is you keep repeating code like cant we inherit and use functions such as eval() instead the if statement

[@Codemycom]

of course you can do whatever you want. I repeat code to be explicit as I can so people easily learn.

[@jonathanameyo3608]

Hello Codemy, with this code i don't understand why it it is duplicating my answer eg if I say 2+3 answer is supposed to be 5 but mine is saying 55.Please assist me or anyone who knows what my problem is?

[@Codemycom]

rewatch the video, I address that

[@ipyb4u]

My program isnt working right, the subtract button isnt showing up?

[@Codemycom]

Check your code for typos..it has to be exact

[@farookk4744]

Why don't you use an IDE instead of using both text editor and terminal

[@farookk4744]

Still the videos are fruitful

[@Codemycom]

@@farookk4744 Because this way is easy for beginners and it's free. Everyone has access to these tools with no need to learn a complicated IDE.

How do i make the decimal button (" . ") work?

[@Codemycom]

?

[@ritishanand2668]

@@Codemycom like how do I get to add 1.1 + 1.2

[@Codemycom]

@@ritishanand2668 Create a '.' button and concatenate...I don't cover this in the videos but it couldn't be hard. Give it a try..

[@sarthaksrivastava6282]

also you have to limit the number of times one can click on the decimal button as it can't be used more than once for an input

[@Codemycom]

@@sarthaksrivastava6282 Good point

[@pimmpoll1471]

Getting confused, how did the calculator know that it needs to multiply or divide? The global variable math is only been given a string which "substract" etc...

[@nileshgaikwad4175]

for example: when you are pressing '/' button, the command is function button_divide, in that function math == division. I am also a beginner and thought over your question.

Pycharm shows error=5 nd no interpreter found any solution to solve the error

[@Codemycom]

Sorry, I don't use pycharm. I suggest you use the tools I use, sublime text and git bash editor.

[@sahejsingh9732]

it would be better if you have used "eval" function but i was the best tutorial

[@Codemycom]

better is relative :-p

[@RufusVidS]

Codemy prices have gone up substantially since this recording. The $27 mentioned (with discount) only covers ONE course ($29 actually), not ALL the courses as stated in the video. I am not saying the new price is not worth it, but it's an investment for me I don't want to pay that for just a single course either.
