This is a program to create a calculator using the Tkinter module of python with appropriate GUI and colorful interface

What is a calculator?

A calculator is a software that evaluates the mathematical expression given in it and provides appropriate output.

What is Tkinter in Python?

It is a python library used to make GUI(Graphical User Interface ). It has a lot of classes, functions, methods, and attributes defined within there are many other libraries like Tkinter they are as follows:

• Kivy
• PyQt5
• LIbavg
• PySimpleGUI
• Pyforms
• Wax, etc

There are many applications in the market that using python’s Tkinter library

like: Instagram, Google, Spotify, Dropbox, Netflix, etc

Tkinter’s useful method and function

Tk() : used to create window interface

Title: used to giving title to the app or the given window

Button: used to given inputs on the app or window

Entry: a field where we can see the action of the button

main loop: this enables the whole code to run in a window

Algorithm of the calculator

● Importing Tkinter module creating its window interface and defining some functions that are going to be used in buttons to give commands
● Giving exceptional handling function to show an error when required
● Now create buttons and entry fields to use make it useful and runnable
● Creating the main loop with respect to the given window name.

Program to create a simple calculator using Tkinter in Python

'''import tkinter as it is a GUI module'''

'''creating a vacant variable for further use'''
exp=""
'''this function is for creating expression'''

    ''' here we add the number as string with the globally vacant variable'''
    exp=exp + str(no)
    '''update the exp by using set method '''
