By name: calculator description: Python-based arithmetic calculator for performing mathematical operations. Use when the user needs to perform calculations, arithmetic operations, or mathematical computations including addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, exponentiation, and more complex mathematical expressions.
Calculator Skill
This skill provides Python-based arithmetic calculation capabilities.
Quick Start
For simple calculations, use the calculate script:
from scripts.calculate import calculate
result = calculate("12 * 122")
print(result) # 1464
Usage
The calculator supports all standard Python arithmetic operations:
- Basic operations:
+,-,*,/ - Exponentiation:
** - Modulo:
% - Parentheses:
( ) - Complex expressions:
2 * (3 + 4) / 5
Examples
# Basic arithmetic
calculate("12 * 122") # 1464
calculate("100 / 4") # 25.0
calculate("2 ** 10") # 1024
# Complex expressions
calculate("(10 + 5) * 2") # 30
calculate("100 % 7") # 2
Error Handling
The calculator will return error messages for:
- Invalid expressions
- Division by zero
- Syntax errors
Always check the result type or handle exceptions appropriately.
