print dx, "/", dy, "=", dx / dy
if choice == 4:
mx = input("Multiply this: ")

print mx, "x", my, "=", mx * my
elif choice == 5:

print "----------------------------------------"
print "----------------------------------------"
For the choice = input you should put raw_input
This is how you should create a calculator in Python...use its functionality

Well maybe they're just starting out on python. The title DOES say "My First python script" after all. This is definitely something basic, but nonetheless, it's good for a beginner. Good job on your first script. Thumbsup

This isn't a critique, its just a pointer to some of the really neat things you can accomplish with Python. Python, along with a few other interpreted languages, offer some unique features that can make programming a joy...this is one of them...G4143

I made one with funcions alrdy, but i like the this one better. more clear, but here is the one I made with functions

Code:
def menu():
    print "---------------------------------------------------"
    print "        Welcome To Nevets04's Calculator"
    print "---------------------------------------------------"
    print "1) Addition"
    print "2) Subtraction"
    print "3) Multiplication"
    print "4) Division"
    print "5) Quit"
    return input ("Choose an operation: ")
def add(a,b):
    print a, "+", b, "=", a + b
def sub(a,b):
    print a, "-", b, "=", a - b
def mul(a,b):
    print a, "x", b, "=", a * b
def div(a,b):
    print a, "/", b, "=", a / b
loop = 1
choice = 0
while loop == 1:
    choice = menu()
    if choice == 1:
        add(input("Add this: "), input("To this: "))
    elif choice == 2:
        sub(input("Subtract this: "), input("From this: "))
    elif choice == 3:
        mul(input("Multiply this: "), input("With this: "))
    elif choice == 4:
        div(input("Divide this: "), input("By this: "))
    elif choice == 5:
        loop = 0
