To make our calculator functional, we need to define the arithmetic operations. We'll create separate functions for addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
def add(x, y): return x + y def subtract(x, y): return x - y def multiply(x, y): return x * y def divide(x, y): if y == 0: return "Undefined (division by zero)" return x / yThese functions are quite straightforward. For division, we've added a condition to handle division by zero, ensuring our calculator doesn't crash or produce invalid results in such cases.
