You could structure it a bit better but something to start with could be(it works): def calc(n): print n def fibo(n): a=b=1 while n > 0: print a a, b, n = b, a+b, n-1 NOTE = """Enter 1 for the calculator, 2 for the Fibonacci sequence, or something else to quit: """ while True: loop = raw_input(NOTE) if loop == '1': forcalc = raw_input("\nPut in an equation: ") calc(forcalc) elif loop == '2': forfibo = raw_input("\nWhat Fibonacci number do you want to go to? ") n = int(forfibo) fibo(n) else: break Cheers Joaquin -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
