That's because your code is this: exit instead of this: exit() In other words, you're referring to the exit function, but not actually calling it. > 2. If all values are entered correctly, the result does not display. It > shows up as "The result is :" and just blank. That's because you're using a semicolon after the print statement. This code is really two completely separate statements: print "The result is : ";x/y It prints the message and then, as a separate action, it calculates the value of x/y (and then throws that value away, because it isn't assigned anywhere.) Use a comma instead of a semicolon, like this: print "The result is : ", x/y -- John Gordon A is for Amy, who fell down the stairs gor...@panix.com B is for Basil, assaulted by bears -- Edward Gorey, "The Gashlycrumb Tinies" -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
