I have Python version 3.
when the program begins, it prints out the main menu and then asks you for your choice - just like it is supposed to you enter your choice, and the next menu pops up, and below the menu it says "None" on the line before your next choice is asked for
i dont know why it does this or how to make it go away

sorry the menu looks funny(they are supposed to be shapes)
i didnt include the code for all of the functions but the same thing happens for each of the four choices

CODE BEGINS HERE:

def parallelogram_area(side1, side2):

    solution1 = float(side1 * side2)
    return solution1

def quadrilateral_perimeter(side1, side2, side3, side4):
    """find the perimeter of a quadralateral"""
    solution1 = float(side1 + side2 + side3  + side4)
    return solution1

def trapezoid_area(side1, side2, height):
    """find the area of a trapazoid"""
    solution1 = float(side1 + side2)
    solution2 = float((height)/2)
    solution3 = float(solution1 * solution2)
    return solution3

def menu_quad():
    """Display menu for quadrilaterals"""
    print(
    """

    0 - Return to main menu
    1 - Parallelogram (area)

It looks like you have print(menu_quad()) which prints
the return value of that function. When function has no
explicit return value in python, it returns None.

You probably mean to return the string in that function
instead of printing it there.
