What is the syntax for basic math

I cannot do basic math in my playground as it is said in the lesson. It says I have the wrong syntax

If you type 3 + 4 and hit Run you will get a syntax error. If you type print(3 + 4) and hit Run you will get 7

Don't use ">>>" in the playground. ">>>" means an executable line on console. Console is a programming tool, which let you run statements by pressing enter.

Use the eval function. Example: print(eval(1+1)) 2 print(eval(5+6-4)) 7

In your code, if you change line 1 from >>> 2+2 to result = 2+2 it will work too 🙂

You might want to make your own question board thing. There is also a lesson on it somewhere I will tell you when I find it
