Why won't this work?

Question

I have tested this code in an IDE and it works but it won't on the SoloLearn IDE, it is a calculator.

equation = input()
print(equation)
legal_chars = set("0123456789-+*/()")

Answer 1

the code you provided doesn't seem finished

Answer 2

Jackson C cause the code in this post doesn't actually calculate anything, just prints the input

Answer 3

Jackson C i don't see how that would calculate anything, there's no math in the code whatsoever, did you mean "print(eval(equation))"?

Answer 4

why is that

Answer 5

i know that is why i posted this because when i ran it on my desktop it gave me the answer but on here it just wrote the equatipn again

Answer 6

hinanawi i just now realized i wrote the program in python 2.7 and sololearn uses 3 sorry for wasting you time
