Creating a Calculator Class in Python

Problem

Implement a basic calculator class that can perform addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division operations. The calculator should take two operands (numbers) and an operator as input, and return the result of the operation.
Example input:
calculator = Calculator()
result = calculator.calculate(10, "+", 5)
print(result)
Example output:
15

Solution

This solution is in Python. Our A.I. can create solutions in multiple languages.

class Calculator:
    def __init__(self):
        pass

    def calculate(self, num1, operator, num2):
        if operator == "+":
            return num1 + num2
        elif operator == "-":
            return num1 - num2
        elif operator == "*":
            return num1 * num2
        elif operator == "/":
            return num1 / num2
        else:
            return "Invalid operator"

calculator = Calculator()
result = calculator.calculate(10, "+", 5)
print(result)



The solution is optimal because it is simple and easy to understand. It is also easy to add more operators if needed.
