Congratulations! You're submitting your assignment.

Comprehension Questions

Question	Answer
Describe how you stored user input in your program?	I prompted the user to enter their input and stored it in assigned variables.
How did you determine what operation to perform?	The user is prompted to input what command they wish to use. I designed methods to allow the user to use: add, multiply, subtract, divide, exponents, and modulos. Within these methods, I accounted for the written command and the operators associated with the commands. So if a user wanted to add, they could input either "add" or "+". I used a loop to restrict their inputs to only these operators.
Do you feel like you used consistent indentation throughout your code?	I felt like I did use consistent indentation throughout the assignment. I utilized the command + i add on to auto-indent my code, and made sure to go through multiple times to re-indent.
If you had more time, what would you have added to or changed about the program?	I would have liked to account for the last optional that asked that we account for parenthetical preference.

Great job overall! I have a couple of inline comments below that you should check out, but in general I am quite happy with this submission. Keep up the hard work!

Good use of a regex here to verify user input - way to go above and beyond.

One comment: I'm not so sure about the method name req. This doesn't really tell me what the method does, which will make code that calls it harder to read. I would prefer something more descriptive like read_number.

It might be good to let the user know what commands are valid.
