📦 Installation

python -m pip install nexuscalc

🚀 Usage

Interactive Mode (Recommended)

from nexuscalc import start_calc
start_calc()

Or using the wrapper:

from nexuscalc import nexuscalc
nexuscalc.start_calc()

Or after installation, just run:

nexuscalc

Quick Start

# Method 1: Recommended - Direct function
from nexuscalc import start_calc
start_calc()

# Method 2: Recommended - Using wrapper
from nexuscalc import nexuscalc
nexuscalc.start_calc()

# Method 3: Using the class (advanced)
from nexuscalc import NexusCalc
calc = NexusCalc()
calc.run()

# Method 4: Show help
from nexuscalc import nexuscalc
nexuscalc.help()

Programmatic Usage

from nexuscalc.core.operations import Operations

ops = Operations()

# Basic operations
result = ops.add(5, 3)           # Returns 8
result = ops.subtract(10, 4)     # Returns 6
result = ops.multiply(3, 4)      # Returns 12
result = ops.divide(10, 2)       # Returns 5.0

# Advanced operations
result = ops.floor_divide(10, 3) # Returns 3
result = ops.modulo(10, 3)       # Returns 1
result = ops.exponent(2, 3)      # Returns 8 (2^3)

🛡️ Error Handling

NexusCalc handles errors gracefully:

# Division by zero
NEXUSCALC > 4
Enter first number
NEXUSCALC > 10
Enter second number
NEXUSCALC > 0

❌ Division Error: Cannot divide by zero!
💡 Hint: You cannot divide by zero. Please try a different number.

# Invalid input
NEXUSCALC > 1
Enter first number
NEXUSCALC > hello

❌ Error: 'hello' is not a valid number
💡 Please try again with a valid number.
