1,384 PointsWhere am i going wrong?
from flask import Flask
app = Flask(__name__)
@app.route('/')
@app.route('/<name>')
@app.route('/multiply/<num1>/<num2>')
@app.route('/multiply/<int:num1>/<num2>')
@app.route('/multiply/<num1>/<int:num2>')
@app.route('/multiply/<int:num1>/<int:num2>')
def multiply(num1, num2):
return' {} * {} = {}' .format(num1, num2, num1*num2)
I think i got the @app.route right i just need to know how to add 5*5 in my code? I think .. then again the whole thing could be wrong
from flask import Flask
app = Flask(__name__)
@app.route('/')
@app.route('/<name>')
@app.route('/multiply/<num1>/<num2>')
@app.route('/multiply/<int:num1>/<num2>')
@app.route('/multiply/<num1>/<int:num2>')
@app.route('/multiply/<int:num1>/<int:num2>')
def multiply(num1, num2):
return' {} * {} = {}' .format(num1, num2, num1*num2)

- for the floats, need to explicitly use “float”, as in, `<float:num1>/<float:num2>'
- the return should just be the product as a string:
'{}'.format(num1*num2)
- remove space between string and float method
- add space between
return
and opening quote characters - include default values for num1 and num2 if any route many omit them.
- “name” route not needed
Post back if you need more help. Good luck!!!
