This is a simple calculator application built with wxPython. It provides basic arithmetic operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

To get started with this project, follow the instructions below:

1. Clone the Repository

   You can clone this repository by running git clone https://github.com/owenthcarey/wxpython-calculator.git

2. Set up a Python Environment

   It's recommended to run this application in a virtual environment to isolate the project dependencies. Here are the steps to set up the environment:

   • Deactivate your virtual environment if it's currently active by running the command: deactivate
   • Remove the existing virtual environment: rm -r venv/
   • Create a new virtual environment using the --system-site-packages option: python3 -m venv --system-site-packages venv/
   • Activate the new virtual environment: source venv/bin/activate

   Note: These steps are specifically required for MacOS users due to an issue with running wxPython applications in non-framework builds of Python. If you're not on MacOS or if your Python build doesn't cause the issue, you can create the virtual environment with the usual python3 -m venv venv/ command.

3. Install Dependencies

   Once your virtual environment is activated, install the project dependencies by running pip install -r requirements.txt

4. Run the Application

   To run the calculator application, execute the following command: python main.py

This calculator can perform the following operations:

• Addition
• Subtraction
• Multiplication
• Division
