You have the user inputting their choice into "choice" the first time, but then you switch based on "enter". So the program is inconsistent.

Also, please edit your post to add code formatting by adding [code] and [/code] around your code.

1. multiplication
2. division
3. addition
4. subtraction
5. quit

The "happy path" test works for me. What is your input that doesn't work?

So was running it on my laptop and it wasn't working but as soon as I ran it on my desktop is worked perfectly fine. So I'm not sure what the problem was.

Try creating a completely new project and re-paste the code in.
