Hey @jaisalsinghani

  1. you can’t write return(main()), this is not correct

  2. also, you need to use a while loop as you have to input characters and numbers multiple times.

  3. use a break statement after the code of every case of the switch, as it is in the syntax of switch case

  4. use flag, whenever x or X occurs, we’ll set the flag to 1 and this will be a way to break the loop.
    inside the main function, you’ll have to write the following loop-
    int flag = 0;
    while(true){

    cin>>ch;
    switch (ch)
    {
    case ‘+’ :
    cin>>n1>>n2;
    op=n1+n2;
    cout<<op<<endl;
    break;

     case '-':
 cin>>n1>>n2;
 op=n1-n2;
 cout<<op<<endl;
 break;

 case '*':
 cin>>n1>>n2;
 op=n1*n2;
 cout<<op<<endl;
 break;

 case '/':
 cin>>n1>>n2;
 op=n1/n2;
 cout<<op<<endl;
 break;

 case '%':
 cin>>n1>>n2;
 op=n1%n2;
 cout<<op<<endl;
 break;

 case 'X' : flag = 1;
     break;
 case 'x' : flag = 1;
     break;
 default :
 cout<<"Invalid operation. Try again"<<endl;
 break;

    }
    if(flag == 1) break;
    }
